HEATER VENTS
In my living room Up front,the vent is in the floor by the sofa and the cabnet in the Kitchen. the air hardley comes out but it comes out hard at the base of the steps but not in the living room, I put a adjustable vent in the vent by the stairs works better.. been thinking about a booster fan . anyone else tried anything else

I have read on other threads that the upper LR / Bedroom has a smaller tube that pushes the air to the upstairs area. Some thought that the heat rises anyway, therefore Keystone felt it was not as necessary to push a lot of air to the upper area. I believe the 3685 has the fireplace, under the tv, that can be used to create extra heat without using the propane, if you have that option.

I replaced all of my flexible ducts with elbows and round pipe. This way the flow is a little less restricted and I don't have to worry about puncturing or crushing any of the ductwork in the storage compartment.
In the second picture You can see the 110v receptacle I added. I stole power from the W/D receptacle in the closet. I also put one in the front compartment by the hydraulic pump.

Very tidy work, John. Looks really nice.
Have you noticed any improvement in airflow and time to heat the rig?

we had a problem with very little air to the bed room of our 3670RL
i did a little digging around under the kitchen sink, and found that the 2" line to the holding tank area had fallen off, and that the hot air was short cycling back to the furnace ...
my 1 cent,

I believe that Keystone did away with the flexible ducts in the 05's and use a solid rectangular duct that is above the locker ceiling. Hope to find out for sure tomorrow, when we finally get our new 3670RL.

They did do away with the flexible ducts in the 05's and use a solid rectangular duct. You can buy this same type duct at most hardware stores. It is used for clothes drier venting in tight areas behind the drier. I used the same duct to eliminate the flexible hose in my basement.

You can buy the ducts at most heating shops also. I would also sugguest that you insulate the duct to help keep the heat in it.
