CHEAP AND EASY HOT WATER IN A CAMPERVAN
 
The Bobil Electric heats allows you to heat water electrically (12V, 230V or both), perfect for use in a campervan or marine hot water system.
 
The 800W AC version can be connected to your electric hookup socket (or inverter).
The 200W DC version can be used with your 12V leisure battery and comes with a fully programable 'Solaris' controller that will stop the battery being discharged and allow any incoming power from the solar panel or battery to battery charger to be used to heat the water.
The Dual Element tank can do both which can be run simultaneously.
 
The Bobil Electric hot water system can heat the water up to 75 degrees celsius and easily sustains a comfortable shower temperature in your motorhome or narrowboat for multiple people. Check out the timings in the product spec.
 
You can choose from the standard single controller for easy use, or the new Bobil Smart Controller for automated functions. These controllers display water temperature in the tank for accurate heating.
 
The Bobil Smart Controller also has built in fresh water and waste water level sensor inputs, giving you a complete overview of your water system in your campervan. To choose the right size, measure the depth on your fresh water tank, and choose the size slightly smaller than this depth. (e.g. Tank depth: 330mm, get the 300mm). Waste water level sensor is included with the fresh water sensor.
 
The 10L insulated, pressurised tank easily connects to your existing water supply and has integrated tank connectors and requires very little power to maintain the temperature. Suitable for all water pumps up to 20PSI,  and has ½” male BSP fittings which will accept all common plumbing fittings. If you would like to use a higher pressure pump than 20PSI, please contact us.
 
If you do not yet have your fresh water pump then have a look at the Shurflo Trail King 7 available to purchase here, and works brilliantly alongside our system. For extra safety, you can also add our thermostatic mixer valve kit to provide safe warm water directly from your taps without needing a mixer, excellent if you have kids in the van!
 
Key features:
Easy to install.
Suitable for water pumps up to 20PSI.
Common threaded fittings make it easy to plumb into your system.
Thick polyurethane foam maintains water temperature and reduces electricity consumption.
Includes drain valve for water tank.
 
12v DC/Dual Element Additions
These versions heat your water using excess battery/solar power so in summer you can have hot water for free! 
Includes the 'Solaris' controller and high current relay which monitors your battery voltage and stops the batteries being discharged. 
The DC element will activate when the system sees enough power to activate the element, so when you are generating at least 200 watts from driving, via solar or through a battery charger, the element will activate and start heating the water. To run predominantly from solar we would recommend installing at least 300 watts.
 
This system is supplied with bare wires. Product is CE marked. It complies with the requirements of the European health, safety and environmental protection legislations.
