Hi has anyone experienced the same problem as us with our blown air heating in the swift 500 ...we have noticed that even when heating is on 2000 kw the front vents always blow out cold air but the bedroom vent is fine and blows out warm air.....my hubby looked underneath the van and noticed that the pipes come from the heater go down outside and re- enter the van underneath front seat., so he presumed this was why it was getting cold. But surely it was designed this way so has anyone else encountered the same or is there a problem with blown heating

Thanks
