Specs:
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.
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'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.

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 in this white metal hinge door. Now, if you are wondering about the differences between the InstaShower 7, 8 Plus, or the 8 Pro, as we have here, take a look at this product page, a little bit lower on the page, and we have provided for you some really good summaries on each of those water heaters. You can read over those summaries and determine which water heater is going to work best for your particular application. But, for this 8 Pro, this 55,000 BTU heater is going to heat 2.9 gallons of water per minute, which is greater than the average water flow of an RV shower. This features a mixing tank that's going to combine hot and cold water to eliminate temperature fluctuations, reducing the risk of hot water scalding.
The addition of this tank is going to add a little more depth for the install, but not by much, as you can see there. So, if you've often complained that your water changes temperature while you're showering or doing the dishes, this 8 Pro is going to be worthy of your consideration. Now, this standard size 15-inch wide by 15-inch tall white hinged metal door with flat lock is going to give you easy access for cleaning or maintenance. And as you can see, this is going to open up very easily. This lock is gonna be very easy to operate.
You're just going to lift that lever up, rotate it, and they're gonna be able to open it up. And so, larger sizes of doors are available when replacing a tank water heater with a bigger access door. On your screen, I am including a chart there showing you the different sizes of doors that are available for our 8 Pro water heater. So the bolded part number there is the white 15x15 that we're looking at right now, but we do have a black version, as you can see. We also have larger sizes, a 15x18 or an 18x18.
So if a different color or a larger size would work better for you, you can take the etrailer Part Number that you see there on your screen, pop it in the Search field of our website. That will take you to that water heater with the appropriately-sized door, and you can add that to your order. So, the efficient propane burner is going to heat water only when you use your faucets or shower. And the higher BTUs is going to make this a great choice in cold weather or for using a lot of hot water at once. The pilot ignition type is automatic, and this does feature a wall controller that's included with this.
And this has a large digital display, as you can see, and you're gonna be able to adjust the temperature. And this is also going to show diagnostic error codes. The temperature settings is from 95 degrees to 123 degrees Fahrenheit, and the water pressure for this water heater is from 14 1/2 to 116 PSI. The preferred pressure, though, is from 40 to 45 PSI. The internal safety components are going to protect you, your family, and your RV. For instance, this is going to automatically cut off the gas if the flame goes out to prevent leaks in your RV. And as I mentioned, the door size here is going to be 15 inches wide, 15 inches tall. The measurement of the water heater itself is going to be 13x13, and then the depth of just the water heater from the front to the end of our mixing tank here is going to be about 15 13/16 inches deep. If you add the door, it's gonna be about 16 3/8 inches deep. So this is going to be a pretty simple installation with the included hardware. This is going to use your existing lines and cutout. Temperature and pressure relief valve are required for installation. Those are not included, just so you're aware of that. And additional cutout depth is gonna be needed to make those connections in the back. Well, I think that's going to wrap up our brief look today. I do hope that our time together was informative for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me.
