Heater core install and system flush
The second propane furnace crapped out, lights but shuts down after
2-3 seconds. I believe it is the thermocoupler but there are 2 and they are entirely different than the current style. Now I am down to a single unit because they are old Dou-Therms and they haven't made furnaces for 15+ years so I'm guessing the parts haven't been made for a while. I am installing the Proheat system in my rig and there are currently 2 heater cores, 1 under the rear queen and 1 under the front couch, not counting the dash heater core. I am planning on adding at least 1 additional heater core and fans. I am planning on adding additional fans to the current heater cores, the existing fans are automotive fans and I think they will draw too many amps and drain the batteries quickly. Someone suggested using old computer cooling fans I am guessing because they have a low amp draw. Any suggestions on sources for heater cores? Would a home baseboard heater work? I also Recall someone mentioning using a sump pump to fill the heat core coolant lines after a flush, anyone remember this... Randy? Troy Tikalsky 1986 Newell 40' |
