Exact Size Furnace Replacement Recommendation for Atwood 8531
Updated 11/13/2025 | Published 10/19/2025 >
Question:
I am looking to replace my Atwood 8531-IV-DCLP, I understand that now this would be a Dometic furnace now. Would you be able to find the series that would be about the same size. I am trying not to do a major renovation as the hole for the furnace is under the mounted fridge and I have limited space. Thank you.

Hey Kristoper, we have just what you need with the Dometic Furnace part # DMC54RR which has exact same dimensions as what you had at 16 1/2" W X 7" H X 20" D and also this has same 30k BTU rating so it will work perfectly for you. How old is the RV?
