Need cover for ThermX heater

live2dive · 09-07-2003, 06:47 AM

The front cover panel on the heater is missing in our Sovereign. Does anyone know where we might try to find one? It is a ThermX Mark V.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Have you ever used that heater? If so how well does it work, and does it give of fumes bad?

Hi Greg. We haven't used it other than lighting it just to test it. The owner's manual says "no fumes" or words to that effect.

We have a ThermX Mark III (?) catalytic heater which seems to be fine. We use it for about 10 minutes on cool evenings just to take the chill off before bedtime. It seems to operate perfectly -- no fumes -- but just the same I make sure it is off with the gas petcock closed before going to bed.

The biggest problem with it is that it cranks out a LOT of heat. Even on the lowest setting we can't run it with the side couch converted to a bed, because it will scorch the blankets and sheets.
