Installation Notes If Replacing a Dometic DTU16 – 230V
The Webasto FCF Platinum 16000 is a good replacement option for the Dometic DTU16, but there are some differences that should be noted when installing the Webasto:
The Webasto uses 4 and 5 inch ducting whereas the Dometic uses 5 and 6 inch. An easy replacement as the flex ducting can be cinched down in size easily.
Condenser sizes are different. A boat having Dometic on it would be using 5/8” water lines. When replacing with a Webasto FCF unit, a provided 5/8” to 3/4” adapter (included with the unit) is required with a short length of 3/4” water hose to connect to the larger, superior Webasto condenser. Also an easy task, but needs mentioning.
The controller is not interchangeable meaning the cable and controller must be replaced. Both the cable and controller are included with every FCF platinum unit.
There are very slight differences in the dimensions to take into account when considering installation location, but this is rarely a problem.
