Question:
I am looking at this is the plug in ready to replace my old water heater?

I don't know that there are any water heater models that would be a "plug in ready" replacement simply due to the fact that all water heaters need to be installed and serviced by a qualified installer, service agency or gas supplier. That being said, the Dometic RV Water Heater # DMC74FR is about as close to that as you're going to get as far as replacing your current Atwood GC10A-3E is concerned. This water heater measures in at at 12-3/4" tall x 12-3/4" wide x 19-7/8" deep which should be close for what you have now. The Double-Panel On/Off Switch # AT91230 will allow you to power the electric and gas components on and off individually. It mounts in your coach for easy operation. This is only a 6 gallon unit. You might also consider a tankless system like the Excel RV Tankless On-Demand Water Heater - Gas - Electric Ignition - Ventless - 38,000 Btu Item # EX93FR. Many people are moving to the tankless systems.
This unit also produces 20 gallons of water per hour, is made in the USA and comes with a 2 year warranty
