GENERAL ABOUT THE HEATING SYSTEM
HEATING SYSTEM
Schematic of the living area’s heating system.
Coachman Travel Master has water-borne heating. Heat is
distributed in the living area via:
• The heating system’s convectors, which heat air along
the walls. They give a comfortable indoor temperature
and counteract draughts at windows.
• Floor heating, which ensures a pleasant temperature
for the floor.
The figures show the heating system components in the
living area and how the circulation systems are connected
to each other.
For heat to circulate in the living area’s heating circuit, the
living area’s circulation pump (MKV) has to start.
When the temperature in the motorhome is below the
value set via the control panel, the circulation pump (MKV)
starts. Heat circulates in the convectors. Floor temperature
follows the temperature in the convectors.
Descriptions – Heating system
To counteract heat loss and thus maintain a comfortable
temperature in the motorhome even during severe cold,
the vehicle’s walls, floor and roof are insulated.
It is not possible to insulate the motorhome’s front as
effectively as the rest of the body.
Windscreen, side windows and engine bay can all lose
heat rapidly. This is also true of safety features in the
driver’s environment.
Implementing the following suggestions reduces heat loss
at the motorhome’s front.
• Internally, use blackout curtains at the windscreen/win -
dows at the motorhome’s front.
• Externally, use insulating winter covers on the winds -
creen/windows at the motorhome’s front.
• To insulate walls and floor from the engine bay, fit a
textile cover on the dashboard.
