Video Transcript for Review of Dometic RV Furnace - Black Access Door - DMC76RR

Hello, neighbors and friends. Steven here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at our Dometic RV furnace running on LP gas with an automatic pilot light that runs on 12 volts of DC current. The whole unit's rated at 20,000 BTUs. And as you can see, this particular model comes with the black access panel door. Now, we'll remove that here so we can show you some quick dimensions here.

(metal clanking) So, overall you got 12 inches wide on the front by 20 inches deep or long, however you wanna word it. And this guy is 7 inches tall overall. Now, keep in mind with those dimensions to make sure it's gonna fit your particular needs. Now, going back up close to the door. So, it does come as a two piece.

You get the plastic trim piece that will go on first, follow up by that metal black finished door, and then final with that metallic exterior piece there that has the words "hot" molded into the metal and everything. So, I wanna keep that door off so you can see the access panel and everything inside. But more importantly, a furnace is gonna quickly and efficiently heat the interior of your RV or camper, and it does replace, upgrade, or just simply add a furnace if you need one. And you'll notice as I'm spinning all these access ports, the included duct adapters would go into there. Now this is a compact design so you can mount it horizontally like we have it today.

Or vertically. It's totally up to you. It's very flexible as far as mounting. Now, it is run on propane. You got your wiring up here, two blue for thermostat, a positive and negative for 12 volt.

And under this black rubber cap is where the threaded part is to hook up the LP gas connection. This unit features a automatic DSI gas pilot light, so it's gonna reduce the risk of gas leaks and increase fuel efficiency at the same time. And it's gonna automatically relight until the heater is switched off. Now again, folks, since it's gas powered, you can use it for boondocking, it's gonna be great. You don't have to worry about being hooked up to shore power or anything like that. The blower motor and everything is a low air turbulence, so it's gonna provide quiet operation. And on the front here, there's a little LED light down in here on the control module board. That can flash if you have any faults. It would flash D, diagnostic codes rather. And then, per the instructions on the troubleshooting, you can look up what those flashing sequences mean and then troubleshoot it that way. And that being said, as far as installation, you would need a thermostat sold separately. That's a mechanical thermostat. It's not digital or WiFi or anything. It's just a basic thermostat. And I'll put that number on the screen for you. You would also need some butyl tape or RTV sealant. That's sold separately as well. And per the instructions, you could possibly need some number 6 or number 8 screws. Like a pan style head AB style self-tapping of that nature. Again, just depends on your particular installation needs. Now over here on the side I've got the two mounting brackets and hardware that comes with the mounting brackets, and that all would be accessed up here on the mounting tabs up front. So once again, folks, rated at 20,000 BTUs. It's ETL certified. This is a great addition or replacement. Dometic RV furnace black access door rated at 20,000 BTUs. I'm Steven. Thanks so much for your time. Thanks for watching and have a great day.
