That is way I haven't been using the heater. The first time I used on a trip
I noticed that was a problem and stopped using it. I am now looking for the
exhaust pipe and air intake for it. If anyone has one let me know. It does
get cold enough in TENN to use a heater. thanks, Bobby Joe Pendleton II
