Girard gswh-1m water leak & gswh-2 upgrade???
Went to prep the Rv for new season & when hooked up the water line i had a nice surprise waiting for me. Water was running out from my Girard tankless heater. It is clearly coming from the heat exchange, so must be a busted pipe. I had used the air method of winterizing so I'm very surprised that water must have been left in the system. Apon researching it sounds like this is a frequent problem for the Girard systems due to extremely thin sections of copper on the bends. Anyhow can't find any replacement heat exchange so my plan is to replace with the gswh-2 model. Sounds like an easy swap, but any advice or experience with this would be appreciated!!
Thanks in advance, and Happy Rv'ing!!
