RV Hydronic Heater Repair
Model
The models ending in "E" were built with engine preheat pump
The models ending in "M" were built with NO engine preheat pump
Many units have been retrofitted with engine preheat pump

This model of Hydro-Hot uses 'standard' ethylene glycol coolant (Prestone or equal). Keep it simple and use the same coolant that is in your engine and generator.

This model may also be known as:

Note that the 200 and 500 series use the same components

NO STIR PUMP!
