Does size really matter?

Thanks Everyone for your responses. I will research the PlatCat and the Wave3 and make a decision from there.

Wave 3 will be fine unless you camp in areas below 20 degrees F. We have the 3 in our 10 foot Avion, and is our only source of heat. When we camped in the Mainland of Alaska in November, we were glad to find a Campground still open, even though they only offered electricity. This allowed us to supplement the heat with an electric heater, that took our camper from -9 F to about 60 F in less than an hour (wave 3 and electric 1500 watt heater together) and kept us at about 60 all night! and it dipped to -14 F....
Living in Alaska, I almost wish I went with a Wave 6, but when we put 4 or 5 of us in the camper, body heat helps heat up the rest of the way.

Hopefully this helps out! Also if you camp in Cold Weather, pick up some of the aluminum faced bubble-wrap insulation, and line cupboards, place under mattresses, and I use Metal "Duct Tape" to put it over the windows which was the only way for us to hold any heat at all in our sub-zero Thanksgiving.

Good Luck!

I installed the Wave 3 in my AF 1140. We like it very much. When we have shore power we use our baseboard heat. When we dry camp we use the Wave 3. Both are used much more than the factory furnace. The nice thing about the Wave 3 is that its very easy on propane and it takes no battery power to run it. I grabbed my propane feed from the rear of the frig.

I use a Wave 6 in my 24' MH and it's more than adequate. I agree that the Wave 3 would probably work for you. They do require a couple of windows vented and you have to have adequate space around them. Mine is portable with a quick-disconnect valve to the propane line. It uses no battery, very little propane and is quiet. I love it!

I had a wave 3 in my 1140 arctic fox. It worked well, but they are radiant heaters and will take a long time to heat the camper. They produce a lot of moisture/humidity. That said, I loved mine and would do it again. They save a lot of propane and electricity.

If you get the big Wave it will be too big and you'll be shutting off more. It will also use more LP. The 3 is way large enough for any TC.

The other option to a Wave is a PlatCat. Do search, there's a lot of info on both.
