Hot air out the side
Hi I was just wondering if the hot exhaust from the furnace was just wasted heat or is it just stale exhaust? It sure seems to be a lot of heat coming out of there!

I don't think it's wasted at all. On a cool morning, I love to sit outside with my coffee and enjoy the warm air that the vent puts out. Kind of like a clean campfire.
IF you call breathing CO gas "clean". There are several deaths per year from camping too near neighbors furnace exhause and contaminating the air inside a neighbors RV. Happens most often at events like NASCAR events or DRAGS where RVs are parked very close together. Please don't think of it as "clean" anything.
Can you find even one news story that references this? I've enjoyed the heat for years and never had an adverse effect. I've never heard of a death caused by someone else's heater being vented to the exterior of the RV. If so, the lawsuits would be outta this world.
