    397TH / Bedroom Temps 5-10 degrees warmer than other zones

    Struggling to understand why the bedroom temps are running so high. Our 397 has three a/c units with a heat pump in the center/main unit. No matter what we choose for a target temperature in the bedroom it climbs 5 - 10 degrees above the main living area. We turn off the bedroom unit and there is no change. This is happening while running with Heat Pump preferred setting on the central unit. Both day and night show the same trend. Current temps at night are between 40-45 degrees so system using propane when below 45 degrees. Is there a best way to set up the three units to keep the bedroom at a normal temp? I have tried different settings but now more confused. Was thinking about turning off all three units and just running the fireplace/heater just to see what happens. Anybody else having this issue? Any and all feedback welcome...

    Only the center unit will heat the coach. Leave the other two off.

    It's the highest point in the coach. Heat rises.

    Do you have the bedroom doors open or closed?

    Keep the doors closed and it keeps the heat from flowing up the steps and into the bedroom.
