Tankless Water Heater for Van Life?? Testing the Excel for Carbon Monoxide and Performance

We tested our Van Life Water Heater for Carbon Monoxide…

Building a van can leave more questions than answers… and sometimes there’s no better remedy than a good old-fashioned test! In this video we ran three rounds of testing on our Excel tankless, ventless on-demand hot water heater.

We wanted to put the 'ventless' design to the test, and were able to confirm that it is indeed safe inside a van -IF- you provide proper ventilation for the unit! (We also found out what happens if you don’t! o_O)
