Image Descriptor

The Fogatti 8 Pro stands out among other models by including a slim water-mixing tank to create consistent hot water temperatures when you use it. It prevents hot and cold fluctuations by blending hot and cold water together. The 21.5 square-inch tank acts as a buffer, allowing the heater to operate more efficiently and give more reliable performance. The addition of this tank adds a little more depth needed for install, but not by much. If you've often complained that your water changes temperature while you're showering or doing the dishes, the Pro is the Fogatti 8 that you'll want.


What size water heater access door do I need?

If you're replacing an old tank or tankless water heater, you'll want to pick a water heater with a door that will at least be as large as the current access door on your RV. Be sure to search for the water heater that includes the correct size you need.

Fogatti 7 vs. 8 Plus vs. 8 Pro

Fogatti's tankless hot water heaters are popular for being efficient and quality options, but which model would be best for you? Let me give you a quick summary:


Fogatti 7: Lower Btus and lower flow rate compared to the 8s. This can be a good pick, though, because that means you're using less propane to heat water. If you aren't trying to heat very cold water, and you don't expect that anyone else is going to be using hot water while you're in the shower, then this will be a perfectly fine option, especially if you use low-flow fixtures for conserving water. I'd recommend it for solo campers or couples who almost never camp in cold months.


Fogatti 8 Plus: Higher Btus and flow rate while being the same size as the 7. You'll get slightly better performance, and it will be more effective at heating colder water. The extra flow rate won't necessarily allow you to run both a faucet and a shower at the same time without noticing a difference, since both fixtures can use 2.5 gallons per minute. But if you have a higher-flow shower head, this can keep up better. I'd recommend it if you're likely to camp when it gets chilly overnight and want a little extra performance.


Fogatti 8 Pro: This is the same as the 8 Plus, with the addition of a water mixing tank. This tank adds a few more inches to its depth, but that generally won't be much of an issue, especially if you're replacing a water heater with a tank. I'd recommend it if any variance in water temperature is going to really annoy you.

Video Transcript for Hands-On with the Fogatti InstaShower 8 Pro RV Tankless Water Heater - FG68FR

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at this Fogatti InstaShower 8 Pro RV tankless water heater with mixing tank and this metal white hinged door. Now, if you are wondering what the differences are between the InstaShower 7, 8 Plus, and the 8 Pro that we have here, take a look at this product page on the lower portion of the page, and we have provided for you some really good summaries on each of those water heaters. And you can look over those summaries and make a determination as to which water heater is going to be best for your particular application. Now, this 8 Pro water heater has a 55,000 BTU heater that's going to heat 2.9 gallons per minute, so that's gonna be greater than the average water flow of an RV shower. This also features this mixing tank here that's going to combine the hot and cold water to eliminate temperature fluctuations, reducing the risk of hot water scalding you.

And the addition of this tank is going to add just a little more depth needed for install. So as you can see, it doesn't add a whole lot there to the back of this water heater. So if you've often complained that your water changes temperature while you're taking a shower or doing the dishes, this 8 Pro is gonna be a really good water heater for you to seriously consider. This larger size white hinged door with this flat lock is going to give you easy access to the water heater for cleaning and maintenance. And this door is sized for replacing a six-gallon tank water heater with a 15-inch tall by 18-inch wide access door.

Now, I do wanna point out that other sizes and colors of doors are available for this 8 Pro. So on your screen, I'm showing you the other options that we have here. You can see that the bolded etrailer part number there is the one that we're taking a look at. And we do also have a black version of this size door. So we're right there in the middle.

But if you're looking for a smaller door option of 15 by 15 or a larger, an 18 by 18, we do have those options available. So whichever one's gonna work best for you, just take that etrailer part number that's associated with the size and color, pop it in the search field of our website, and that will take you to this 8 Pro water heater with a door that's going to work best for your application. Now, the efficient propane burner is going to heat the water only when you use your faucets or shower. And the higher BTUs are going to make this a great choice in cold weather or if you're using a lot of hot water at once. The pilot ignition type is automatic (door clangs) and you can see just how easy this is going to be to open and close, and then secure in place.

This also includes this wall controller with a digital display that's going to let you adjust temperature and show diagnostic error codes. The temperature settings is gonna be from 95 degrees to 123 degrees Fahrenheit. The water pressure is 14-1/2 to 116 psi. The preferred pressure is gonna be from 40 to 45 psi. The internal safety components are gonna protect you, your family, your RV. This, for instance, is gonna automatically cut off the gas if the flame goes out to prevent leaks in your RV. So as I mentioned, our door size, 15 inches tall, almost 18 inches wide. And in looking at the measurements of the heater itself, it's gonna be 13 inches wide and tall. And then, the depth of just the heater itself is gonna be just about 15-13/16 inches deep all the way to the end of our mixing tank. If you add the door, it's gonna be about 16-3/8 inches deep. This is gonna be a pretty simple installation with the included hardware. This will use your existing lines and cutout. I do wanna point out that a temperature and pressure relief valve are required for installation. Those are not included with this. And additional cutout depth is gonna be needed to make your connections. This also includes an instruction manual to guide you through the proper operation and installation of this water heater. Well, that's gonna wrap up our quick look today. I do hope that our time together was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.

  • Will The Fogatti InstaShower 8 Pro Work As A Replacement For An Atwood OD-5001?
    I will start by saying tankless is definitely the way to go. They supply hot water significantly faster and more continuously than tanked models and tend to take up less room as well. Now down to the nitty-gritty. The Fogatti InstaShower 8 Pro RV Tankless Water Heater With Mixing Tank # FG47FR should work as a replacement for your Atwood OD-5001. I say should as I could not find any measurements for that specific model, so you will need to measure a little bit. The Fogatti # FG47FR measures...
