folks,
I did a search but couldn't find it.
my last live aboard had electric box heaters in each space. I am moving on to a new boat that has 2 A/C heat exchangers, and I got to thinking about its use. I live in san diego, with the mild winter I wouldn't expect the heater to come on but a few times during the evening.
so the question is, do you leave the pump on all night to support the heater? that doesn't sound very efficient. are these units suitable for live aboard use, or should I use an electric blanket/ space heater?
thanks
