Does any one know if this New option of Hydronic Heat is also applied to the Hot Water heating.

Yes this is a Fifth Wheel we are talking about, (Kountry Aire) and not a Class A...Newmar seems to really be on top of the industry.

Can you tell me how it works.

Thanks,

Britt

This was discussed last week, guess you could do a search, better yet, as advanced as Numar is, you'd think they would have that info on their website.

I did check their site but no info.

It was a PM to me from MountainAire34 (forum member) that brought this to my attention.

I went back and saw the post that was made. I will contact Newmar next week.

Thanks, Jim.

I googled hydronic hot water heating on the net...pretty interesting
I understand builders are incorporating this type of technology into newer built homes. Figure the more efficent heating and cooling are, the better it is for all of us.

It is applied to the hot water heating.

The 2009 Kountry Aire brochure says that as an added comfort in cool climates, you can "upgrade to the optional Precision Temp LP Hot Water Heater and Hydronic Heating System. This provides instantaneous, unlimited hot water for regular use, as well as whisper quiet space heat efficiency for the unit."

My wife and I recently purchased a 2008 Kountry Aire and this was not available or else we would have ordered it.
