Camplux AY132 Tankless Propane Gas Water Heater White 5L

Further to my earlier 5 Star rating....I've had the unit for just under two years and in that time I've had 2 issues that I raised with the seller. Their response has been absolutely fantastic and way beyond what one would expect given the passing of time. Each of my issues has been fully resolved with no hint of reluctance or blame shifting by them and just a genuine desire to sort the problems. I would absolutely endorse the 5 stars all over again and if there were more stars they would get them.Have only just got around to fixing up the shower after leaving it in the garage for months following a house move.Took me about a half hour to sort out the pipework, connect the gas and then run wonderful warm water. The only issue I had was worrying about over tightening the gas connection (mentioned in the instructions) but after enduring 2 leaks I took matters into my own hand and tightened it right down. (so that the inner pipe in the connecting bolt was unable to move). Absolutely brilliant bit of kit and hopefully my grubby Labradors will be less likely to bolt than when the hosepipe was brought out to wash them down. If I was still into camping I would definitely have taken this with me as the waterflow and temperature are so easily controllable.

The one star is knocked off because as other reviewers have said, the shower that comes with it pees water everywhere.. I just replaced the hoses/shower head with a normal one and it's perfect.Our boiler has been down for a month, so I was using a USB camping shower and a kettle, but that gets old really quickly, so when I saw this I had high hopes.All those high hopes have been realised - it works perfectly, and I've even used it to fill the bath. The house may be cold, but at least we're clean and can have a nice long shower to warm up.

Only fired it up to try it, wirks well off demand pump but goes through 5ltrs per minute maybe try smaller capacity pump for longer showers if water is in short demand , also works fantastic off garden hise pipe and unlimited showers then available.. better than shower in bathriom on mains water...going to fit into rear door of van for storing and hang on rear door fir shower when camping.

Using this as a temporary shower whilst having renovations in the house. As this is meant for outdoor use we keep this in another room rather than the bathroom with a window open to avoid any issue with fumes. As a result I bought a garden hose to run water from the bathroom tap to this in another room and back to the shower head. I aslo bought a small ikea trolley for under a tenner that this can hang off and can a small canister can fit underneath.The water flow and temperature is set on the shower and it provides a very consistent temperature water. It was very easy to set up and connect to the gas. I use patio gas/propane gas that is available at B&Q and Homebase. The smallest 5kg canister lasts around 4 weeks with 2 of us showering daily, so very economical.

Showerhead missing

We’ve a larger one for the stables so with the weather being colder thought we’d treat the dog too. Easy to install (plug everything in) and instant hot water.Our first one developed a fault that the online team dealt with really well and in the end decided to send a complete replacement . Anything can break or be faulty and it’s the way it’s handled shows if a company cares about its customers. Both overseas and local teams have been excellent and we’ve already ordered another large one for the yard. Dogs happy too ....though it only needs the minimum setting for the heat for him, and you must place it out of the wind or you’ll be continually getting the reigniter clicking away. Good product.

After moving on to site to renovate a 200 year old cottage; the caravan shower we had was terrible. A 10l immersion taking 15 minutes to heat, giving a 6 minute shower in a tiny enclosure. This was no use for being able to actually waken up in the morning so it was time to bring out the big guns of temporary showers!!!!!!!! This campalux is the dogs dangleys!! It’s pretty much exactly like any mains shower either pumped from an immersion or a combi boiler with great flow. Even with the water freezing cold, the heat exchanger can still easily cope to give an awesome shower. Ace bit of kit and just sips the gas. We had a small bbq gas cylinder that wasn’t full and it lasted 4 weeks or so with 2 showers a day (long showers as it was a novelty...... and still is!!) it goes hand in hand with the make shift shower enclosure in the ‘lavvyvan’ (old caravan bought for £50 being used as a shower room/ toilet) made from 2 ibc containers. I’m now running it on a 19kg propane cylinder and have changed the regulator. The current regulator has a Gauge which hasn’t moved in the past week!! This is definitely getting kept as a back up shower for when there’s ever a power cut and I’m considering using it as a hot supply for my pressure washer too. If it breaks, I’m buying it again!!

Worked a treat took lazyspa up to spa temp in 1/4 the time of electric.Not 5 stars as having an issue at moment.
