The Motoraid unit is Winnebago specific. You can source one from them. In my opinion, it's a worthwhile feature, providing you with a tank of hot water for free on arrival at your campsite. Why are you looking for a complete water heater?
Motoraid is NOT Winnebago specific. Winne for years(about 1980 and on) used them as standard equipment on Class A models. BUT not Winne specific. Other OEM's optioned the Motoraid feature over the years. Unless times have changed, Atwood used to have BOTH Motoraid and standard replacement tanks. BUT, if the W/H was over 10 years old, it was best to buy a complete new W/H. The Motoraid is very simple. It is just an Aluminum hollow tube welded to the outside of the back of the Inner tank. You then connect the Engine water hoses to it. Most newer Motorhomes the water flows all the time. After doing an Internet search, it appears that Replacement tanks with Motoraid are no longer made. Winnebago has this as a P/N for a replacement tank. 145541-02-700 Tank-w/Insulation-6 Ga. But I doubt Winne has any. You need to call Winne parts in Iowa. I also could not find any NEW Atwoods with Motoraid for sale. So, you CAN use the standard replacement inner tank . You will just have to connect the 2 Heater hoses together with a nipple and clamps.
