Hi all,

Can anyone solve a dispute. Can the blown air heating in a van run off gas.

cheers Steve

Steve,

Depending what system you have, if it is a Truma 3002 or similar, then it is primarily designed to be run from the gas, with the electric as a back up heating system.

You will obviously need 12 volts to run the fan for the blown air part.

Agree with Damian, originally both Carver and Truma used a 12v fan on the back of the gas fire for blown heating. Carver were then the first building 240v heating elements into the fan unit,(Fanmaster mk1),this could use either but not both. Later, (1998), they used seperate elements with a fan so gas, electic or both could be used,(Fanmaster mk2).

The current Truma version,(gas fire + ultra-heat),is more or Less the same as the mk2 Fanmaster.
