RV Repair: Water heaters, suburban water heater, atwood water heater

Question
Can I replace my Suburban water heater with an Atwood water heater?  I have a 6gal. gas/electric heater now and I want to replace it with an Atwood,if possible.

Answer
Jeff,
    The dimensions of the cut-out for a Suburban water heater are different than an Atwood, but if you have room to enlarge it it should work.  Your cut-out now is probably 12 11/16" X 12 11/16".  For an Atwood the cut-out will need to be 12 1/2" H X 16" W.  Good luck,

Darren
