| Description of the problem | 2013 wildwood 36 ft. Travel trailer . Turning the oven on the camper got really hot . Had the exhaust fan on over the stove . Went outside to see if the vent was open and there was no outside vent . Called forest river there response was it has a charcoal filter so the hood system did not need to be piped outside. I stated where does all the heat go in my camper is this not a health hazard since the stove runs of propane. The wall behind stove and side of refrigerator are to hot for me. Fuel system and equipment as specified in ansi/nfpa 1192 standards on rvs states sealed combustion and direct venting to the outside is required for all propane appliances. I am trying to find an answer to why there is no outside vent. Been trying to resolved this between forest river and riva. Riva has been helpful in trying to get an answer for me from forest river but after three days still no word. |
