About the Suburban SW6DELC RV Water Heater

The Suburban 5324A SW6DELC is a 6-gallon gas/electric RV water heater designed for propane and 120V electric operation. It uses direct spark ignition for LP gas heating and a 1440W electric element for campground or generator-powered electric water heating.

This LC version includes a factory power cord for the 120V electric side and uses a 12V DC relay-style control setup for interior operation. It is a good replacement option for compatible Suburban 6-gallon gas/electric DSI installations where the cabinet opening, door style, plumbing, gas line, and wiring requirements match.
