Why is my AC fan running when I turn my furnace on?
My ac fan is running, sucking in cold air. I need to run heat, but the fan wont shut off. This is happening on the furnace selection on my thermostat. Propane bottles full, heat comes out of the floor, but cool air is also being blown out of the ceiling vents.

Yes the intake and exhaust are an inch apart.
We run our a/c fan with the heat on to circulate the air.

We had the same thing happen to us the first camp out with our new TT. I could not figure out what the heck was wrong. But someone told me very fast what to do. Love this forum

AC fan running with heat
I was told that the fan circulates heat that rises to the ceiling.
