24 VDC appliances?
"misia" wrote in message ail.from.there... I agree electric heater might be the most energy hungry element, especially if the water has to be retained and temperature maintained in the tank for 10 people onboard. This is something that I'm considering to built around hybrid solution. I came accross this Webasto heater: http://www.navstore.com/pdf/webasto/Webasto%20TSL17.pdf What do you think? I did not check your link, but what you might want to ask your engineer for would be a design for a water-to-water (Glycol based)heat exchanger to keep your shower water HOT. This could be done with off-the-shelf electric components if you have the space, and need only be configured to your space by your architect and engineer. The electric would be your seldom-used backup, and you could have your choice of 120, 240, or custom voltage standard mount heating elements (check off-the-grid, solar, and wind power resources for these items).

24 VDC appliances?
The exchanger you mention is the engine exhaust exchanger or engine cooling
system exchanger? Do you maybe have any links to practical solutions? I have found 24V water heater heating elements which could be used as auxiliary.
