The installation that I have seen that I like the best is the one Loren mentioned where you install it in the lower cabinet where the shore power outlet is. You will lose the outlet but this installation uses space behind the false wall between that cabinet and the one the water tank is in so you do not lose a lot of space you would normally use as the outlet is in dead space between two cabinet walls. Frank Condelli came up with this if I recall and may have it posted on his website?
