Does anyone know what the model no. of the furnace we have in our Clippers is? My furnace needs some parts and it would help to know the model. :)
Hi Richard,
I just checked my papers and unfortunately, the heater is the one item I don't have any paperwork for.
I do believe that you have either a Coleman OR a Suburban. I was told at the rally this weekend, that the Suburban is much easier to do repairs on - some repair shops won't even bother trying to repair a Coleman.
Hopefully someone else will be able to provide additional information for you.
Hello Richard & Toedtoes,
When I Get Back Home I Have A PDF Manual On The Clipper Suburban Furnace, It Has Parts & Trouble Shooting.
Off The Top Of My Head, I Think Don't Hold Me To It, SF-30Q 12Vdc & Quiet It Is 30,000 BTU Model, They Are Not Cheap About $600.00 + Shipping
We Bought A Small Portable Space Heater, Cost $29.00 @ Our Local Hardware Store. The Only Draw Back You Have To Have 110Vac, I Think You Maybe Able To Get A 12Vdc One. It Sure Save Your LPG Useage. ;D
I Think You Can Go To American RV Company Web Site & Give Your Measurements.
They Are In So. Calif.

Hope This Helps,

Thank you guys for the information. I have been able to find the model no. and also the two parts I need to restore the furnace. The model no. is: Suburban NT 12-31 or NT 12-16. The parts I needed were a burner tube gasket part no. 70304 or 70305 which I obtained on E-Bay from LTDRV Parts in Michigan and a blower tube crossover pipe part no. 50475 or 50474 which I obtained from Laurelhorst Distributers in Portland. This furnace is obsolete as you might imagine and Suburban will not even send me a parts breakdown as they are not permitted to do so once an appliance has been discontinued. If you find a maintenance manual with pictures of the parts and where they go, I would appreciate getting a copy from you.

There is going to be some work done on the website in the near future - trying to get it organized with a better breakdown of subjects, etc. We will have a section for folks to identify what manuals they have - the hope is that we can all share the information and send pdfs of parts or all as needed to other members on request.
