How to Choose Configuration of Caravan?

A lot of newcomers to buying a caravan, often the priority concern is the layout of the interior of the caravan. Of course, just like the layout of the house is a top priority, the layout of the caravan is reasonable and does have a direct impact on the quality of the life of the traveler. It is just that novices should avoid falling into the misconception of blindly pursuing the number of "seats" and "sleepers", and actually arrange the "seats" and "sleepers" according to the number of people who really use the vehicle for a long time. The number of "sleepers", and pay more attention to whether the bathroom is large enough, the bed is comfortable enough, storage space is sufficient, the kitchen is suitable for the needs. The most easily neglected by novices is the water configuration inside the RV. The "water" here refers to the water and sewage of the RV, while the "energy" includes what kind of energy is used for cooking, heating, cooling, refrigerators, etc., and how the energy of the whole RV is replenished and stored. Because the caravan should be able to do away from the municipal facilities self-sustaining operation, especially in the case of China's campground less everyone is all on their own, caravan water and energy, also become the most important.

diesel air heater

The heater on the caravan can be divided into two categories, one relying on the heat generated by the combustion of fuel, including fuel warming (further including diesel warming and gasoline warming), gas warming, gas water heating, engine coolant warming; the other is dependent on electricity, including electric heating, electric oil, electric floor heating and various types of air conditioning. Oil heater is currently the most mainstream heating system in domestic RVs. There are two reasons for this. Firstly, for self-propelled caravans, which account for the absolute mainstream of the domestic caravan market, there is a major advantage of using fuel heating, that is, you can use the fuel in the caravan's own fuel tank, if it is a diesel engine, with diesel heating; gasoline engine, with gasoline heating. This saves the trouble of adding an extra energy storage device. Generally RVs will install the parking heater under the tail bed or bay, because the hot air goes upwards, and this arrangement is also easy to spread the heat to the whole vehicle. The second reason is because a large number of medium and large trucks in China need to install fuel heater because the driver needs to park and rest (the reason for choosing fuel is the same as self-propelled RVs). If it is a trailer caravan, then the choice of fuel heater is also to add extra fuel tank. Theoretically, in some places this kind of fuel tank that is not used to drive the vehicle can not just refuel, but in practice the general gas station will take this kind of fuel tank as the power fuel source to drive the trailer RV. The choice of fuel heater for a trailer also involves the choice of fuel type. Gasoline warm air has the advantage of being slightly cleaner and less odorous. The principle of gas warm air is similar to that of oil warm air, are direct combustion of fuel to heat the hot air, in essence, a boiler + a fan. Compared to using fuel, the benefits are cleaner, no odor, and much less noise. The cost of fuel is similar to gasoline warm air in accordance with the lower oil prices and higher gas prices in recent years.
