Hi all,
We have had our first van for over a year now and are still trying to work out if certain niggles are "just the way it is" or if we have a problem.
We have the Truma Combi 4E system which on the whole works well. What is annoying is on a morning when we want to heat the van up and have hot water. It seems the 2 are mutually exclusive.
If I set the heating to 20 degrees and the water to "hot", then it achieves neither. It will get to 15 degrees heat and 40 degrees water. If I just put either on independently of the other, it works as it should.
Is this system really not capable of providing heat to both? Surely the system specified should be able to perform this task?
I have tried on electric and gas with the same results. It is also not because we are in the middle of winter. Currently in Europe with lovely weather.
This is the reply from Truma support: "If you have water and heating no at the same time then it will prioritise heating always unless you press boost". Doesn't really help.
Any shared experiences very welcome!
Thanks
Dean
