I've learned a lot about my Scamp by watching your tutorials. I finally started my water heater and it wasn't very scary after watching your video. I have a furnace and it starts just like you explain. Good to see you back posting a video.

Thank goodness for the Scamp furnace! I winter camped for a week in Minnesota during a freaking blizzard in our 2017 16’ Scamp, and it stayed SO warm. The only downside is that it’s either full blast super hot or off, it is also crazy loud when it comes on at night, but I don’t think there is a quieter version out there. At least it’s reliable!

Enjoy your video information. Trying to learn before ours is ready next year!

Thank you for the great tips! Oh my! The furnace seemed quite loud in the video!?

During our first camping trip, we needed to use the furnace. Starting and running it was quite easy. The only "problem" was during the first night it wasn't warming up the camper as well as we thought it should. In the morning, we found out that my wife's pillows and/or blanket would cover the thermostat, thus limiting it's ability to run the furnace. We solved the "problem" by reversing how we were in the bed and the furnace kept us toasty all night long.

Awesome! Ya we always try to sleep feet toward the thermostat too for the same reason.

Another good video! My 1991 13'er does not have a factory heater. Can you direct me to aftermarket / Scamp heater??

[@djkenny1202]

When attached to shore power, is it better to just use a little electric heater?

[@robinbliss7054]

Is there an off switch on the furnace? I was camping in high 20’s and had plenty of blankets but the furnace started cycling on its own. I’d love to not have it turn on at all in cold weather at night. Thanks for any insight.

[@ourscamplife5210]

Yes it should ours went all the way over to 50 degrees and then there was almost a "click" past that and then it was off. Hope that makes sense and helps.

Wow! that actually sounds really loud in the video ... My question is, does it actually sound very loud "in person"? Thank you for your videos, I find this very helpful as we are thinking of getting one. Subscribed!

My Scamp heater does nothing when I do what you're instructing. No sounds at all.
