Forum: Heating Systems
- Replies (4)

I'm about to charge mindlessly into the heating and defroster system in the front of my 93 coach and I have a couple question.

My heater barely keeps up when outdoor temps are in the high 40's. Assuming other similar coaches have similar heater systems, has anyone traveled in colder temps and survived? I'm trying to assess if the system is operating correctly but is inadequately sized or if it is just not functioning properly.

Question 2; where is the modulating valve that controls the flow rate of coolant to the heater core? It is operated by wire from the lever on the dash panel.

Any insight is gratefully accepted.

Not sure how many read this online mag.

http://rv-pro.com/magazine/digital-version-library There is a APP also...

However, I find some of the articles interesting as I grew up in the industry.

Of particular interest is in the May issue under Transport Woe's.

In April there was a 25-30K Unit backup on new deliveries to the dealers
and unable to find drivers..etc.

I think I've just found my retirement job for next season.... It's a option anyway..

I also worry that with that kind of production and the glut of inventory. The industry may see another downfall which would effect the prices industry wide.. especially the previously owned market..

Does anyone know how to contact an RV lot owner for rental at Tiger Run? I made reservations online yesterday (with the main resort people) for a week in July and this evening they called to tell me the online booking was "overbooked" so they cancelled my reservations! They would not give me any assistance in finding owners that rent their lots so thought I'd try here! Thanks for any help! Jim

For any one who is going to attend the rally, I am going to Infinite Innovations in early June. I will be picking up some of the strip light inverters. These are used in the blue backlighting for some of the control panels used in late 90s and into early 2000 coaches. If you would like me to add to my order, please post your order. I will bring them to the rally in late June. Below is the item:

See the attached picture. I am broken down in Florida City. Road service is working on it. He left to get a new hose made up and said he would put the wheel back on the coach so it would still be here when he got back.

I have no idea how that hose could have come out of the brake canister. The threads on the hose are definitely damaged. I hope this never happens to anyone else. The clock is ticking at $125/hr plus parts. Road service will cover him showing up, but I think that is about it. It took over four hours for him to arrive and he will be gone another 3 or so by the time he gets the hose made. You would think I was out in the barren west! Oh well, no one hurt - just a bump in the road and a late night I hope.

Russ
