Beach Cabin Vent…always hot!

[Steve Watton]

Hi all, after some advice/ suggestions.

We have a 2018 Beach that was new to us last year. It has a diesel night heater and the non air con rear cabin vent system.

The rear cabin vent system only seems to push out hot air that is significantly over ambient even with the temp dial turned all the way to the blue end. Not sure if this is normal/ expected. We’re having to keep it off to avoid cooking the kids!

I’ve only just noticed this but it’s possible it’s been that way since we have had the van as the kids have complained of being too warm occasionally .

Any experience of this and a fix would be welcomed!

The rear system has no cooling function, it does ambient and warm, on hot days leave it off and rely on front air con or open a window

Hi thanks, yes came to the same conclusion but the output was significantly over ambient on the coolest setting. Like it was being heated.
