Product Details
AM 4800 13.5VDC Holding Tank Heater by Ultraheat®. As holding tanks being used in the RV Industry continue to increase in capacity, larger heat panels were needed to prevent freezing, the Model 4800 was conceived. This model came along based on consumer demand due to how some RVer's use their units. Many stated that they hardly ever moved their RV in the cold weather seasons, remained parked and plugged in the entire time. They stated that they would prefer to have a 120 VAC only heat panel, This heat panel displaces approximately the same amount to heat as its 13.5 VDC counterpart the Model 2400, is also controlled by the same type of built-in sensor to monitor and maintain the holding tank fluids between approx 44°F and 64°F (6.6° & 17.7°C) and is also designed to meet -11°F (-24°C) protection against freezing like all of UltraHeat other tank heaters.

Power is supplied through a 15 foot power cord with a molded plug at the end to allow the user to just plug and unplug into a recommended GFCI protected circuit to control the power. If you prefer to have it hardwired through one of UltraHeat accessory switch kits sold separately, the molded plug can be cut off without voiding the product warrantee.
Like all of UltraHeat other RV heaters, this panel has an easy peel-n-stick backing using our proprietary adhesive formula, designed not to breakdown and ultimately fail and release like most on the market, in fact increases its adhesion properties in the ageing process. The method in which adhesive is applied also gives it a stronger molecular concentration, far superior to the secondary adhesion process most commonly used.
Joseph Soptich was an electrical engineer and UltraHeat® founder who developed the game-changing heating system. This system was first introduced to manufacturers in 1988 and it was promptly recognized as the "standard" to now be used in the expanding overseas caravan, motorhome, and leisure vehicle industries. Today, UltraHeat products remain one of the RV industry's leading product designs. They can work on RV tanks, drain pipes, and elbows and their deicing heat element is perfect for 4-season campers and cold weather camping. 100% made in the USA, UltraHeat products come with decades of road-tested, proven performance and definitely will protect and prevent holding tanks and pipes from freezing up.
