Thermostat Controls

FIGURE 3-1: TIMBERLINE TOUCH

The Timberline system is controlled with the Timberline touch screen control, seen in Figure 3-1. The best way to use the Timberline system is to enable the burner  , the electrical element , and the hot water icon . The Timberline system will self-manage, prioritizing the element if the coach is plugged in and only using the diesel/gas burner as needed. When it’s cold outside, set the thermostat to your desired temperature and the system will manage energy while maintaining the selected set point. If you are utilizing multiple 120V appliances at the same time (coffee maker, AC, etc.) you can turn off the electric element to conserve amperage and the Timberline system will maintain hot water and heat via the diesel burner. If you want to conserve diesel you can choose only the electric element. The controls for the air conditioner are located on the unit. The air conditioner can also be controlled via Bluetooth.
