Hey there, I'm prepping for a trip and it's 58-60 degrees F outside, I have a rather new pup/unit, do you or anyone else here know, does it take a particular temperature to turn on my AC compressor in my unit? I've read some can be damaged if it's not hot enough, so maybe a failsafe? I'm going to Florida soon, and just don't want to be caught without AC. Thanks!!
My AC just runs fan at the moment, at any setting, but again, its not hot at the moment
I’ve not heard of any failsafes such as that.
@It's Poppin' - Pop Up Camping ok, I think the range at which the thermostat is set to is too hot. With the thermo knob all the way cool I think it cools to 60 or 65 ambient, so if it's cooler it doesn't have the need to cut on. I found this is adjustable on the lower unit though. It's supposed to get warmer tomorrow so I'll try it again and see if it's thay, hopefully the case and nothing else is wrong
Thank you so much for these basics videos! We don't have a manual so without these we basically wouldn't know how to operate our pop-up!
You're welcome
I just love the way this video was produced and edited! Lighting, everything looks so good!
Brand new to pop-ups, but your video helped me get my LP furnace working. Thank you because it was cold outside. 🥶
thank you for the simplicity of your videos
Very helpful bro thank you! Im a first time owner of a camper and I appreciate you sharing this cuz i had no idea.
Good suggestions.
what if the heater just keeps running without ever getting hot? i have a 2000 jayco eagle pop up . we just went camping and it never got hot . i had the generator on and the propane on. what setting should i have had the knob ..... on the electiric or flame setting ?
any help will be very appreciated. THANK YOU
I can't get my left side knob to turn to all of the settings. Any ideas?
Thanks so much for this... we have the same suburban heater so I think our issue is the heater itself needs to be turned on. Have to let you know in spring lol she is packed away for the winter.
Atwood furnace
I have the same exact AC unit! The reason you have 2 low fan settings is because you can add on an electric heat strip kit which comes with a new knob. Its plug and play and actually only takes a few minutes! The new knob has a Low Heat option in place of one of the Low fan settings. The heat strip is great for using when its cool out! i think they cost around $40-$50 for the kit! A whole lot cheaper to run than the propane unit!
Interesting, thanks for the info!
@@ItsPoppin we are doing our first trip with our 7 month old tomorrow thru the weekend. The heat strip and a space heater is our only heat source and it supposed to get down to 31. Ill let you know how well the heat strip preforms HAHA
@@joshnorris90 Hey! How'd the heat strip work? I'm looking to purchase one for my pop up as well.
@@nowayjose5531 it does a decent job with gal type temps. But you’d still need a extra heater to help it out. But it does make a difference! I’d buy it again. But keep in mind, it doesn’t get hot hot. It just warms the air. But makes a considerable difference!
so for the heater to work it has to be from the propane? and the battery switch needs to be on? Mine keeps blowing the fuse though. Everything works great with the cable power.
Your videos are great, thanks for making them! I think you have the best popup content on UA-cam. My husband and I just got a 2004 popup camper. I’m really curious on how long you could run things off the battery if you don’t have access to shore power. I’m not sure if you have done a video dedicated to 100% boondocking in a popup?
Thank you! And we do not have a boondocking video, mainly because we never do any boondocking. As far as how long you can run things on your battery, it just depends on what you're running and how big your battery is.
How get the furnace working om 07 everest 5th wheel camper made by keystone
What is the safest, warmest way to heat my full time pop up camper without electricity? Buddy's are garbage. 1995 Starcraft, no unboard heater. I used a 1500 W column electric heater but it couldn't take me through the 20 degree Fahrenheit or less days.
Just got a new (to me 2019 jayco sport) pop up camper, it doesn’t have AC but does have AC prep. I tried using a couple different portable AC’s in the pop up and neither worked to cool it down at all, do the actual roof mounted AC units make a difference and would it be worth the investment? I’m anticipating it will cost $1,500 for the unit and professional installation but sitting on the fence on if it will work if the portable units didn’t? The portable units I have vent the hot exhaust out of the window btw, I’ve used the same units in a tent and they did fantastic so I’m so confused why they wouldn’t work in this set up
The rooftop units do work quite well
Thank you for the reply!
Do you have a video on how to light the furnace?
To bad the heater doesn't have electric heating coils. We ran out of Propain yesterday.. Luckily were in Beautiful Colorado and not to cold.
part number and link to thermostat?
Hi, I installed a brand new battery for the 210 Coleman Pop up but its still not turning on the lights even. Not sure whether its charging after connecting with the vehicle or not. Please advice
It could be a number of things. It may be a blown fuse, kill switch disconnect, bad converter, poor wire or ground connection, etc etc. You’ll have to troubleshoot it.
Keep in mind a 7 pin connection between your tow vehicle and the pop up is required to charge the battery via the tow vehicle.
I owned a Jayco 1008 model pop-up.
Couple questions:
1. Can I turn on the heater using only propane or 2. Does it has to have the battery to turn on the pump power switch? So the heater could work?
The last time we went out camping. I realized that the heater wasn't working and the pump switch doesn't work. I checked all the fuses. The only thing I could think of the battery was lowed. I didn't have anything to check the battery. Is that the reason?
1. Heater requires both propane and 12v power to run the heater fan. 2. By pump switch, do you mean the water pump switch? If so, no, this won't affect the heater at all.
Thanks for the video. I have the same heater and it turns on and goes through the self ignnight a few times but never lights. If I stand near the exhaust on the outside of the camper and smell as the cycle runs I can smell the gas. I can also see and hear the spark in the sight glass. Do you have any suggestions?
Sounds like you have all of the basic prerequisites, so I'm guessing something is wrong with the furnace itself. Google Atwood furnace troubleshooting, and the first result is a handy PDF with a troubleshooting guide. Sounds like your problem is the "fan runs but no heat." It could be a number of issues, unfortunately.
I have a 1994 StarCraft small pop up camper and could you tell me or direct me in a video on what is going on with it. The thermostat has a separate on and off switch and when I turn it on the fan comes on on the heater but after 10 min the air is still cold coming out of the heater. The air coming out from the outside exhaust feels warmer than inside. This was tested when the temperature was 36 degrees and a light wind. The camper was just raised to test the heater. I’m new to this and don’t really know what to expect or check. Thank you so much for any advice.

@@ItsPoppin thank you
I have a Starcraft galaxy 6 it’s a 1978 and I don’t have a thermostat. I can’t find a video on how to get it to turn on. I’m so confused. It’s a duo therm . If you have any tips it would be so helpful.
I may be wrong because I don't have any experience with old duotherm heaters, but it doesn't make sense for there to be no thermostat. Is it possible that a previous owner removed it for some reason?
Thank you for the video
Thanks for watching!
@@ItsPoppin absolutely your videos are simple and easy to follow and understand. I have gotten a free pop up been fixing it up been working on the heater. Super helpful
This is generally for everyone, QUESTION
Hey there, I'm prepping for a trip and it's 58-60 degrees F outside, I have a rather new pup/unit, do you or anyone else here know, does it take a particular temperature to turn on my AC compressor in my unit? I've read some can be damaged if it's not hot enough, so maybe a failsafe? I'm going to Florida soon, and just don't want to be caught without AC. Thanks!!
My AC just runs fan at the moment, at any setting, but again, its not hot at the moment
I saw on trailer you need to self ignite...I just purchased one so I dont know if mine has it or not?
Could you rephrase your question or add some more details?
The reason you have low fan twice is because they make this same system but with a heat option instead of a second low fan
Can u recharge the ac if it's not cold
Its my understanding that rooftop air conditioners are closed systems and cannot be recharged. I would look into your specific model though.
Is there no pilot light to ignite?
No, at least not on any of the models we’ve had.
I own a 2020 Flagstaff Tent (Make) 176 LTD (Model). Can I use my furnace off-grid?
Yep, just need propane and a battery.
@@ItsPoppin Thank you for responding so quickly, very much appreciated. I'm going camping up North in Maine at the end of May. It will still be cold up there but I'll only use the furnace at night, for 2 nights only. Will a full propane tank and a fully charged battery be enough?
You'll definitely have enough propane. With the battery, I think you'd be fine, but maybe others who camp off grid more can chime in.
Not trying to be mean, but I don't like staring 😕 at your face so close up. This channel blow if you really really minimize the close ups.
Ok thanks, trying to improve every video a little bit.
