It finally went kaput

Turned on the propane for hot water this morning and . . . nothing. The PrecisionTemp finally died. There's no sound from the blower. No hot water. Looks like we'll be making that trip to the dealer sooner than we expected.

I'm recalling how my grandmother, who never had a hot water heater in her house, managed to get her shower and wash her hair. Brrrrrrrrrrr!

Sorry you don't have hot water! My wife would be looking for a new husband or a new motor-home. Good luck on getting fixed quickly!

We waiting on a call back from the dealer for an appointment.

I don't do cold showers. There are enough strange noises coming the bathroom when hubby takes his showers. Fortunately, our clubhouse does have showers (with hot water) available.

When we find out what went wrong, I'll post a followup.

My grandmothers had wood stoves with hot water reservoirs built in. Nice in the Michigan winters, not so nice in the summer though.
