RV Water and Air Heating System for Four-Season Comfort
Enjoy quieter, more consistent cabin heat and on-demand hot water from one premium 12V hydronic heating system built for serious RV and mobile installations. Designed around the Hydronic S3 platform, the Espar AquaSystem NA combines touchscreen control, dual Silencio 2 air heat exchangers, and optional 120V electric assist for strong cold-weather performance and a more refined end-user experience.
Benefits & Use Cases
The Eberspacher Hydronic AquaSystem NA is engineered as a higher-value, fully integrated water and air heating platform for RVs, motorhomes, work vehicles, and similar mobile applications. It is designed to heat the living area and provide hot water for sinks and showers by circulating heated coolant through dedicated air and water heat exchangers.
This setup stands out with a 4.3 in full-color touchscreen, a more robust control architecture, and two Silencio 2 heat exchangers for greater heating capacity, quieter operation, and added redundancy. A metal coolant reservoir with an integrated 120V heating element helps improve cold-weather usability and supports faster warm-up when shore power is available.

FAQs
Can the AquaSystem heat cabin air and hot water at the same time?
Yes. The system is designed to heat the living area and provide hot water for sinks and showers through separate heat exchangers in one coolant-based setup.
Is this available in both diesel and gasoline versions?
Yes. The AquaSystem NA is offered as a 12V diesel kit and a 12V gasoline kit, both based on the Hydronic S3 platform.
Does it support electric heating when plugged into shore power?
Yes. The coolant reservoir includes a 1500W 120V electric heating element for lower-demand heating situations when grid power is available.
How does it perform at altitude?
The system uses a high altitude module and automatically compensates up to 9800 ft (3000 m) to support more consistent heater operation.
How is hot water temperature controlled?
Hot water passes through a thermostatic mixing valve before reaching the fixtures, helping deliver more controlled outlet temperature.
