Hello, we are thinking of going for an 'autumn' break but are unsure how to use the heater - it is a S3002.  Do we have to use it on both gas and electric, when I tried it just on electric it did not get warm - just the fan.  Also, will this be sufficient to keep the van warm.

Thanks

Bill we have this system on our previous van and I used to find the heating on electric warmed the van up better without the fan going.This did result in a colder washroom so used to leave the door slightly open.If you do use the fan make sure at least one butterfly vent is open on the ducting.

I turn it 2000 , let it run till hot air is coming out ot the heater,  about 5 mins , then put the fan to 4-5,  it will loose some heat at first warming the pipes. make sure the thermostat is turned up
