    I don't see how an 11 gallon hot water tank could fit under your sink!

    Here's a 6 gallon model listed, with documentation links...

    Maybe they are basically the same.

    Is it possible for you to post a photo of under your sink with the hot water tank? I found this thread, but it may not clarify what you've got going on.

    Our 2013 tank was about 3 gal.  There is an electrical plug in by the tank under the sink make sure the air is out of the tank before plugging in the cord.  I always unplug the tank power cord when done and breaking camp.  If you do not have water in the tank and plug it in, you might burn out the heating element.

    Hi, I have a 2014 T@B maxx Q set up. The water heater is under the sink....and I have NO idea how it works...nothing. Anyone out in
    T@B-land who can help me? I bought the trailer used....in the file the previous owners gave me there is NO information on it and nothing in the TAB owner's manual. UGH!! Tried online and can't find 11 gallon Bradfordwhite manual. What am I missing?

    I'd love to have hot water as I am on a trip.

    Yes, I know I should have tried the water heater BEFORE I left....but didn't want to fill the tank and thought this would be an easy set up, boy was I wrong!! I am "plugged" into the city water port. Cold runs fine, so I know water is/should be available for the heater. Water comes out when I turn on HOT faucet....I am hoping all I need to do is plug in the water heater....BUT, I want to make sure I don't screw up the system!!!

    Thank you in advance for help and/or advice!!

    Assuming that it's an electric water heater, it won't work if you're not plugged into shore power. Could that be the problem?

    Hi @weaseldog, we just purchased a 2014 T@B Q last week and I'm guessing we have the same water heater. Mine is a Bradford White 2-gallon electric water heater model M1-2U6SS.

    Here is a link to the spec sheet that shows a picture of it: https://tinyurl.com/y9mr8hc4

    And here is a link to the user manual: http://www.bradfordwhite.com/sites/default/files/product_literature/238-44933-00E.pdf

    Hope that helps!
