Good question.Wandering Sagebrush said:Mark, I looked at the pics, but i am curious about running the rubber hose so close to the stove burner. My guess is there is a cover that goes over that area, but have you ever checked to see if the hose is getting hot?...
I agree! We shade tree mechanics and heating engineers need to stick together.MarkBC said:<stuff clipped>
As I said in that illustrated post above:
"Disclaimer: Follow the advice of propane professionals (I'm not one) when doing something like this."
I mounted our Wave 3 below the OEM furnace with two machine screws that are fixed with nuts on both sides of the plywood. Our Wave 3 had two keyhole slots on the back for this sort of mount. I disconnect the heater if we are on rough roads, but otherwise it will stay mounted even on typical washboard.craig333 said:I need to extend the hose on mine and make it freestanding so can put it on the counter. I'd love to do what you do but traveling with a dog makes that an unwise option.
The 3pinners did it...van isle said:Does camco make a swing away mount for these heaters?
I'd like to mount my wave 3 below the cabinets and be able to swing it into the walkway to direct the heat into the camper.
Well, kind of. Hot Air rises, but heat will conduct in all directions across a surface, moving from hotter areas to colder areas. Also, that hot surface will radiate heat in all directions regardless of gravity .MarkBC said:Good question.
Yes, there is a cover/tray under the burners. No, I haven't ever checked to see if the hose gets hot. My guess is "Not significantly", what with the "heat rises" thing and the reflective nature of the metal tray..but maybe I'll check next time I use the stove.
Sure... but the fact that hot air rises is the main effect (that's why cookware is placed above the flame).wuck said:Well, kind of.

That is the kind of bracket I was thinking of. Got it on my Amazon wish list and will add it into my shell build.SunMan said:
Sure, I'll message you my number.mpoliver said:Thanks for the responses about the Wave 3. I sort of figured our's was normal but wanted to check. We may end up getting a forced air furnace installed and use both it and the Wave 3 as suggested by several.
Before we go that route I may see if can borrow a Buddy heater and see how that works for a night or two.
Shadyapex - any chance you want to loan me yours for a night so I can try it out? I'm in Bishop.
