Hi,
First time out with new 5th wheel. We ran the heater and did not get any heat to run to the front of cabin, bedroom and bathroom. This is a new cougar 5th wheel. It has ducted heating and two thermostats.
We have a second air conditioner on the bedroom but event though there is a heat option on it no heat would every turn of from that controller. Thinking it was just for the front Air Conditioner. What is the typical way the air goes to the front? Is it a damper system? And how or where might I control the diversion of the air flow to the front?
Main causes of air restrictions:
1) crushed/kinked ducts
2) poorly installed or completely non-installed ducts
3) construction trash blocking the ducts
4) extremely poor duct design
5) some combo of all 4
This is a new unit, under warranty. Take it back to the dealer for correction or, if that's really inconvenient, call the factory and ask if they will authorize warranty repairs by a mobile tech. Upside to a mobile tech is that you can actually watch what they do and learn how to DIY.
