    Hi just looking for some info. Going using a mobile home for temp accomodation for a month or two. The mobile had previously oil fired central heating but the boiler has died and been quoted alot to replace it . Currently the mobile is heated with electric heaters but has no hot water . Is there any quick cheap way of getting hot water for shower anyone can think of .

    How many will be in it? Do you have mains power ?

    You cpukd hook up temporary shower. Bucket, woth shower hose coming out of it, or buy the camping shower bags, boil 2-3 kettles full or heat using has ring on hob if you have one and voila

    A propane tank less water heater is your best bet, Rinnai are the market leaders but you can buy cheaper units which I cannot vouch for in terms of quality or safety
