No heating ducts for bedroom in 2500RL
I just purchased a 2018 2500RL, and our first trip was quite cold at night.
we started the heating system, and found out there was NO duct into the bedroom area?
is this normal?
thanks

Looks like the 2500RL has the heater vent by the shower in the bathroom. Do you leave your bathroom door open to the bedroom?

Our 2500rl has a heater vent in the bathroom and one in the bedroom behind the sliding door right next to the entry door. You will need to slide the door close by about 4” to see the vent and have the warm air directly in the bedroom.

Thanks randy. We just took delivery of our 2500RL a week ago.
I guess we still have a couple of corners to look at.
Have you noticed anything wrong, or not working. Since you have the exact same trailer as me.
Merci (french for thanks)

Bedroom Heat Duct
We added a flip-out door stop to the edge of bedroom door in our 2500RL.
When using furnace we flip out this door stop so we don't accidentally block the heat duct to bedroom.
Furnace Limit Switch
We just camped in Iowa with 20 deg over-night low and our furnace quit at 1 am.
We only got it working again after letting furnace cool-down and removing two drawers below kitchen sink.
It ran the rest of the night with the drawers removed.
This did not happen during many days of 35 deg overnight temps.
The problem appears to be over-heating of furnace which has a "limit" switch and a "sail" switch in the thermostat circuit.
The sail switch prevents burner operation if fan fails to run, and the limit switch shuts off burner if furnace overheats.
I reviewed the installation instructions for the furnace and it shows that the 2500RL does NOT meet the requirements for total heat duct area and total cold air return area.
I increased the return area by trimming the wood panel under the oven cabinet.
I did not see any way to increase duct area other than adding another 4" diameter duct from furnace to kitchen area...don't want to do this as it would reduce flow to bedroom.Steve and Camy
