  1. I have a 2007 diplomat 40skq. Currently it has 2 penguin ii with heat pumps. I know the Houghton has a remote control thermostat. I also have 2 Atwood furnaces and all operate off of a Dometic 5 button thermostat. I would like to change my front unit to a Houghton. Question is how would the front furnace operate? Will it still work of existing thermostat or would some kind of retrofit be required?  Thanks in advance.

  2. You can just get some styrofoam insulation board and cut in strips to cover the openings on the back of existing cover. Use the aluminum duct tape to secure them in place. Then cut one piece of styrofoam to cover the strips and tape it securely. This way it is airtight and insulated. No paint to try and match and much cheaper.

  3. I suggest you try liquid steel putty first. I have used it many times with good success. Just clean the area good with sand paper and some acetone. You can apply it it to the area even if it is damp from diesel. Just dry best you can and make sure you apply it past the damp area. Only cost about 6 bucks to try first and save lots of time.
