Video Transcript for Review of Dometic RV Water Heater Door - DMC84FR
Hi there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at this Dometic water heater door conversion kit. So, this is going to help to fill in some of the gaps around your water heater. Specifically, will work with the Dometic six gallon electric and gas water heater that you see on the screen there. So, because that water heater is a little bit smaller than your larger Atwood water heater that you're probably working to replace.
This is going to help fill in some of that cutouts that it has nice snug fit. Now, I do have that water heater here. So, we can kind of see a little bit better how that's going to fit in place. So, this is obviously sold separately but you can find it using the part number that you see on the screen there. So, because this is a smaller unit than our Atwood, we are going to have these side flanges here that will mount in place once we pull back the flanges on the sides that are bent in for shipping.
That will allow us to use some of these included screws here to get those mounted in place. So, then it's gonna be a little bit wider for us. On both sides, we'll have that. And then, our door is going to fit right in place on top, so that our vent is still able to vent out properly. We'll also be able to pass our locking tab through once we have all those flanges bent in.
That will line up with our hole here in our doors, so that we can lock the door closed and then twist it to open it up again. We will use the two hinges that are included with and those will mount right onto the door on the sides here. Pass right through. Very easy to get put in place. And then, we'll screw those down onto our heater.
And these will allow the door to open all the way up to this point. So, it's not gonna fall completely open. It's gonna provide a little bit of resistance before it gets to that 90 degree angle. But it will allow us to then hinge the door up to close it once it's mounted in place. So, if you do have a larger Atwood water heater that you're replacing and that cutout is a little bit larger than you're gonna need for this new water heater, this is gonna be a great option to ensure that you still are able to have a nice clean finished look. And you're not gonna be seeing gaps around it and that sort of thing. So, really nice kit here to help cover up those gaps and help you to convert to that new water heater. So, that's gonna complete our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..

Conversion trim kit to fit the WH-6GEA water heater into a larger Atwood water heater cutout. White finish.by: David05/15/2022
Happy with etrailer. NOT happy with the product.
I replaced an Attwood 6 gallon heater and the new door kit is larger than the opening. The wings that adapt the heater to the Attwood cutout are fine but I won't be able to use the new door without cutting a larger opening in my RV. So I'm retrofitting the old Attwood cover by moving the exhaust port screen as far as it will go to the right and then cutting a slot for the spring catch that holds the door in place.

This is a very nice water heater. I replaced my old 1999 model with this. The conversion was easy and it fired right up!

- Recommended Replacement for Atwood GC6AA-9E RV Water HeaterThe Dometic RV Water Heater part # DMC74FR will work great as a replacement for an Atwood GC6AA-9E. They are both gas and electric with a six gallon tank. It will allow you to reuse the existing door already on the trailer. The swap should be pretty straight forward as they both fit the same size cutout and have similar connections.
view full answer... - Water Heater Door Conversion Kit For Dometic WH-6GA Water Heater Replacing Atwood CutoutYes, the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit in Black # DMC24FR or White # DMC84FR will fit your WH-6GA water heater. This conversion will allow you to cover the larger hole from an Atwood when switching to the Dometic WH-6GA water heater.
view full answer... - Is A Trim Kit Needed When Replacing A Suburban SW6DE Water Heater With A Dometic Water Heater?Yes, the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit for 6 Gallon Electric and Gas Water Heater # DMC84FR for the Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR is just designed to make the larger cutout found with Atwood water heaters more presentable since the Dometic # DMC74FR is a smaller unit. I did also check out your Suburban SW6DE, and it appears that the Dometic # DMC74FR has almost the exact same cutout dimensions, so I'm fairly confident the trim kit is not necessary.
view full answer... - Water Heater To Replace Atwood Gc6aa/10EThe direct replacement for your Atwood Gc6aa/10E water heater has been discontinued. I recommend the Atwood RV Water Heater Item # DMC74FR which only requires a 12-3/4" x 12-3/4" cutout. This is a standard gas and electric, 10,000 BTU water heater which recovers up to 12 gallons of water per hour. Your current Atwood requires a 16" x 12-1/2" cutout. Since the new Atwood cutout is smaller, I recommend using the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit Item # DMC84FR. It is also available in black...
view full answer... - Are the Brackets For the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit Included on Both the Black & White OptionThe door you're seeing for the Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR is a conversion kit. The black is Water Heater Door Conversion Kit # DMC24FR and the white is Water Heater Door Conversion Kit # DMC84FR. I reached out to the manufacturer and they confirmed that both the black option and white option come with the brackets.
view full answer... - Replacement Water Heater for a GC6AA-10E that is Compatible with a KIB Monitoring SystemYes, the switch for the KIB system will work. The Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR is going to be the correct water heater to replace your current GC6AA-10E. I reached out to the manufacturer to confirm that the KIB system switch would work with this water heater and the manufacturer informed me that the switch will work. Because this unit is slightly smaller than your current Atwood you will need the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit for 6 Gallon Electric and Gas Water Heater # DMC84FR...
view full answer... - Which Water Heater Door For The Dometic RV Water Heater Is The Correct One?The correct door for the Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR is the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit # DMC84FR in white, or # DMC24FR in black. You are not going to need to purchase a thermostat either, since the Dometic # DMC74FR uses an ECO thermostat that is preset and can not be adjusted.
view full answer... - Replacement Water Heater for an Atwood GC6AA-8SPKTo replace your discontinued GC6AA-8SPK water heater, you would want the Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR which is the WH-6GEA that Dometic recommends as the replacement. You would also want the door conversion kit to adapt it to the larger hole your Atwood would have used. # DMC24FR for the black kit and # DMC84FR for the white kit. The AT96117 that you mentioned is no longer available. We also strongly recommend that installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer,...
view full answer... - Atwood GC6AA-8P Replacement Water Heater RecommendationThe electric thermostat for your Atwood GC6AA-8P is not available as the parts and the entire unit has been discontinued which you are aware of. Consequently, we do not have those parts available and our best option for you, is a full unit replacement. I know this isn't an ideal situation considering you are just needing a thermostat, however finding replacement parts for this unit may prove to be challenging and frustrating. If you're interested in a unit replacement, the Dometic RV...
view full answer... - Atwood G6A-8E Water Heater Water Not Heating UpThere could be a number of reasons your Atwood G6A-8E water heater is not heating the water properly. It could be because: -The By-pass kit valves not set properly. What you'll want to do is put the valves in the proper position. The main purpose of the water heater bypass valve is that it prevents anti-freeze from going into the heater tank when winterizing your RV water lines, so this could be causing the issue you're having. -The thermostat is not seated properly against the tank....
view full answer... - Correct Replacement for Atwood G6A8E Water HeaterThe correct replacement for an Atwood G6A8E Water Heater has been discontinued. That said, we do still have a replacement option. The Atwood RV Water Heater part # DMC74FR will work as a replacement but the cutout for the unit will be larger than needed and you'll have to run electric to the unit since this one is gas/electric and the one you have now is gas only. In regards to the larger cutout, this can be filled with the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit part # DMC24FR or part # DMC84FR.
view full answer... - Replacement RV Water Heater for the Atwood GC6AA-10EThe correct replacement for your Atwood water heater is going to be the Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR. Like your Atwood this is a 6 gallon water heater. This water heater uses an automatic direct-spark gas pilot and an internal electric heating element to get hot water ready fast. Recovers up to 12 gallons of water per hour. Because this unit is slightly smaller than your current Atwood you will need the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit for 6 Gallon Electric and Gas Water Heater # DMC84FR...

The dimensions are slightly different, they are 12-3/4" tall x 12-3/4" wide x 19-7/8" deep instead of the 12-1/2" tall x 16" wide x 18" deep you currently have (there is not an option that matches your current dimensions). To accommodate for the size difference you will use the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit # DMC84FR for a white door or the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit # DMC24FR for...
view full answer... - Replacement Water Heater Recommendation For An Atwood GCAA-8 Water HeaterThe replacement for your Atwood GCAA-8 water heater has been discontinued by the manufacturer, however I still have a possible solution. The Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR will work great, however if your Atwood has a larger cutout than the Dometic, you may need a trim kit to retrofit this water heater into a larger space. You can use the trim kit # DMC84FR for white, or # DMC24FR for black to do this. This water heater has a tank capacity of 6 gallons, measures 12-3/4" tall, 12-3/4"...
view full answer... - Replacement Water Heater for an Atwood G6A-6EThe Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR would be a good electric/gas option to replace your Atwood G6A-6E. This model will have the same 6 gallon capacity and produces up to 12 gallons of hot water per hour. The Double-Panel On/Off Switch # AT91230 allows you to power the gas burner and electric component independently. The Water Heater Door Conversion Kit # DMC84FR (for white) and # DMC24FR (for black) are designed for replacing legacy Atwood/Dometic water heaters with a cut-out of 12-1/2"x16-1/2"...

- Replacement Water Heater For An Atwood GC6AA-9E Water HeaterWhile we do not offer any replacement tanks, we do have the: -Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR. This is a 6 gallon water heater that is powered off of 120 volts, and has a 10,000Btu heating capacity. Additionally, since the you'd be replacing your Atwood water heater with a Dometic unit, you'll also need a trim kit # DMC84FR for white, or # DMC24FR for black.

The Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR is the correct replacement.

view full answer... - Replacement Atwood Water HeaterThe best replacement option we have for an Atwood G6A-7 Water Heater (Gas Only, 6 Gallon, Manual Pilot) is the Dometic/Atwood RV Water Heater part # DMC74FR (Gas or Electric, 6 Gallon, Auto Pilot). This is one of the few models that will run on electric also so you can save your propane when at a campgound with electric hook ups. This is also fits in a smaller openind so you will need the Dometic # DMC84FR door and fit kit.

You can replace it with the Atwood # DMC74FR six gallon water heater, which will have the added benefit of automatic ignition. The discontinued water heater you have had an aluminum 6 gallon tank and manual ignition. Most any water heater will fit in the area of your old water heater.

view full answer... - Replacement for Atwood G6A-8E 6 gallon Water HeaterYes, if you want a 6-gallon gas/electric water heater then the Atwood # DMC74FR is the only choice. You should know that it is more like 20" deep, and its width and height is smaller so you will need the # DMC84FR door conversion kit to help fit it to the old opening. Your installer will use a few common hardware store fittings when installing the new heater.
