Reliable hot water for your RV with the Suburban SW10DELC 10-Gallon Water Heater. Genuine Suburban OEM 10-gallon dual-fuel water heater with DSI (Direct Spark Ignition), 12,000 BTU LP gas burner, 1440W Incoloy electric element, and corded configuration. Fast 16.2 gph recovery when running gas + electric simultaneously. Includes multiple durability enhancements — porcelain-lined tank, replaceable anode rod, and one-piece die-formed control housing.

⭐ Fast Recovery — 16.2 gph with Gas + Electric Together

Standout performance feature: run both fuel modes simultaneously for a fast recovery rate of 16.2 gallons per hour. Individual mode recovery:

  • Electric only (1440W Incoloy): 6.1 gph
  • Gas only (12,000 BTU LP): standard 12K BTU recovery
  • Both together: 16.2 gph — meaningful improvement for high-demand periods

⭐ Dual Fuel — Gas AND Electric Operation

Meaningful flexibility across power sources:

  • 12,000 BTU LP gas burner
  • 1440W Incoloy electric element
  • Simultaneous operation for fast recovery

⭐ DSI (Direct Spark Ignition)

Direct Spark Ignition provides automatic burner lighting — no manual pilot lighting required. Meaningful safety and convenience improvement over pilot-light systems.

⭐ Suburban SW-Series Naming Key

Understanding the Suburban water heater model naming convention:

  • SW = Suburban Water Heater
  • # = Gallon Tank Capacity
  • D = DSI (Direct Spark Ignition)
  • E = 110V Electric
  • L = Relay
  • M = Heat Exchange
  • P = Pilot

SW10DELC = 10-gallon, DSI ignition, 110V electric, relay, corded configuration.

Durability Enhancements

  • Porcelain-lined steel tank for long life
  • Replaceable anode rod provides further corrosion protection
  • One-piece, die-formed metal control housing protects controls from the weather
  • Copolymer insulation jacket specially fitted to the tank to retain heat
  • Convenient exterior gas line connection
