Heating and Cooling
50
The Webasto unit is connected directly to the battery bank, and is not controlled by the battery disconnect switch. For this
reason, please ensure the unit is turned off to avoid draining the batteries when the Roadtrek is not in use, or any time hot
water and cabin heating is not needed.
Although there is no direct flame, the Webasto unit does burn diesel fuel, and you may notice an odor if you leave the rear
doors or windows open.
Unlike direct flame water heaters, which heat water quickly, the Webasto unit takes approximately an hour to warm the water
to the desired temperature, sometimes longer when the water going into the unit is very cold. Anticipate times when you will
need hot water for the sink and shower, and turn the unit on in time to heat the water for your use.
Cooling
The roof-mounted air conditioner in your Roadtrek will provide
cool air while camping, and will also operate for short intervals
while driving with the optional engine generator and the 2,500W
inverter. Do not operate the air conditioner while driving with the
propane generator.
Refer to the air conditioner manual for details of use.
Thermostat
The thermostat controls the air conditioning unit. Set the
thermostat on "cool" and set the desired temperature.
Some models also have a small heat strip in the air conditioning
which will blow warm air, but this produces heat directly from
Thermostat
electricity and is not recommended for heating the cabin for
extended periods of time unless you are attached to shore
power or running the engine. For all other circumstances, use the regular heating system to heat the cabin. If your unit has
the heat strip option, you can operate it by turning the thermostat to "furnace" and setting the desired temperature.
The third setting, "fan", recirculates cabin air using the fan inside the air conditioning unit.
