Basement heat

I have a 2007 Fleetwood Bounder 38N DP.

Does anyone know if it has a duct going to the basement for heat?
I always forget to check it out when I'm in or around the coach. AND, it sits on my driveway.:h

Cold Weather Usage
The holding tank(s) area is heated through ducts
from the furnace. To prevent holding tank
freeze-up, the furnace thermostat should be set
to maintain a minimum of 33 degrees
Fahrenheit in the holding tank(s) area. Be aware
that exposed drains may freeze quickly.




Thanks Doug.:)
I figgered it'd be in the manual, if I'd just not been too lazy, or forgetful enough to look.

My 2015 Winnebago only had a couple holes in the floor under the head of the bed with two grilles in the bed base. I ended up adding a 3" computer fan to one of the holes to make sure enough warm air found it's way down there after having some minor freezing issues in the utility bay at 20 degrees. I just wired it to the coach's 12 volts. It uses such a tiny amount of power the I have not experienced any battery drain issues (it gets powered down when I turn off the coach batteries). I really thought there would have been a duct, but not my Winnebago.
