Are There Check Valves Needed When Installing the Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater

Question

Question:

Just watched your water heater installation video and it appears that one or both of the brass fittings that screw into the back of the tank may be a check valve or something similar. If so could you tell me exactly what I need.

In regards to the Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater part # LSB44FR, there should be some sort of shutoff valve on the gas pipe, inlet pipe and outlet pipe per the instructions. As far as check valves go, you'll need to use the Camco RV Water Heater Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve part # CAM10423 on the water outlet but that's about it. The rest of the fittings would need to be obtained through a local hardware store.
