Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my heating element has failed?
Common signs include water heater not heating on electric mode (but works on gas), tripped circuit breaker, or significantly longer heating times. You can test the element with a multimeter for continuity - a reading of 8-10 ohms indicates a good element, while infinite resistance means it's failed.
Can I replace this element myself?
Yes, with basic tools and safety precautions. Turn off all power to the water heater, drain the tank completely, and allow it to cool. The element unscrews from the tank. Always use a new gasket during installation and check for leaks before restoring power. If you're uncomfortable working with electrical components, consult a qualified RV technician.
Will this element work in my Atwood water heater?
This element fits most Dometic Atwood electric water heaters that use a 1400W, 110V heating element. Check your existing element for the part number 92097 or verify your water heater model number against your owner's manual. The element should have the same wattage and voltage rating as your original.
Why did my heating element fail?
Common causes include mineral buildup from hard water, running the heater without water (dry firing), age and normal wear, or power surges. To extend element life, flush your water heater regularly, use an anode rod, never operate the heater empty, and consider a surge protector for your RV's electrical system.
