Oasis Fuel Usage

[MemoriesByTheMile]

Learning as I go along! I didn't want to run the heatpumps constantly, so I figured I'd give the Oasis a shot and see how it performed. And it performed well, just hasn't been all that cost affective for what I'm trying to do.

I'll try the AC1/AC2 setup for a couple of weeks and see how that works.

I’ll be curious if AC1/2 works for heating your coach. For us it does not put out enough BTUs to heat the interior air, only the water. IIRC, 50,000+ BTUs on the diesel burner vs 5,000 on AC1 and 10,000 on AC2.

But, heated floors will maintain the Coach temp approx 25 degrees above the outside temp if it isn’t too windy.

I find that a small electric “cube“ heater in the kitchen area is better for maintaining a comfortable overnight cabin temp because it puts put enough heat and doesnt make near the noise of the Oasis fans, much less that of a heat pump. If I had heated floors I would try that first to enjoy absolutely quiet heat. The slightest noise wakes me up so cycling fans of any kind are a problem for me.
