Camplux BW264BC 10L Instant Gas Water Heater Outdoor

Purchased two of these for a converted horsebox shower on our glamping site.

Easy to set up but cannot get either of them above 27 degrees C despite checking water pressure, easing off flow rate, ensuring blue flame and that it increase in flame when you turn gas up – not above sea level greatly etc etc – one also leaks from thin inlet pipe, unscrewed nut and found small black washer had split due to over tightening at manufacturer – replaced and sorted.

Am awaiting support response but these may both have to go back.

UPDATE:

Issue resolved and high phone bill to US support team refunded to me with thanks

It’s a great bit of kit! My first one broke after 9 months however true to the warranty word they sent me a replacement out very quickly and I’m back up and running!

We have 6 Easy to operate and install. Runs on hose pipe water and propane gas bottle . We had to cut off every gas regulator and fit an regulator with a jubilee clip that fits our gas bottles here in the uk. Have never found a propane bottle with a butane fitting so we had no choice. Once fitted with a new regulator works well in rain but wind can be a problem but we built a box surround to keep wind away. We also used silver heat resistant tape (for exhaust pipe ) to cover empty screw holes in the back on some where wind can be a problem. We also fitted a two way copper hose adapter with a red hot water hose for a hot tap as well as a shower head off the boiler with no problems.

Set up in garage, mounted on solid brick wall. In use Easily reached 38 degC with good flow rate. Used on Butane with a self supplied regulator, supplied regulator is for Propane. Seems well built with universal quick connect water fittings. Used every day for 3 weeks and auto ignition worked every time. Chimney cowling helps dissipate exhaust heat. Always use with Carbon Monoxide detector if not used outdoors.

Easy to set up. Used for washing horses. Gives a good flow of water a 40 degrees c.

Sehr schnelle Lieferung. Sehr leicht zu installieren. Wrmeleistung super. Wasser ist sehr hei. Alles super. Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen. Ruck Zuck heies Wasser. Preis Leistungs Verhltnis .

I bought this to replace a different model that the frost had destroyed and it works exactly as described – I use it to give the dog a warm shower after a walk. The big plus point is the drain screw. Once you’ve finished using it, turn the water off, open the switch on the showerhead and open the drain screw and the water in the unit drains out – so if the temperature drops below freezing it should be protected.
It’s a shame it doesn’t come with a cover but I found a plastic storage box that was the perfect size to cover it – just cut a hole in the end so the pipes go through and lined it with bubble-wrap – it keeps it clean and provides extra protection against frost.
The only negative was that there was no PTFE tape included when there should have been – but I already had some, so that was OK. And a shame that no batteries were included – but again I already had some.

Possibly the best thing I’ve ever bought for camping, huge queue at the camp showers so I’ve just enjoyed the luxury of a shower at my tent. Fantastic water pressure the camplux 6L pump, did think about the 10 litre unit but I now think that would have been a waste – nothing wrong with this unit and there’s only so much water I can carry to my tent.
My only complaint (and it’s not a big one), is that I can’t turn the temperature down any further – I’m not a fan of hot showers and I can’t lower temperature below 39 degrees which is a bit too hot for me; but I’ll survive.
Also gives us hot water for washing dishes, clothes etc.
Overall, I can’t give this enough stars.

Purchased the 10ltr shower for temporary accommodation during house renovation. Simple to control, lovely hot showers, great pressure and even a choice of sprays. No regrets.
Build quality 4.5 but excellent customer services bumps it up to 5 stars. Well made piece of kit, with the exception of a few (easily replaceable) parts. The shower head bracket is a flimsy white plastic bracket, with rough edges and (curiously) in the shape of a heart. At odds with the quality and design of shower head, which though plastic feels very solid. And the shower hose and fixings could also do with being a little more robust. After just a couple of weeks the shower hose burst open at the shower head end. Contacted the seller and couldn’t have been happier with the service. No replacement parts in stock for a month so they recommended I purchase a standard shower hose as a replacement part and they would cover the cost (which they did very promptly). Bristan hose, low pressure, cone to nut fittings is a perfect solution and it eliminates the slightly light-weight ‘hozelock’ style fitting that the original hose had. Couldn’t have been easier dealing with the supplier and getting a resolution to the issue. Would recommend the product and supplier.

Good water heater that does what it has to do! for future i would suggest camplux to improve the design on the bottom part of the heater, so all the cables and electronics would have better protection. besides that, works like a charm and heats the water instantly as advised.

Mycket enkelt att installera,enda trkiga r att gasregulatorn inte passar svenska gastuber,men kpte en p rusta fr en hundring och bytte ut den…sen r det bara att duscha VARMT och gott,har iskallt vatten ur egen brunn och det blir 40 grader direkt,hur underbart som helst, rekommenderar den till alla som vill duscha varmt ven i fritidshuset om man har vattenpump med kallvatten bara
