How to Fix a 3" Gap Surrounding New Water Heater After Install
Updated 05/12/2023 | Published 05/10/2023
Question:
how would this replacement fit? The recommended heater is 13T x 13W and the original heater is 13T x 16W, thats a 3inch difference side to side. There would be a gap. Is there a better fit you could recommend?

If you can believe it the Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot # LSB64FR is actually the largest water heater we offer.
The overall dimensions of the unit are 14-3/8" long x 15" wide x 15" tall which is closer to what you're needing but we aren't going to have anything that matches directly. What you could do is get some lumber from your local home improvement store and use it to fill the gap and give the new water heater something to mount to.
