Curt Sprenger Re: Engine Compartment Hot Air Exhaust Fan
Makes me wonder what's different in my coach. The closet gets _really_ warm, but the bedroom stays fairly livable while going over the road. I have the 'side island' bed. Is yours a rear-bed model?
The hot rear closet isn't that big a deal to me as we don't open it that often. I'm sure the bedroom picks up a little heat from it, but the AC seems to take pretty good care of that.
Note that I replaced my front and rear ACs about 2 years ago.
So, instead of a heat problem, perhaps you have an AC problem?
I'm not sure how easy it would be to install more insulation between the engine compartment and the closet from the engine side. It's pretty tight and the walls are crowded with wires and grounding strips on the curb side.
The closet could get more insulation, but it would cut the space for the stuff in the closet.

I put some of that cheap insulation you can buy from JC Whitney under 
the matresses (I have twin beds) with the aluminum side down.  
Simple, cheap idea that did seem to help a little bit.

Guys,
I agree, but I'm hoping they will help to keep the bedroom cooler 
while underway. It's a problem in my coach during the the summer 
months. Even with the A/C runnung full blast thr rear room gets 
hot/too warm.
But I do aspire to Gregg's way of thinking, do whatever takes, if 
this doesn't work maybe 4 fans will.
