I've got another question about my 2001 Montana

Should the AC unit turn on when the furnace turns on? I thought they were separate. The furnace warms the place up just fine but the AC (probably only fan) always want to turn on even though the dometic thrermostat shows furnace. There is also three wires not hooked up:

How do you know if the propane regulator is having problems? I hear a small hissing noise from that area and sometimes have a whiff of propane smell there. If the stove is on, I don't have enough fuel/pressure to run the tankless water heater at same time - which probably didn't exist when the trailer was built and so it might need a new regulator?

Any thoughts?
 
For the Furnace/AC, make sure you set your fan to Auto. Otherwise the AC fan will run as well.

How old is your propane regulator? Maybe time to replace it. Or just make sure all fittings are well tightened/sealed.
 
that worked. I had the fan set to low because I thought it would be quieter.

I think I will try and change out that regulator as an upcoming project.

thanks for the info.
