Replacement Water Heater for an Atwood G6A6 6 Gallon Water Heater
Updated 09/03/2024 | Published 01/04/2019
Question:
Hello I have a 1983 Coachman motorhome. The water heater in it is an Atwood gas water heater. The model number on the tag of it appears partially worn off but what is showing is G6A6. Is there a replacement water heater for this? If so will there need to be any modifications to make it work? I don’t want to buy something I can’t return so want to be sure whatever I get will work. Thank you for your time.

Thank you for all of the pictures and information!
The Atwood line of water heaters went out of business a number of years ago so to replace your water heater I highly recommend the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR because it has superior performance to the older tank-style heaters and is more efficient as well.
Please note that the installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency, or gas supplier.
