Oasis

[Neemer]

If I correctly understand how the system works, the pump(s) are always turning regardless of whether or not AC1, AC2, or the burner is on. Is this correct?

If so, should I power off the Oasis when the coach is sitting in the garage not going anywhere?

I seriously doubt that is the case. My 20-year-old Hurricane (made by ITR, the people who make Oasis) has a pump that turns on and off as necessary when heat is called for.

I think the summer pump only runs until it reaches the required temp while the others run when the heat is on…

I don’t believe the pumps run continuously. However, I always turn off the system with the button on the front of the unit when storing for more than a week or so. It’s on my checklist to turn back on the day before I’m going to use the coach.

If yours are running full time, there is an override rocker switch on top of the control box that may have gotten switched on. (the box with all the LED lights). Mine got inadvertently switched on one time when some work was being done in the basement.

I also believe if the house master switch and the chassis master switch are both off, no power to Oasis, so nothing can run. Additionally, if AC 1 & 2 and Diesel switch is in the off position, again, system is off. Thermostat may call for heat, but if switch is not on, no heat, furnace therm will sit there until heat available I think. Have not tested it that way. There are parsatic loads on the batteries, both coach and chassis, so keeping them up is good idea.
