[A/S] Bowen water heater bites the dust





What looks to be the original 1978 Bowen water heater has sprung a 
small leak in the tank.  I knew it was only a matter of time before I'd 
have to replace it.

It looks like the Atwood 6 gallon water heaters are a perfect 
replacement and all I need to do is salvage the stainless door off the 
old Bowen unit.

I'm sure that someone here has done this before and I was wondering if 
the Atwood was a perfect fit or there were some modifications to the 
frame opening required.  I'll probably post some photos of the job for 
anyone who cares to see how it went.
