- In Episode 166 of Luv Subbin, we remove our 20 year old oven and vent and install a new stainless steel Furrion range and matching vent. What we thought would be a easy one day installation in our Airstream RV turned into a 3 day marathon!

Great video …thank you !
Thanks for watching! We're glad you enjoyed it.
well done, teamwork!
Thanks for watching! Cindy is great to do projects with as she asks very intelligent questions and gets me to think outside my engineering box.
We love your videos! Y'all provide so much great info on travels, maintenance and installs! Just recently we installed our own upgrade to a Furion range in our 23' Airstream and also changed our warped freezer door. Both of your videos on those were very helpful for us! It took some time to decide on the 12 volt electrical route we would take for the range. Sometimes it's a hit or miss situation; but we finally succeeded and love our new Furrion range. Thanks for the video assistance!
Thanks so much for watching and we're glad our videos were helpful. We love the look of our new Furrion stove and oven. We're still getting used to the burners as they provide more heat than our old stove. We're testing a diffuser and will provide a Luv Subbin short film in the near future.
Step bit for large holes in thin material.
Thanks for watching! That's a great recommendation. I probably should have done that and made the hole bigger. Next time...
@@LuvSubbin, enjoying your channel! We have the same range/oven as your new one in our 25’ International.
Rich - Replacing my stove/oven has made it to the short to-do list. Great timing for me to see this episode of yours. Could you please throw me the model info. Thanks,Mark
Hi Mark - Thanks for watching! The model we installed was a Furrion F1S21L02A-SS. Like we said, we had to install a 2" spacer at the bottom. There's also a small trim piece on the top we'll have to put on as the depth was not exact.
Great upgrade for your beautiful Airstream! I’m sure Cindy will be so happy.
Thanks for watching! Yes, with all the cooking she does this is a very nice upgrade. We are looking forward to using it soon.
Wow! Now that was an adventure! Can't wait to see what comes out of that kitchen now!
Thanks Denise! We're going to do a full blown test before we head out to make sure everything works. Yummy!
You two are easily the best and easiest to watch, enjoy and follow influencers on the internet! I know you did the awards show recently but your videos clearly deserve some kind of award too! Thanks for another great airstream video!
Thanks so much for watching and the super nice comment on our channel. It truly made our day.
We follow you two religiously on RUclips and enjoy your adventures and find your advice priceless. One question ... we have a 2008 25FB and bought a new range with the lighted knobs. All is well except for figuring out how to run DC power to the range top. Where did you find the DC wire for the lights? Many thanks!
Thank you so much for watching our videos religiously! First, let me say that I am not a licensed electrician or a certified RV Technician. What I did was tap into the 12V for the overhead oven vent. I used a 3 port Wago Lever Nut. The 12V supply was already there and went into one port. The other port was used for the oven vent and the third port we fed down into the oven for the light. The hardest part was snaking the wire from the overhead down into the oven. It might have seemed easy in the video but probably took 3 hours in real life (that would have made for a very boring video). I used marine grade sheathed wiring and installed rubber grommets where the wires went through the aluminum (yes, I had to cut a hole for the oven wiring). The Wago lever nuts can be found on Amazon - I love them. I hope that helps.
@@LuvSubbin Thank you for your quick reply and assistance. We use Wago connectors in our home and found them to be a secure and safe way to connect wires. I'll check out the marine grade sheathing wire and purchase some. You inspired us to go on a reconnaissance mission for wiring. We believe we can tap into the 12V line from a water filter that AS installed under the sink (which we tossed out when it became unpredictable). We found the wiring loom under the kitchen drawer in the island, along with a roll of masking tape left in there from the Mothership. (It is similar to an archeology dig. lol) Then we hope we can use fish tape to bring the wire around the cabinetry to the range top. Fingers crossed! Thanks again for your help. BTW We use your "lists" slightly modified for the layout of our 25FB and our departure/arrival routines are going much smoother. "Drive defensively and slowly" So true!
Congratulations on your beautiful new stove and fan. Well done installing it.
Thanks for watching! We'll do a future "Cooking With Cindy" episode where she makes some bread and a first test meal.
4 times to HD! I am proud of y’all…I would have gone twice that many!
The most irritating trip was to buy the four #8x15 3/4" screws to secure it. You pay almost $600 for a stove and they don't include the mounting screws?
@@LuvSubbin That is a great price on the stove. I was afraid to ask the cost. No screws? That is horrible!
Can you provide a little more information on the dimensions of the old stove and the new one? I'm attempting to replace an Amana stove in my 2004 Airstream with this Furrion. Did most of the measurements line up? It doesn't appear that you had to cut the cabinet/counter. Did you have to shim the sides? How did you shim the bottom?
Hi Dennis and thanks for watching. We did not have to cut into the cabinet but it was not a perfect fit. From a height perspective, the new stove was 2" shorter. It rests on the cabinet on stainless steel supports but we did not want it to "float" on the bottom. We glued a 2" block under it and had our local machine shop fabricate a stainless steel sheet to cover the gap. It looks great. The depth was also 1" shorter and we covered the rear gap with a similar SS plate. We used the machine shop because I wanted the edges perfectly straight and didn't have the equipment.
Well done! I don't know if hubby and I would attempt a project that size.
Thanks for watching! Funny how something as seemingly easy as snaking a wire turned into such misery. Oh well. We can't wait to start using it.
Did your payload capacity Increase or decrease with the upgrade? And of coarse always love your videos. Especially when there is a project to be done.
Thanks for watching! LOL, you have to love payload questions....But because you asked, the new stove is about 15 lbs. heavier. However, it is mounted behind the axles. That would reduce tongue weight so my effective payload capacity actually has increased! I'm still about 600 lbs. under my F-150's specified 2,095 lbs...
@@LuvSubbin I was hoping you got a chuckle from the question. But I sure thought the new oven weighed less with thinner gauge material they use today to save a few pennies. Oh but it has the glass top? Love the payload stories on Airstream addicts too.
Do you guys have the oven wired from the battery, the converter, or some kind of fuse box?? We have a 65 caravel we're trying to install the same oven, and a fridge on.
Thanks for watching! The only electricity that the oven requires is for the oven light and it is wired into our 12V system. It is on the same circuit as the overhead exhaust vent.
Fun video👍
Thanks for watching! The video might be fun but living the experience certainly was more "challenging"...
Nice Job! When making wire connections one use wire connectors!!
Thanks for watching! Love my Wagos!
I replaced the original range in our Airstream with the very same Furrion. I did not realize that ring on the control knob is red when burner is lit if you have the power switch on.
Thanks for watching as always! It will be interesting to see how often we turn on the blue disco lights when we're out camping. For us, the big upgrade is the oven window and light.
Great video. I see the snow is gone, or is that just a RUclips mirage? Great line about the F-14 Tomcat going full throttle for the take off! Congratulations on finishing the project.
Thanks Mike. The snow has returned since the video was shot... However, it's meteorological spring so hopefully we have escaped any more heavy snows...
Not as helpful when you stand in front of the camera view most of the time. But thanks for putting something up
hello Furrion model number please
Thanks for watching! It is a Furrion F1S21L02A-SS.
