Propex Malaga 5E 13 Litre Gas & Electric Water Heater

The Malaga E is a high-capacity water storage heater with an efficient gas burner which has the additional benefit of a 750 watt electric heating element. It provides a quick and efficient supply of hot water for showering and washing in touring and motor caravans.

Micro-processor Controller Electronics

The Malaga 5 water heater is equipped with the last Propex electronics for accurate digital control of the heater operation and safety functions. The switch panel features a 3 position switch for selecting either 'gas only' or gas and 230v'. If you want to use the heater on 230v only, you simply switch off the gas tap that supplies the water whilst leaving the switch in the 'gas and 230v' position. The red L.E.D on the switch panel lets you know when the gas burner is operating and also, by flashing a certain number of times, indicates various fault conditions.
