And i thought i was sorted with eh LPG water heater for the cruiser.
I was decided on a Morco F-11 and ordered one for Ely Chandlers. Richard called me to confirm before accepting payment and whilst we were talikng and he mentione dit needing a 15mm gas pipe to it from the cylinder. Reason is that it can fail as not enough gas gets through to fully burn.
Now i spoke to Morco themselves a few month back and they said that an 8mm with reducer to 15mm before the heater will be fine. I calle dthwm back today and they now say no it needs to be 15mm all through.
Not to much a problem as i still need to fit the pipe work and i am about to look into the fitting a reducer T fittings from 15mm to 8mm compression joints.
Oh and i chose the F-11 due to the horizontal flue and short external part of only 80mm. Not forgetting the room sealed part.
Now i am thinking on the normal Morco DB61 and the likes but i wonder how high you all have the internal and part of the flue and the external part. I see it is 300mm but have you cut it down ?
Also has anybody got one of these. My BSS chap says they are getting common on boats in the last few years.
Did you use a universal flue ?
