Bob, Did you use a 20amp. rated sw. for your water heater? Thinking of doing something to my 2955 Montana, But heater located under bath room so was thinking of using a relay and different sw. type.
Since the breaker is 15 amp, and the factory used 14ga. wire, I just used a good quality 15 amp switch. Just a thought, if your hot water heater is located in a place where a switch may be hard to install, you may be able to install it near or above the circuit breaker box. I'm sure the water heater is the only thing on that circuit.
Good suggestion Bob, but my c/b panel is on the floor below the frig. and pantry. The gas sw. is on the 2" deep wall of the commode room, so I will have to do something different. By the way I am a retired industrial electrician so no problem for me.
