The Suburban 5244A SW10DEL is a 10-gallon RV water heater designed for both LP gas and 120V electric operation. It uses direct spark ignition for propane heating and a 1440W Incoloy electric element for electric water heating when connected to shore power or generator power.
The “L” relay-style control system allows interior operation of the electric heating system using a compatible 12V switch. This gives RV owners convenient control over both gas and electric water heating when the correct interior switch and wiring are installed.
