    Putting a ceiling fan in our 303. Is it possible?

    We love our 303 but sometimes we want some air moving without the AC on. The max fan really doesn't do an adequate job. We'd really like a ceiling fan between the den and kitchen island. Is it even possible? This definitely isn't something I'd tackle, I'd let the dealer do it. I just wondered about possibilities and warranty issues with the frame, roof.

    Generally, wherever the max air fan is, is where the ceiling fan would normally go. Since this is right by the island overhead lights in the 303, it is not possible there. Cutting into the ceiling joists further back by the A/C return sounds expensive, but that might be best left up to your local service department to see what they are willing to do for you.

    It's possible as long as you can tap into a.12 VDC source other than the overhead lights. To locate it between the island and the rear on the camper it would need to be able to clear the slide rooms when they're retracted which may become the limiter.

    Good point. Didn't think of that.

    It has about 1" to spare. I try to make sure fan blades are at an angle to wall before pulling slides in
