Thinking of replacing my bedroom furnace in my 1992 AS LY motorhome. The problem I'm finding is that the direct replacement Atwood 8516 furnace is no longer available.
The current replacement seems to have the ducts routed out from different directions than the older version. My furnace used two duct openings on the top right but the newer version doesn't have those openings. The ductwork in the MH is routed through one of the closets with the furnace located below it. The only way to access the furnace outlets for the bedroom ducts is through the top right side facing the unit from the outside.
Really don't want to have to pull the entire closet just to reroute the duct work.
Oh, the kitchen is on the duct work side and the shower is on the opposite side with the closet in between and the furnace underneath. Seems like two ducts exit the top of the furnace and is routed alone that side and then along the back through a carpeted channel in the closet before it goes behind the shower and eventually exits at the other side of the shower in the bedroom. Not so easy to get to all the duct work since the shower is one piece. It's a really tight fit on either side of the furnace. Seems like AS designed the space just for that furnace. Figures.
Any suggestions on what I could do?
