Awning heating

Basically  I let the sun heat the awning. If it's not enough to sit in there we do, if not then we sit in the van. it is better economy to heat a caravan if required than an awning. As for bringing your caravan up to date I've no idea as I'm rubbish at diy. Different covers on chairs maybe.

It's a big 'No' from me too. I don't plug into my supply at home and try and warm the planet, so why do it on a site?

Just put your big coat on! 😀

Gee, Mickey, hope you’ve got your tin hat handy.

We don’t have an awning but you can heat it in any way you want. Halogen heaters seem popular. You’re limited by the amount of power available -10a, 16a or whatever - but it’s yours to use however you see fit although awning heating is considered wasteful by some. 

Why heat the the planet when their is far more comfort in a caravan, just remember when heating areas outside the caravan as some do ,do not come on here moaning that the site bollard keeps tripping

Hello MH👍🏻😊, you’ve woken up the finger Waggers with your thread I’m afraid☹️. Your comfort is your affair, you don’t live your life to others demands as much as some posters will try to control your choices. Your life-live it😊

Everybody has the right to use the site electricity to suit their needs.   I personally have never used an awning heater,  but others may need to use one.   The CMC have no restrictions on awning heating so just go ahead and use your heater.

If it's that cold then move indoors or, as said, put your big coat on. 

Regarding updating your van, I've seen lots of pictures of ideas such as painting the interior wood; changing flooring, adding throws and brightly coloured cushions and, dare I say, adding bunting.

I don’t heat mine just wondered as I know others do 

Ah, I think I’ve sussed it now 

I wonder lots of things Mickey 

I often wonder at some of the silly things folks ask such as how to update a caravan, but then some folks can't boil an egg, flush the loo, etc....

I have lots of ideas and experience on how to do up an old caravan, but as it is my brain cells in use, it will cost...........
