How To Remove Hot Water Heater?

[Hedoyle]

First of all, Thank goodness for this site and the great people that are part of it! Now that i've kissed up, Help! We have a 2003 National Dolphin LX with an atwoods hot water heater that i need to remove. Problem is, I can't find a way around to the rear to disconnect everything. From the bathroom sink to the drawers in the bedroom...no luck! Do I partially start removing from the front and go back and forth? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You should be able to access if from the back of a cabinet, closet or under a bed. It may take some reaching a stretching.

My 03 Dolphin LX 6355 has access through the utility compartment where you hook up your sewer/ware/cable etc. My water heater sit just aft of that compartment and if you open the utility compartment door, take everything out that will obstruct and look back to the right and up you should see these fittings. It's tight. Mine has been out twice, and I have watched it. The fitting in the back for the wayer is PVC or plastic---if you break it getting it off you can just heat it and pull it out. At least that is the way mine was.
