Furnace / Heating distribution

[jdmert]

2020 2970RL and we used the furnace last weekend in the mountains. Wisely burned it in for four hours the week before. Our rig blows hot air evenly thru all 4 vents. We had to keep the thermostat at 62 or it will run you out of the trailer. We were very comfortable all weekend with no issues. Make sure you report the issue to GD to get it on the warranty record.

I sent a note to GD about it, but I have little hope of any help there. my rig gets so hot in the BR and bath you cannot be in there for any lenght of time. Certainly not sleep in there. The LR & Kitchen get very little air and of course that is where the tstat is so the system runs forever trying to get up to temp.

I'm looking at your signature trying to guess who has to sleep in the bathroom. . .

Can you give me a tip on the most effective way to make the report to Grand Design? Thank you

I just put in my first claim thru their website this weekend...I'll post the results. Just have 2 minor items in 4 months of use.

TY. can you give a brief explanation of the difference between putting in a warranty claim via the GD website and just notifying the mfg of a problem for the purpose of making it a matter of record because at the moment i cannot get my rv to a facility for warranty work?

I had very little heat out of the vents on my 2019 21BHE. Took the panel off behind the furnace that is under the fridge. Found this, the way it came from the factory.

How much propane have you been using in such chilly weather.

[29roadster]

The furnace is a 25,000 BTU per hour unit. A pound of propane is good for 20,000 BTU so the furnace will use 1.25 pounds of propane per hour when it is running. We were out last weekend when the temps were in the upper 40's and we ranit some to take the chill off. Probably ran about 10 minutes every hour.
