Controversial Topics Several months ago, I added a private sub-forum to allow members to discuss these topics without fear of infractions or banning. It's opt-in, opt-out. Corey Click Here
I have a coach and not a 5th wheeler(might be the same?) but on our unit we have the option for both. When shore power is available we heat that way when we are on the road or camping unhooked we use the propane. There are two switches on our panel board for the water heater: 1-says 110V, the other gas/propane I believe.
I have a 27 Foot travel trailer. I kind of wish we had the option on our hot water heater. Ours is strictly Propane. I suppose that's ok though, since Gas probably heats it much quicker than electric. And it's only a 6 gallon heater anyway.
Now if we could only get a gas operated Microwave we'd be all set.
It depends on the water heater in the unit. Some are gas only, some are both. Most modern ones are gas and electric in the mid to upper grade RVs with electronic ignition.
