Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | My LQ has ducted heat and air with a wall thermostat. When I turn the heat on, the blower runs for a couple of minutes and shuts off. Warm air never comes out. The darn thing worked fine in november. I don't think it runs on propane. I'm at a barrel race and cold. Help! |

Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | I don't think it's cold enough today to be frozen over. I haven't checked fuses. I guess the heat part is on a different one from the blower? |

So its not the propane furnace its the heat strip or heat pump that's not working? It might be that its too cold for it to work. I have a heat pump and if its too cold outside or thermostat shows too cold inside my LQ then it kicks off and my propane furnace automatically kicks in. |

Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | Fuses appear to be fine. I think it's a heat pump. It's in the 50s outside but it's colder inside. I bought this trailer used last summer and never have gotten around to reading all the papers that came with it. There are only 2 propane vents I can find--1 for fridge and 1for hot water heater. When we camped in it last fall, it got down in the 20s one night and everything worked fabulously. |

The only way I would know I have a heat pump is it says HP and then a number on the thermostat. If its real cold inside your trailer....say its 30 degrees in there and you set the thermostat to 70, my heat pump will try to run for a minute then kick out and the propane furnace will kick in. Once it gets warm enough in there the heat pump will continue to run without a problem. Try setting your thermostat to a lower setting. Again, if its 30 inside set the thermostat to 33 or something like that and see what happens. I bought my trailer new and it took me literally a couple years before I figured all this out. |

Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | I'm not positive it isn't propane, but I switched to a new bottle and it didn't help. Hang on a I'll post thermostat pic. I also found the heater model number finally and am about to look it up. It's a suburban nt205 |

Good idea--I think I still have her number in my phone. Got 130 peeps before I run...about 3 hours at the rate they're going. I thought it was going to be warmer today. Ugh! |

Location: Riding Crackhead. | Are you sure that's not propane and your propane is empty or turned off? Its not a heat pump and if there's a heat strip through the AC it should have a button for electric heat. |

Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | It apparently is propane. Who knew? LOL I looked up the manual for it and found the vent. I switched over to a new tank and it still won't work. Manual said maybe air in the line and cycle it several times, so I tried that but no go. |

I don't know what you have in your trailer but I have a 3 burner cook top in mine. When I have an air bubble I turn a burner on and try to light it. Once lit you know for sure the air bubble is gone. |
