Suburban furnace removal - jrm1486 - 11-01-2007 02:19 Hi All, Time to ask for your help again, there once was a post describing how to remove the Suburban furnaces. Does anyone know where I can find it in the message board? I have a unit I need to pull out and try to troubleshoot it, any help with troubleshooting the unit would also be greatly appreciated. thanks John 1984 FC 35' Suburban furnace removal - dru penland - 11-01-2007 02:59 John, I just removed two of my three due to inoperation (new word). My two problems were dirt dauber and paper wasp nests, as well as dirty burners (rust scale). Both of these were curb side. The front one I had to remove the couch by removing the five mounting screws (forward ones next to the floor behind co-pilot seat, rear ones (3) just under the removable cushion, angle iron bracket). From there, I flipped the couch over to the other side, took the front cover off the heater (flip clips), took the two screws out fastening the unit to the floor, unclasped the power wire, unscrewed the gas line (TURN OFF PROPANE SUPPLY), removed outside vent and out it came! The rear heater, situated between the dining area and one of my side beds was just a matter of snaking it through the maze of cabinetry. Had to remove a few partitions, but much easier than the front. My driver side furnace is another story. I had wasp nests in the vents, as well. I raked them out and did my best to clean the burner through the inspection hole. It works, but not quite as blue (flame) as the two removed. Getting this one out of the coach? I'd like to find the post you are talking about... Taking them apart is the second chapter. A little mechanical inclination does not hurt. I bought her last year and went one winter with a space heater due to the amount of work my poor coach needed. It's nice to have these working! Keep us posted, as I would like to hear your story. And good luck to you! Dru jrm1486 wrote: Hi All, Time to ask for your help again, there once was a post describing how to remove the Suburban furnaces.

Go to RV Service Manuals and eventually find a link like this: http://bryantrv.com/docs2/docs/ntseries.pdf Hope it helps.
