2006 Big Horn heated tanks?

[muzzleblast81]

I recently purchased a 2006 Big Horn from an individual. It came with no paper work at all. I have read about some having heated tanks and water lines but didn't know if mine did. I was looking at the holding tank monitor the other day and noticed a button labeled "heat". I flipped it on and a little red light illuminated. Does this mean I have heated tanks? Pipes?

Thanks,
Craig

Hello Craig and welcome to this great forum.
Unless some previous owner installed a heating device for the tanks, your 2006 Bighorn did not come with heated tanks.
The little switch that says "Heat" turns on the LP burner of the water heater. And while we are on water heaters, do not turn on the red residential looking light switch when there is no water in the water heater. That is for the 120v side of the water heater and you risk damaging the element.

Peace
Dave

Ok. Thanks Cookie. I was wondering if the water heater would run off propane or just electric. Thanks for answering that question also. I am assuming by your statement that heated tanks wasn't an option in 2006?
