Newbie Issues...Engine Bay Cool Down Methods

[Leroy Eckert]

I have an older coach but it has a squirrel cage fan that is supposed to exhaust
the heat. If it is running for a while after shutdown it helps. I just always go
open the hatch for a bit and get it over with. Mine is well insulated and really
isn't that big of a problem. I doesn't matter in Winter.

Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Newbie Issues...Engine Bay Cool Down Methods


We just took our 43' LXi out for our first shake down cruise to Ft.
Desoto Park in St. Pete, Florida. Aside from the Ranger sending to a
spot we had no prayer of getting into, we had an issue of cooling down
the bedroom of the coach. Granted, it was 94 degrees with 100%
humidity, but the bedroom seemed to take hours and hours to cool down
with all the heat of the engine bay trapped directly below the bed.

What is the best way to vent the engine bay of all that heat? What
did the dealer not tell me? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
