We have one of these in our M/H. We are currently away with the van and find the heater gets lovely and hot but doesn't seem to have much in the way of power in the fan side. There is no setting for fan speed, just 900w or 1800w in the electric setting with
a dial for thermostat 1 - 5. We've had the van for 2 years but this is the first time we've been away for more than a couple of days in winter. When we put it on gas or gas and electric it has much more umph. Having read the manual it just advises that the
fan speed is automatic and will drop once temp has been achieved and then increase when temp drops.  My query is the fan speed seems to be so low/slow it takes hours to heat the van is this normal?  I would be grateful if anyone has one of these fitted to
their van to give me some feedback. Should we be heating the van up on gas then turning it to electric?  any thoughts welcomed.
