Hello all,

Just in the process of framing in the bathroom and fridge area and need a quick measurement. I need to know the distance between where the fridge compartment juts out to the bathroom wall. From internet pics its look like ~ 8" but pics can be deceiving and I would like to get close.

TIA

Stay safe all.

Shawn,

I have 23' Birchavens and I can not help with your measurement, but perhaps the assembly manual will have exactly what you need? Check Bdub or the GMCMI Web site for the manual. Best of Luck.

Take care,
Tom

Also , it is important to address the top vent as we find that we need to
shift the vent closer to the side wall.
At the same time replace the old Camper style with the newer style vent
assembly.

I've replaced the vent with one of your new style ones. Not sure I'm following you on the vent shifting.

Look and see if the air rising through through the back will reach the top
opening easily.
We have seen considerable restriction and it need that on a hot day.
