Bunkhouse HOT!!

Hello All...I have a 2021 Bullet 330BHS. While camping durning last fall and running the heater, the rear bunk house is HOT! The heater is located in the rear right under the bunks. Anyone have suggestions to insulate or redirect the heat so the bunk house isn't 90 while the rest of the camper is 70?

A lot of folks (us included) only use the heater on mornings where the temps outside are near freezing to take the chill off and use ceramic electric heaters to keep the cabin warm. You could also block off the heater register in the bunkhouse.

If you can access the space where the furnace is, I would first check to make sure all the ducts are connected. You could block the register in the bunk area, but it may cause the over limit switch to shut off the furnace. Another option would be lining the space with a heat barrier like this:

Do you have floor registers?

I had to change my stock, not-adjustable floor registers to some that had a wheel to adjust the vanes, from open to closed, so all the hot air did not come up the nearest register.
