DALEDEVON@GMAIL.COM Report post Posted May 23, 2013 I did not get my tank drained, so I need to replace it. Can I buy a new one from Amazon, how do I know if it will fit. The one I have is LP. Any advice is appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfe10 Report post Posted May 23, 2013 Dale, Welcome to the FMCA Forum. First, please let us know what brand you have-- Atwood or Suburban? How old is it-- that will help determine if it is worth replacing just the tank or more reasonable to replace the whole heater. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DALEDEVON@GMAIL.COM Report post Posted May 23, 2013 It is an Atwood. Model g6a-6e. The Motor home is a 1990. It did work real well last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfe10 Report post Posted May 23, 2013 Your call, but with a 23 year old water heater, not sure it is worth buying just a tank. As with most things buying one piece by piece is a lot more expensive than buying a new complete unit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DALEDEVON@GMAIL.COM Report post Posted May 23, 2013 I kind of figured on buying the whole thing, I was really trying to find the best, cheapest route to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kaypsmith Report post Posted May 24, 2013 I've had very good luck on e-bay, buying many RV items. Simple to type in RV water heater, and bam nearly always something shows up, some buy it now, some you can actually bid on. I built my coach, including buying the bus and nearly all of the parts this way, and saved a good deal of money that way. Good luck, Kay Smith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
