The fan on my heater I think its going the wrong way
It is Turing anti clock wise is this this right or should it be clock Wise

Can you not tell from the angle of the blades whether it is moving the air in the right direction?

 

[Wildbill]

Will have a look tomorow after work maybe

not certain Bill but I thought it was wired to turn clockwise

Thanks think it's weird wrongly haven't done much with the inside of the van for doing the oily bits.
But every thing OK on that front now we have always Ben warm in the van even in the depths of winter.
But I have always thought That the heating output wasn't right.
I was sorting out the hot air ducting as it was a bit of a mess had taken off the fan to de fluff it and notest the fan turning to the Left.
Tryed to swap polarities and it just tripled every thing.
So put it back as it was the wiring is a mess going to have to make sume changes.
We're going full time so I would like it to be right.
Thee was three major things with the hab
1 the boiler.
2 heating ducting
3 getting fridge working on gas
All the working gas bits we're checked yesterday and passed with flying culors
Apart from the boiler has a blown bord.
So it's a new one I think
Never had one so never mised it was thinking abut a coild heat exchanger from engine

If it's blown air, the question must be "does it blow or suck".

It is blowing but not as good as good as I would like

If it blowing it must be going the right way Bill so just check the ducts for leaks or crushing.

Put a piece of tissue by the fan Bill to see if it's sucking or blowing, you say when you reversed the polarity everything tripled?, do you mean the fan speed, if so you may have a faulty rheostat and by reversing the polarity you have bypassed it, worth a thought.

Good air flow now
And can any one tell me what this does

Thanks bill

 

[scotjimland]

It's a bit older than mine.. but similar... here is my guess...

Aus is off .. (you knew that)

Sommer is hot water only

Winter is Hot water and Blown Air heating

Red light is ' failed to ignite ' .. no gas or ignition not working

Green Light is heater On

 

[Wildbill]

OK thanks for that Jim now enlitend never knew what it done.
Only had the van three years

Had a birds nest in mine Bill......almost inside the heat exchanger.
Full heater removal and stripdown to get the bugger out.
Problem is Americans use a very open air inlet vent and small birds, possibly a wren or bluetit, can get in with ease.
