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?

Hey Kristoper, how did the fit go with the Dometic furnace under your fridge? Your update could make it easier for others working with limited space like that.
