Raritan 12-Gallon Hot Water Heater w/o Heat Exchanger - 120v

The Raritan 1700 Series Water Heater is meticulously designed for marine and boating applications, providing reliable and efficient hot water for both galley and shower needs. With a robust 12-gallon capacity and operating at 120V, this water heater ensures consistent performance even in the demanding conditions of marine environments.

Superior Insulation for Enhanced Efficiency

Equipped with dense foam insulation, the 1700 Series outperforms traditional fiberglass insulation by offering better and longer heat retention. This ensures that hot water is readily available whenever you need it, reducing energy consumption and enhancing overall efficiency onboard.

Durable and Resilient Construction

The glass-lined steel tank is engineered to withstand the harsh marine environment, offering greater durability compared to stainless steel alternatives. Its unique cylindrical design allows it to endure higher pressure, ensuring safety and longevity even under rigorous conditions.

Flexible Heat Management Options

While the standard model operates independently, options with a heat exchanger can seamlessly integrate with your vessel's engine cooling system. This feature guarantees hot water availability when underway or when generator power is unavailable. The innovative heat exchanger spans over seven feet and is evenly coiled within the tank, promoting rapid and efficient hot water delivery.

Easy Installation and Maintenance

Designed for simplicity, all plumbing connections are conveniently located on the same side of the unit, facilitating straightforward installation. The hot and cold water connections utilize 3/4" male NPT threads, while heat exchanger connections use 3/4" female NPT threads, ensuring compatibility with most on-board pressure systems.

Adjustable and Safe Temperature Control

The ignition-protected thermostat is factory set to 120°F but offers adjustable settings ranging from 110°F to 160°F to meet your specific needs. For added safety, the thermostat includes a shutdown limit at 190°F, preventing overheating and ensuring safe operation at sea.
