Product Details

The Raritan 1700 Series water heater provides hot water for galley and shower, offering reliable performance specifically engineered for the demanding marine environment. This 6-gallon, 120V AC unit features an attractive polymer jacket that resists corrosion from dampness, while the glass-lined steel tank is more durable than stainless steel for long-lasting service life.

Key Features:

  • Dense foam insulation provides better and longer heat retention than traditional fiberglass
  • Innovative heat exchanger is over seven feet in length and is evenly coiled throughout the interior of the tank, providing hot water rapidly and efficiently
  • Heat exchanger models can be connected to the engine cooling system, providing the added convenience of hot water when underway or generator power is not available
  • Tank protected by a 75 PSI temperature and pressure relief valve
  • Cylindrical design enables the tank to withstand more pressure than a cube-shaped tank
  • 1250-Watt immersion type heating element with 13-gallon per hour dockside recovery rate
  • Includes a replaceable magnesium anode to protect tank and neutralize acids in the water

Thermostat and Controls:

  • Ignition-protected thermostat is factory set to 120°F, adjustable from 110° to 160°F with a safety shutdown limit of 190°F
  • CFC-free foam insulation is environmentally friendly

Installation Specifications:

  • All plumbing connections on the same side to simplify installation
  • Hot and cold water connections are 3/4" male NPT; heat exchanger connections are 3/4" female NPT
  • Tank dimensions: 14.5" diameter x 16.25" high
  • Retrofits to most on-board pressure systems

Each unit is assembled by hand, individually tested and backed by Raritan's two-year Limited Warranty. The tank is covered by a five-year warranty.

thanks

Thank you foryou fast service, and knowledge. I will definitely be shopping again for my automotive supply needs.

Easy pleasant transaction so far

fast and easy best pricing i could find

Autoplicity had the air filter I needed in stock when NO ONE else did. They responded quickly and got my order shipped. The only downside was that the shipping cost (regular shipping) was quite high compared to things I have ordered from other places. Still, total cost was comparable to what I would have paid if I purchased it locally.

First time ordering looks good so far

Great Customer Service, shipping and billing address was different. They called me right away to verify this was no fraud. I will order from them again in the future.

great so far.

easy and hassle free buying experience with incredible prices

so far so good

easy

Autoplicity had a MSD Timing Twister that was discontinued and no one had in stock. I called 6 places before getting in touch with them. Ordered part and had it in a matter of days.

quick and good price

Great Price! Fast shipping and processing! Cant ask for more! A+
