Quick answers
When should I move up to 9 Pro?
Choose 9 Pro for a larger RV, heavier back-to-back use or when the mixing tank and 3.6 GPM platform better match the household.
Which door size should I choose?
Use the existing cutout and trim dimensions, not the old tank capacity alone.
Can it provide continuous showers?
Yes, provided propane, water pressure and flow remain within the product requirements.
Add rooftop cooling or ducted heat selected for the RV roof, cabinet and utilities.
Add 15K rooftop cooling with a matching roof opening, ceiling layout and 115V circuit.

Balanced hot water for everyday RV travel
InstaShower 8 Plus delivers 55,000 BTU and up to 2.9 GPM for mid-size travel trailers, Class C motorhomes and households that use hot water regularly but do not need the 9 Pro mixing tank.

More shower margin than the entry model
8 Plus focuses on continuous showers, common replacement openings and enough output for everyday family use.

Replace tank recovery waits with continuous hot water
As long as propane, pressure and flow remain within the product requirements, the shower is not limited to six or ten stored gallons.

Use 2.9 GPM for regular family showers
It is aimed at regular shower use in travel trailers and Class C RVs without paying for the 9 Pro mixing tank.

Adjust burner output as water conditions change
Segmented combustion helps control heat output instead of forcing one fixed flame level across summer and colder travel.

Choose the door that covers the old opening
Choose 15 × 15, 15 × 18 or 18 × 18 based on the actual exterior coverage required.
The balanced choice for mid-size RVs
Its 2.9 GPM platform adds flow margin for regular family showers in mid-size rigs.
The output aligns well with common mid-size interiors and everyday shower demand.
It provides more flow margin for repeated showers and routine sink use.
Multiple door sizes support a cleaner tank-to-tankless retrofit.
Door options for common RV water-heater openings
Choose 15×15, 15×18 or 18×18 from the existing opening; the guide covers water, LP propane, 12V and venting.

Cutout, trim and utility requirements
The same heater can be ordered with several exterior door sizes for common replacement jobs.
- Minimum opening
- 13 × 13 in
- Door options
- 15×15 / 15×18 / 18×18 in
