Hi all!
I have a winter camping-related question! So, we use a MaxxAir fan for ventilation and do not have a heat source, ie no propane or diesel heater. We do a lot of winter camping and I haven't found the right formula for 1) remaining warm 2) reducing condensation. The van is fully insulated with HaveLock wool and I have insulated window covers and an insulated fan cover. We noticed that on really cold nights (25F or lower), if we ran the fan on low or closed it altogether, we would get really cold as the fan was sucking out all of the heat, but we wouldn't have condensation on the windows in the morning. We tried the insulated fan cover so cold air wouldn't seep in from the fan opening, but that only marginally helped and it produced condensation on the windows.
Any suggestions from your own experience? On frigid nights, do I run the fan on low or cover it with insulated cover?
