I used to go camping with my family when I was younger.
We had a large, family sized tent that could fit all of us and it was so much fun.
I’m sure my siblings and I had way more fun than my parents did, but it was one of my favorite family memories. Now that I have a family of my own, I decided to continue my love of camping by investing in a camper. My husband and I debated on getting a tent like my family always had, but we wanted to spend the extra money to be more comfortable. I liked the idea of having running water, heat and air, and a bathroom! The camper has been worth every penny because of those three luxuries, but especially the heat and air. Our camper is newer, which means the heat and air is electric and it heats and cools the small space with ease. The only downfall I have about the HVAC system in our camper is that it doesn’t keep the temperature at a consistent temperature very well. If I turn the furnace on and set the temperature to 70 degrees, it will push out a bunch of air that’s 70 degrees for one minute and then stop for 5 minutes. In those 5 minutes, the temperature drops significantly and the camper gets really cold. Because of this, I feel like our camper is chilly for 5 minutes then really hot for a minute and then it goes back to chilly again. It’s an endless cycle that I can’t quite figure out. Whenever I’m feeling frustrated about the HVAC system in our camper, I remember that I’m not in a tent and that I should be thankful for any source of heat at all.
