Thermostat
A single wall-mounted thermostat is installed to control both the
furnace and the air conditioner. (If a second air conditioner is
installed, it will have its own thermostat.) Choose the mode
(heating or cooling) with the slider switch, and then set the
preferred temperature. The thermostat will start and stop the
furnace/air conditioner as needed to maintain the setting.
Roof Exhaust Fan
The ceiling fan used in your coach is designed to ventilate the
interior when cooking or if the use of your air conditioner is not
desired. If used properly the roof fan can cool the interior by as
much as 15 degrees within a short period of time. When used in
the exhaust mode, the fan pulls hot air from high inside the coach
and will pull fresh air from an open window. This fan is usually
controlled by a wall-mounted thermostat (some models have a
thermostat built right on the fan), which must be turned on and
adjusted to your desired temperature before use. The wall-
mounted thermostat is not the same that is used for the furnace or
air conditioners. Please review the supplied fan owner’s manual for
additional operating instructions.
Fireplace (if so equipped)
An optional electric fireplace can be ordered and factory-installed in
certain travel trailers. The fireplace provides a warm orange glow
like a traditional fireplace, and can provide warm forced-air heat
that can take the chill off of cool mornings, and extend a
comfortable environment on cool evenings.
The fireplace has a control panel on the upper right with simple
pushbuttons to control the ‘flame’ and warm air output. It is strongly
recommended that the fireplace be turned off when you leave the
travel trailer.
