12v furnace install in a park model. (120v) need help

I'm not sure where to post this. We have a 1986 Elite park model trailer. The furnace quit at the tail end of last winter. It had to be replaced. We got an excellent deal on a brand new RV furnace...

I'm still trying to figure out what a 12VDC furnace is. Is this a furnace connected to PROPANE but has a 12VDC blower? This is how most RV Trailer Furnance's are setup.

The 12VDC is only required to run the blower. If this is what you have then a simple 120VAC to DC Power supply from Radio Shack should operate your 12VDC blower just fine. As said above they only need 6-8AMPS DC current.
