Re: [A/S] Newbie Question (first of many!!)
Joanne,
I am assuming that you mean the original furnace has been removed?
Replacement is certainly practical and doable. I've not heard of one
shipped without a furnace from the factory, but older ones (pre 60s)
were pretty much custom built, apparently, so I guess anything is
possible. If the trailer is small enough there should be no problem
installing a furnace, if it is a larger, multi-room unit, there will be
ducting to install, PITA but doable. I'd contact the nearest A/S dealer
for an estimate, and deduct that figure from the reasonable value. To
get an idea of value go to:
http://www.airstream.net
and check out the classified section for the era you are looking at and
adjust fire from there.
What year, size, model are you looking at?
Matt
