It is possible that we have old answers that point to products we no longer carry but I do have a solution for you.
Recently Dometic bought Atwood, and has been discontinuing most of the Atwood branded product, including the GCH6AA-10E.
The only replacement for your Atwood is the Dometic # DMC74FR. Like your Atwood, it is 6 gallons, and runs on propane or electric, and has an automatic pilot. Because it is a little smaller in size you will need the Dometic # DMC84FR kit that includes... view full answer...
You are correct, the direct replacement for the Atwood GC6AA-10E Water Heater has been discontinued. I recommend the Atwood, # DMC74FR for best alternative replacement. This water heater requires a 12-3/4" x 12-3/4" cutout and is a standard gas and electric, 10,000 BTU water heater that recovers up to 12 gallons of water per hour. Your current unit requires a 16" x 12-1/2" cutout the needed cutout for the Atwood, # DMC74FR is smaller so I recommend using the Water Heater Door Conversion... view full answer...
The 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.

We have what you need. For your setup I recommend the following:
Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU # FR93FR.
Replacement Access Door for Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - 18" x 18" # FR73FR.
This unit will fill the void left behind by your old water heater and the 18x18 inch door will cover it all up for you. view full answer...
The two part numbers you are looking at are the same units. One is the manufacturers (FS06B1) and the other is ours # LSB64FR.
When it comes to the opening size that you need to install this hot water heater, we state that you need a 13" wide x 13" tall x 17-3/4" deep because of the minor imperfections in the shape of the hot water heater. The measurements are not perfect as they are in the image, so this way you will be safe if you have the recommended opening size. view full answer...
Because the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater, model # FR93FR that you linked to, and other similar models, are most commonly mounted in compartments with exterior access doors that are not heated, the manufacturer recommends that they be winterized when temps drop below 39 degrees to prevent freeze damage.

The 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 # DMC24FR. view full answer...
Excellent question, and tankless water heaters like those from Furrion or Fogatti will actually use less propane than their tank counterparts. The reason for that is the tankless heaters only use propane as the water is being used, so if you hop in for a quick shower, for example, propane will only be used when you have the hot water on. Tank heaters, on the other hand, heat the whole tank of water (and take much longer to heat), so even if you don't use the whole tank of hot water with... view full answer...
The rough opening of the Atwood GC10-2E Water heating you are removing is 16" tall X 15-1/2" tall X 20-7/8" deep. The Furrion # FR93FR enclosure measurements (that match the rough opening call) is 12-3/4" wide X 12-3/4" tall X 23-1/2" deep.
So you can see that the hole left by the Atwood is much larger than the size of the Furrion. Furrion recommends that your installer use 1.5" thick materials to frame in the new size opening and to place a support between the water heater and the... view full answer...

The Dometic RV Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 12 Volt - 8,800 Btu - 6 Gal Tank Item AT96121 is the direct replacement for the GC6AA-10E. Unfortunately it is out of stock with no expected restock date.
Instead I recommend the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU - 16" x 16" Door Item # FR98SR. Its dimensions are 19-3/16" deep x 12-5/8" tall x 12-13/16" wide. It provides 19+ gallons of hot water per hour and has a heating capacity of 13,000 to... view full answer...
The 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...
The Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU # FR93FR will be a great tankless replacement for your Atwood GC6AA-10E. The Furrion tankless is 12-5/8" tall so it will fit in your 13" under your drawer. To confirm a fit the other dimensions are 19-3/16" deep x 12-13/16" wide.
You can add a door, Replacement Access Door for Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - 16" x 16" # FR43FR, as long as you aren't using the drawer above. view full answer...
You can install a larger tank but that is all based on the space you have in your camper/RV and whether or not you're willing to possibly cut a bigger cutout hole in the wall of your camper/RV. An in stock alternative to the # DMC74FR would be the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU Item # FR93FR. It has similar dimensions and can offer a a higher gallon output per hour at a similar cost. view full answer...
You have the parts needed right on the money.
To replace your Atwood GC 6AA-10E you will indeed need the Dometic # DMC74FR you were looking at, and since it fits an RV cutout that is a bit smaller you will indeed need the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit # DMC84FR.
Lastly you will need to have professional install the water heater.

There are 3 doors that work with the Furrion tankless water heater.
For a 16" x 16" door use # FR43FR
For a 16" X 18" door use # FR63FR
For a 18" X 18" door use # FR73FR
I would choose the smallest door unless I was working with an existing mount from a previous installation.

The Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR will work to replace your current Atwood g6a-7 water heater. 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 # DMC24FR for a black door.

Yes, 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. view full answer...
You can still use the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU # FR93FR with the Access Door for Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - 16" x 16" # FR43FR, but in order to do so, you would need to modify the size of the opening to ensure a fit, as mentioned in the instructions, which I have linked for you below.
That would be the only way to ensure you get the proper fit to mount the access door. I have added a link below to a video review for you to check out... view full answer...
Many older Atwood water heaters have been discontinued, the most straight forward replacement for yours currently is the Dometic RV Water Heater - Gas and Electric - Automatic Pilot - 120 Volt - 10,000 Btu - Item # DMC74FR. This is a 6 gallon gas/electric like you currently have with an automatic pilot. This uses 120V power and comes with the switch panel to operate it. The Double-Panel On/Off Switch # AT91230 will allow you to power the electric and gas components on and off individually.... view full answer...
Yes, the only difference is that the # FR98SR comes with the 16" door. With the # FR93FR you can select one of three doors: small 16" X 16" # FR43FR, medium 16" X 18" # FR63FR, and large 18" X 18" # FR73FR.
This will be of benefit to users who need a different door size.
I would use Alpha # AL33FJ butyl tape to seal the edges from the heater to the outside wall. view full answer...

So long as you have the appropriate cut out size, you can replace your Atwood GC6AA-10E with the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR93FR.
The Atwood heater measures 12-1/2" tall x 16" wide x 18" deep while the Furrion measures 12-5/8" tall x 12-13/16" wide x 19-3/16" deep, so it is a bit taller and has more depth, so you'll want to confirm you have that amount of space. If so, the Furrion will be a fit for you, and you can add a door as well, the 16" x 16" # FR43FR. view full answer...
We do not carry the tank only as a replacement part but I will have a solution. You can replace it with the Atwood # DMC74FR six gallon water heater, which will have the added benefit of automatic ignition.

We do have a water heater that you can use as a replacement for your Atwood GC6AA-10E, but this particular water heater has been discontinued, so you'd need a different option. You'll just need to ensure the heater fits in the same cut out as the 12-1/2" tall x 16" wide x 18" deep Atwood, and the best option for that is from Fogatti, which fits a 13" tall x 13" wide x 17-3/4" deep cut out.

I am a big fan of tankless water heaters, especially for campers that used for boondocking, off-grid or whichever term you choose. Connected or not connected to shore power, this is a great option. I like the on demand feature that provides as much or as little hot water as you need, as long as you have propane, without wasting fuel to keep water warm when it is not being used.

The GCH6A-10E is a 6 gallon water heater so you could replace it with the Dometic RV Water Heater - Gas and Electric - Automatic Pilot - 120 Volt - 10,000 Btu - 6 Gal Tank # DMC74FR but I highly recommend swapping from a standard RV water heater to a tankless system.
For a tankless system I recommend the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU - 16" x 16" Door Item # FR98SR. It has similar dimensions at 12-5/8L x 12-13/16W x 19-3/16D so you'll need to make... view full answer...

It is possible this Furrion unit will work as a replacement for your Atwood OD-5001 but it depends on the cut out space you have, as well as door size.

It is 12-5/8" L x 12-13/16" W x 19-3/16" D so you'll need to make slight alterations to your cutout hole to fill in the gap but the performance output of this unit will be worth the work. The on-demand hot water and... view full answer...
The Atwood water heaters had some of the biggest cutout wall openings, so any unit you find to replace it will require some trim and/or backing work to mount in your RV. The cutout on your Atwood should be about 16" tall X 15-1/2" Tall X 20-7/8" Deep.
If you go with the Fogatti # LSB64FR Tankless Water Heater the recommended cut out is 13" wide x 13" tall x 17-3/4" deep. You will need to frame-in a reduction to the opening to fit the new water heater. It is recommended that you use... view full answer...

Really the best way to determine the fit of a tankless water heater in your 5th wheel is by the size of the cut out you have. This is the most important thing in regards to a fit, but of course you will also need to have connections there for propane and 12 volt power, though those will already be there from your previous water heater, assuming you had a gas/12 volt heater. So what you will need to do is know the size of your cut out, and you can choose the right tankless heater that way.... view full answer...

All of the Furrion tankless water heaters are going to use the same cutout dimensions listed below:

- Between 12 5/8” - 12 3/4” tall
- Min. 23 1/2” deep

If your cutout is larger than the sizes given, you may need to add additional blocking to help support the water heater. I have listed out the different size options... view full answer...
I still recommend the Furrion water heater but you may need to choose a different door size with it to fully cover your current cutout hole.

If you don't have the depth then the Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 41,800 Btu - White Item # LSB64FR ( # LSB44FR for black ) has a cutout size of 13" wide x 13" tall x 17-3/4" deep so you'll have to cut an... view full answer...
A 20lb tank of propane will provide @ 432000 BTU hours and a water heater typically uses around 8800 BTU to heat a 6 gallon tank of water. If you used 1 tank of water for each showers, that's about 50 showers off a 20-lb propane tank. You'll need to compare your specific hot water heater and the size of your propane supply to get an exact number but it's generally around 2% of the total supply.
The Furrion Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR uses between 13,000 - 60,000 Btu per hour depending... view full answer...
Yes, you can adjust your cutout dimensions and use the 18" x 18" Replacement Access Door for Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater, # FR73FR. Installing the 60,000 BTU Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater, # FR93FR.

The tankless water heaters we offer require wiring to be connected and do not have the telephone style cable you are referring to however; the wiring portion and instillation is very straight forward.

I recommend the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU - 16" x 16" Door Item # FR98SR as there currently aren't any Atwood water heaters available at this time due to the pandemic. It has similar dimensions at 12-5/8L x 12-13/16W x 19-3/16D so you'll need to make slight alterations to your cutout hole to fill in the gap but the performance output of this unit will be worth the work.

The difference between the three Furrion Tankless Water Heater part numbers you mentioned is just the door configuration. The part # FR93FR comes without a door, part # FR68SR comes with an 18 by 18 inch door, and part # FR98SR comes with a 16 by 16 inch door. We also have an 18 by 16 inch door part # FR63FR which you'd need to use with the # FR93FR if that's the size that would work the best. view full answer...
I may have a solution for you, but we don't have any hot water heaters that have a stainless steel door. However, I don't see any reason that you couldn't paint the door of the Furrion # FR98SR as long as you sanded it down to get the paint off of it and made sure not to seal up the vents.
With that said, if you're looking for a black water heater you could potentially use the Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 41,800 Btu - Black # LSB44FR, which is a great alternative.... view full answer...
That smell is mostly likely hydrogen sulfide, it is an anaerobic bacteria that that is not uncommon for RV water systems due to the periods of time they set dormant. If you want to replace your water heater we have a great option in the Fogatti RV Water Heater # LSB64FR. I suggest you first take some measurements to verify fitment however, specs available to me show the dimensions of the Atwood at 16" W x 12-1/2" H x 18"D. For the Fogatti RV Water Heater # LSB64FR, overall dimensions... view full answer...
The Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU - 16" x 16" Door # FR98SR will come with everything you need to install it. You will need some plumber supplies like Teflon tape and such but you can source those at a local hardware store very easy.
However I do recommend getting or replacing your water heater temp and pressure relief valve.

I have other options for you, but Dometic bought out Atwood and discontinued most of the Atwood products. We do not carry any water heaters with a manual pilot or set-up like you are talking about.
Now would be a great time to upgrade to a tankless water heater like the Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater # LSB44FR. The Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater # LSB44FR is a tankless, on-demand water heater that produces up to 90 gallons of hot water flow per hour. The efficient, gas power keeps... view full answer...
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. view full answer...
Dometic bought Atwood some time ago and has slowly been phasing all of the Atwood models out so we do have a replacement for you but not the exact same model. The Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR would be the closest replacement 6 gallon water heater to your GCH6A-10E SP.
That being said I highly recommend getting away from tanked systems altogether and getting the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR98SR. This unit features a heating capacity of 13,000 - 60,000 Btu, well above that... view full answer...
The best replacement option we offer for a Atwood G6A-8E RV Water Heater is the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater part # FR68SR. It won't be a direct replacement but still pretty easy nonetheless as they are very similar. That said, you won't have to worry about enlarging the cutout or anything like that, just switching over some fittings and wires is all. The tankless design means pretty much an endless supply of hot water which is a big improvement over the six gallon tank you'll be replacing. view full answer...
Yes, the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU - 16" x 18" Door # FR48SR is exactly what you're looking for.

The Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR98SR will fit into the same opening as your Suburban SW6D. You will have to wire in the new controller for the water heater. Currently the only door color offered for the Furrion is white. The door and frame can be scuffed and painted the Winnebago beige you are wanting by a Winnebago dealer with a paint facility. view full answer...
To replace your Atwood G6A-8E RV Water Heater I recommend the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - 16" x 18" Door # FR48SR. Since the G6A-8E is 12-5/8" H x 16-1/4" W x 17-5/8"D you'll need a slightly wider door than a 16" x 16" to fully cover the cutout hole. Furrion's tankless water heater is one of the best on the market and out of the brands we carry is the top choice.
To install this unit you'll need to nail in some 2x2's to shorten the mounting space width down to this unit's size... view full answer...

If the tank is leaking on your discontinued Dometic water heater model GC6AA-8SP, I recommend updating your tank. This is because finding a direct replacement of just the tank itself may prove to be way more of a hassle than upgrading the entire unit due to the availability of that part. We unfortunately do not carry the replacement tank for the discontinued GC6AA-8SP.
With that being said, I did reach out to Dometic about a direct replacement of the entire unit. They confirmed that... view full answer...

You can use the Dometic RV Water Heater - Gas and Electric - Automatic Pilot - 120 Volt - 10,000 Btu - 6 Gal Tank # DMC74FR to replace your water heater.
However, I recommend going tankless. I'll use the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU - 16" x 16" Door # FR98SR. They heat water instantly and only when needed. You do not need to waste propane keeping several gallons of water hot overnight when you can have it on demand and save propane.

The Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater part # FR93FR is the correct tankless replacement for your old Atwood unit and you will need to use the Access Door for Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - 18" x 16" part # FR63FR to cover your old opening.

The Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 41,800 Btu - White Item # LSB64FR has a minimum pressure requirement of 8" WC and a maximum pressure of 13" WC.

It sounds like you might need to replace the regulator since you can't run the stove and water heater at the same time.
Depending on your setup if you have a larger single tank you could need a vertical 2 stage regulator like the... view full answer...
The Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater part # FR68SR is what I recommend using to replace a Suburban SW12DE RV Water Heater. The Furrion is tankless which means you'll have an endless supply of hot water as opposed to the 12 gallon capacity of the Suburban. The 18" x 18" door means there will be no gaps in the exterior of the trailer making for a clean install. view full answer...

For your 2004 Itasca Suncruiser, with an Atwood RV Water Heater w/ Heat Exchange # AT94023, which is no longer available, I recommend going with the Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR with the door conversion kit # # DMC24FR in black.
This tank is a bit smaller at 6 gallons, versus # AT94023 10 gallon capacity, but will also produce up to 12 gallons of hot water per hour, which should be plenty.
Additionally, this unit has an aluminum clad tank, that does a great job preventing corrosion,... view full answer...
I recommend upgrading to the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR68SR to replace your Atwood G6A-8E water heater. The tankless option will save you from having energy wasted keeping the water in the tank hot while you are camping. Since the hot water is instantaneous you will also not have to worry about running out of hot water in the middle of a shower. The Furrion will fit your same cutout and includes a 18"x18" door that will be completely cover your existing cutout of 12-5/8"x16-1/4". view full answer...
To replace your Suburban SW12DEL RV Water heater with a tankless water heater I recommend the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater 60,000 BTU # FR68SR. This unit features a heating capacity of 13,000 - 60,000 Btu, well above that of your Suburban. The Vortex system mixes hot and cold water to eliminate fluctuations and reduce the risk of hot water scalding.
It has smaller dimensions at 12-5/8" L x 12-13/16" W x 19-3/16" D so you'll need to make slight alterations to your cutout hole to fill... view full answer...
There is a 12 volt water heater (which the G6A-8E is) that you can replace the G6A-8E with, but there will be modifications needed, particularly the access door, since yours has a large 18" x 14" door. What you can use as a replacement is a tankless option from Furrion:
- Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR98SR
The # FR98SR measures 12-5/8" tall x 12-5/8" wide x 19-1/4" deep so it is similar to the 12-1/2" tall x 16" wide x 18" deep measurements of your Atwood. The door is 16-1/8"... view full answer...
I do have an option for you. But I can tell you that the feature you have with the hose coming from the engine through the water heater is no longer available.
Since you are needing to replace your GCH10A-3E water heater, I recommend going with a tankless option like the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR98SR.

The Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater part # FR93FR with the Access Door for Furrion RV Tankless Water Heaters part # FR73FR is what you'll want to use to replace the Atwood G10-2 Water Heater.

To replace your Atwood G6A-7 water heater, the best option, by far, is a tankless heater. Tankless heaters are better than the older, manual pilot heaters like the Atwood models because they are much easier to use with their wall control, they conserve energy so well by only using it once you turn the water on, and - maybe most importantly - give you immediate hot water, which is always a fantastic thing.
So I highly recommend a tankless heater from Fogatti, which comes in either white... view full answer...
Dometic purchased Atwood a number of years ago and has been slowly phasing out their line of water heaters so there is no longer any GC6AA-10E water heaters available.
