Aware of the maximum exhaust length. I believe for Oasis it is 12' and each bend reduces that length by 2'. Also aware that RVIA is not "code" or law, but a set of guidelines. Still, in order to put that RVIA sticker on your unit, which many states now require for new RVs, surely there has to be some level of adherence to those guidelines.

I don't plan to approach Newmar with a hostile attitude at all. Just point it out to them and ask them to help me identify a resolution.

I am currently thinking that venting to the patio side, under the half-bath is my best bet. There is a window there as well but if I can get the location slightly fore or aft of the half bath window, a Gen-Turi can go there. Of course, that will then block access to that storage bay....this really sucks.
 
If you do have a solution and advice from Newmar pleas post here. Mine is directly under the services bay, and we did not order the kitchen window for our coach, so we have no windows on that side which could cause problem. However, when setting out FW hose or sewer hose, must be aware of their location, so if run oasis the heat does not melt them. It's a bad location but when engineering, sure lots of considerations are made on where stuff should go, believe they wanted the oasis central to coach for distribution of heated fluid to registers as one of them. I know the overflow reservoir is not in a good location for mine. But life is a compromise for sure.
