My thoughts, those of someone with a general knowledge, but no expert.

I really don't think it is the sail switch at all, because as Charlie said, a sail switch only proves that there is adequate...

It kinda sounds like the fan relay could be acting up. The buzzing sound could be the coil trying to engage the contacts, but not being successful.

I am not familiar with how RV furnaces are put...

Being a forced air furnace, location of the thermostat does not matter a lot. The air currents made by the furnace will eliminate any hot air rising as it naturally would.

One issue to deal with, with a higher output furnace would be more cycling. With a higher output, it would heat up quicker, so you would have more cycles, and more fan time with the air clearing...

I have stayed in our trailer well below freezing, and the furnace had no troubles at all keeping up to the temps desired. We too use a small electric heater if 120V is available, but that is not too...

I think in time most will think just like you. For some awaiting production, it was already set in their minds how things would be, and they just have to come to accept it. I think we all do the same...

Not at all. Most people I know set up their table under the awning, where they cook, eat and clean dishes. Plus whenever it is raining, we gather under the awning, sipping our coffee or cocktails. It...

Oh, and you most definitely would not want the furnace on the galley side. The exhaust gasses under the awning would be awful. We spend a lot of time sitting at the table under the awning, and this...

You see this reaction whenever there is change. It is a pretty common human trait to at first resist change, as we have seen many times before. Once people realize it is for the better they move on....
