  • Great product for older RV's, easy retrofit.
Outstanding replacement/upgrade for older RV's. I have used them now a couple of times and they always fit, easy installation, doesn't come with a door and if it's a retrofit replacing a larger opening water heater be sure to purchase the oversized opening kit which makes it look like a factory install. Ready to run out of the box and water temp was right where it should be. Install was really fast, saved my customer money and quality product with speed effeciency, no leakage, and corrosion prevention. ... show more

  • Easy to install
Nice unit, it took me longer to take out the old one then to install this one. Works great. I installed it in under 20 minutes. I never changed the factory setting for the water temp. be careful, it comes out very hot and it recovers fast

  • Great Product!!!
Like many others, I had the old Atwood in my TT. When it quit I went looking for a replacement only to find that they no longer make that size. Therefore, I purchased this one and the adapter kit for the larger 16 inch hole. Installation was a bit of a pain. First, the adapter kit isn't completely straightforward. Take your time and figure it out before you start working with sealant and it's not a big deal, but it is still something of a pain. Also, the plumbing connections were not the same as the old one. I'm fortunate and my TT has PEX-A so I was able to modify the plumbing without too big a problem. The big question for me was how much hot water it would provide. If I ran both the electric and the propane then my old Atwood would provide the shower with nice warm water as long as you wanted to stand there. We just got back from a week out and this one did not disappoint. I just hope that they do not change the standard size of the hole again if I need another one in 10 years!!! ... show more

  • Size specs are wrong on this site.
This water heater works great. The hot water is hotter and last longer then the Atwood one I had to replace. The dimensions on this site are invalid. I had to go to dometic to get the right specs. Other down side is I run it on propane and it sounds like a jet engine. It is much louder than the old Atwood water heater. I bought the conversion kit and the replacement was easy. It fit right in without any alterations. Replaced a Atwood 96165 GCH6A-10E 6 Gallon ... show more

  • It took me a week to install - Now on Jan 2022 it doesnt work
I liked the instructions and watched one video on youtube that made everything much easier to install. I fabricated a solid square from angle steel made a flange that covered the existing gaps and used an older water heater door that was the size of the original hole. It was a miracle that it fit as well as it did. I purchased a light and two switches from a RV store and made my own dual switch because it did not come with one and the one in the picture is no longer available. Wired it in the switch using an empty slot in the fuse box with a 10amp fuse and the ran the wires through a sheath and mounted the switches through a normal 120amp housing. It didnt work initially because I forgot to turn the valve but the water was scolding hot when it started to work. So be careful, the dual gas electric works and I even tested the gas shutoff and light. Make sure not to turn on the electricity side if the tank is empty and always perform maintenance. Over all it has worked great! the reason i am giving it a 4 stars is because i measure it against my home water heater that is also 600$ 50 gallons and i cant justify in my head paying the same amount for a 6 gallon water heater for an RV at the same price. Just doesnt make sense to me. Would i buy it again absolutely but still leaves that itch on my head... UPDATE: I used it 3 times since i put it in, I winterized it and now putting it back into service it doesnt work at all. There is power to the unit, the controls work just no heat on either gas or electric. very disappointing!!! ... show more

  • Easy installation.
Straight forward design. The extinction pack saved so much time.

  • Careful with your measurements
This did not fit the opening without having to build a frame and much caulking. Make sure you buy the right trim door because it is confusing. But once installed it works fine.

  • Perfect Replacement
This unit replaces older Dometic and Atwood RV hot water heaters 6 gal. (GC6AA-10E). The framing is smaller than the old ones so you need to get the door conversion kit to close up the larger opening on the outside of your RV. If your opening is originally 12 x 16 this is 12 x 12 and the conversion door kit is Dometic Part #94946 and is made for the 12x16 opening with exhaust located in center of door. Amazon does carry this conversion kit but in the product description it states that door catch and hardware is sold separately, THIS IS NOT THE CASE, the hardware and side panels ARE included in the box along with the new door! All worked pefectly! ... show more
