Dometic Atwood Main Burner Assembly - Fits GE-9 EXT 6-Gallon Water Heaters

This genuine OEM main burner assembly is the critical LP gas combustion component for Dometic Atwood GE-9 series 6-gallon water heaters.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my burner needs replacement?

Common signs include the water heater clicking but not igniting, a yellow or irregular flame instead of a steady blue flame, sooting around the burner area, or the LP mode not heating water while electric mode works fine. If you've ruled out gas supply and igniter issues, the burner assembly is likely the problem.

Will this work on 10-gallon Atwood water heaters?

No, this burner is specifically designed for 6-gallon GE-9 series models. The 10-gallon models (like the GC10 series) require a different burner assembly with higher BTU output. Always verify your water heater model number before ordering.

Is this difficult to install myself?

Most RV owners with basic mechanical skills can replace the burner assembly. You'll need to access the exterior compartment, disconnect the gas line, remove the old burner, and install the new one. Always turn off the LP gas supply and allow the unit to cool completely before starting. If you're not comfortable working with LP gas components, consult a certified RV technician.

Does this come with mounting hardware or gaskets?

This is the burner assembly only. Depending on your water heater's condition, you may need to reuse existing mounting hardware or order additional gaskets separately. Inspect all components during installation and replace any worn seals to ensure proper operation.
