Question:
Hello, I have an Atwood model G6A-7P in my camper that needs replacing. What model water heater would you recommend to replace it with? Thanks, Ed

Hey Ed, the best option we have would be the Dometic RV Water Heater part # DMC39RR which is a 6 gallon water heater like what you have now. This has an automatic pilot light instead of the manual light your current model has so that would be a solid upgrade.

Hi: I have the same issue. Since my prior HWH had a manual pilot, I do not have a switch to turn on the electric ignition. Which switch is compatible with Dometic DMC39RR? Thanks Doug
