Totally Insane ...where do you guys find this S *****T

Speaking of water heaters I have a Bosch 1600 on the front of my trailer...
its good for 600 gallons of endless hot water with 40 lbs propane
but I'm very seriously thinking to change to a Jacuzzi model below :D :D

for sale at Lowes
http://www.lowes.com/pd_364960-35419-J-SP180W_0__?storeNumber=2790&selectedLocalStoreBeanArray=%5Bcom.lowes.commerce.storelocator.beans.LocatorStoreBean%4058e458e4%5D&productId=3606148&ipTrail=63.197.3.250&cm_mmc=SCE_pricegrabber-_-PriceGrabber-_-PriceGrabber-_-Jacuzzi+7.5+GPM+180000+BTU+External+Gas+Tankless+Water+Heater+%28Liquid+Propane%29

Here is the complete manuel

http://www.jacuzzihotwater.com/documents/U287-3189(00).pdf

Im thinking to change this model as my current Bosch unit only makes water from 120 - 150 , not adjustable :cry: :cry:
The problem with my low flow faucet @ 1.1 GPM ...it shuts off at times :x :x :x

this new model works with .4 GPM to start , only needs .25 GPM to run & up to 7.5 GPM ,
cracks up with as little as 5 - 10 psi water pressure
Water temp is adjustable from 98 to 150 with a separate included control panel
and has freeze protection to I think 10 deg F :beer: :beer:
Best of all does not need a stupid vent set up :applause:
Its even an outdoor model FOR USE in Mobile homes ...like that matters ??? :shock:
