1981 Hydro-Flame VS Vented Platinum Cat Heater ?
I am trying to understand the difference between my 1981 "old-time" (doesn't seem that long ago!) Hydro Flame furnace in the used TC we just got and a new Vented Platinum Cat.
They both use propane, they are both radiant heaters for the RV, and they both vent to the outside so they are safe.
I get that the Platinum may be more efficient than the 'flame' type heater, but is there any essential difference otherwise?
Interested in case it comes to having to replace the 1981 furnace with something else if it has "issues". You can get these old-time furnaces for under $100 when people junk their old campers.
