The older Montanas, like our 2003 and our 2001, have the same problem. On the Montanas, on later models, the furnace was moved to between living and bath areas and some of the newer ones get far more heat upstairs. I assume d the same was true with Mountaineer but perhaps not.

I doubt there is a lot you can do. We keep an electric heater upstairs. When we need to make sure the furnace runs downstairs to keep pipes from freezing we close the door to the upstairs and use the electric heater to augment the heat up there. We have been comfortable that way. Coldest we've been in is 5 below Fahrenheit. And several days without getting out of single digits.

Sorry not a solution. You could check to make sure there are no holes in the ductwork. It likely goes through the basement storage area. Ours also has a duct passing through the front locker.
