32RLS Heat - Or Lack of it

[justdee]

I just went out and tested the heat circulation again.
I took a piece of toilet paper and cut the ends into slices so they would 'flutter freely'. With the heat on, I put the paper over each of the vents.
The one next to the bed came in 3rd with movement.
The bathroom was in 2nd place.
The vent underneath the coffee bar was the clear winner at #1 with a lot of movement and the noise from the air being forced out.
And lastly was the twin vents at the end of the island. Barely any movement, but once I sealed off one vent, the airflow increased out the other side and was noticeably improved with the toilet paper showing some movement.
I bet that this is as good as it is designed. Those island vents are the furthest from the furnace so it makes sense that they have the least amount of airflow.

Having the same issue. We have a 2024 Avenue 32RLS we purchased in Sept of this year and now that is it getting a bit cold, We are using the heater now and find that the only vents we have are 1 in the bedroom on the floor and 1 in the bathroom on the lower wall and the 2 vents at the end of the island. I don't think we have a vent at the base of the coffee bar. Now for the air flow issue. Our bathroom heater vent blows like there is no tomorrow (like an oven in there) and the bedroom vent blows ok but the 2 in the kitchen at the end of the island have just about no air flow coming out. I also covered one vent on the island side near on the stove side and it did help a little. I was looking at the vent connections at the heater and was wondering if anyone has thought about disconnecting the one hose that blows the hardest and connect it to the one connector on the heat unit that feeds the bathroom. Has anybody done this to get better air flow in the living room area and less in the bathroom ? I also looked under the island and the hot air that comes out of the vent just goes up into the island because there is no cover or anything to keep the heat from going up as heat rises. I have a call in to tech support at Alliance and will report back if there is an answer to the issue. Hopefully this is not too confusing. Thanks Alies !
