Volks,

Two questions.

I'm planning on installing a Hot Water System in the RoadHaus.

The leading candidates.

However, I was wondering .... yeah I know .... this is where the trouble
starts :)

Why couldn't one of these systems be plumbed directly into our existing
water system.

The heat exchanger could be plumbed in the water line form the tank, the
original faucet replace ... maybe even with one of those cool Canadian
Faucets. Maybe the original in tank pump would get replaced with the pump
that come with these kits. Instead of in tank, it could be installed under
that sink. In fact the heat exchanger could even be placed there.

Or the new pump could be used as an external pump to pull water from
streams, lakes or various other external sources.

Any Comments?

Is anyone currently using one of these Hot Water Systems?

Hitting the Trail Soon,
