Gina, Nice looking job, and its something I've been thinking about doing in my Horizon. I wish they made a quick connect for propane, at least I don't think they do. Because I've been thinking about storing my Wave in a closet , then taking it out when needed and connecting it (setting it on the floor with stand legs I have for it). But if it isn't something like a quick connect I just won't use it as much. And the Wave 6 is much bigger than the 3, so I'm not sure I would have a good place to mount it. I don't have a furnace in my camper either so I'll have to think of something pretty soon. I have both the 3&6 and will sell the one I don't use. Thanks for the pics.

I tried out the whole works for a couple days this week. I may be in Arizona, but I am at elevation. It's hot during the day, and freezing at nite.

It did all I intended it to, including the storage solution, and I found a side benefit to the location I hadn't thought of... but it made itself readily noticeable.

The heater sits directly across from the nice big glass door on my bathroom. Glass door gets direct radiant heat, and heats up very evenly, and quickly... it very nicely warms the whole bathroom.. evenly. No cold spots! No cringing at turning the hot water off after a shower. I don't have to get out of the bathroom to dry off to stay warm. No shivering on the, er, throne, in the morning!

That sounds lovely. Better than a heated toilet seat!
