I have an '03 Grandby with a Model DD-17DSI Suburban heater. My heater has the sail switch and a broken fan blade. It still operates but is loud and unbalanced with the broken blade. I broke the fan with a hanger wire trying to pull and overcome the sail switch.
My questions:
Should I attempt to replace only the fan or buy an entirely new and maybe superior heater? I don't mind spending the dough trying to bring my Grandby up to date. I probably don't need a thermostat and can simply turn a heater off or on.
I'm considering replacing the Suburban with a Camco Olympian Wave 3 Heater. Can I mount the Wave 3 in the same opening where the Suburban is currently located? The dimensions look similar but I might need to mount the Wave 3 on its end to fit the existing opening in the cabinet face. Will the Wave 3 function in this position?
Thanks for any and all opinions.
