I have a puck 120gt and this spring aiming to move to a Triton 420, I've booked into Lytchett minster manor for a couple of weeks in order to check out the local dealer which is where I bought the puck from in 2012. which is also why I discovered Lytchett manor camp site.
Any advice on the use of the integral gas heater as I have never used it and my wife thinks it might be cold this spring.

My advice would be to:

1. check that you have a screw-in chimney extension to ensure that the products of combustion are carried above the level of the pop top vents,

2. remove the front cover and clean out all dust from the inside and from the fan blades. You will be amazed what muck accumulates in there and it really stinks when it gets hot. You may find this post useful.

3. check that the igniter battery is good and replace with a Duracell PP9 or similar if in any doubt,

4. Make sure that the gas supply is turned on (there is an isolating tap for the fire - one of three - under the sink) and then try lighting the heater to make sure all is working fine before you set off on your trip.,

5. Consider taking a small oil-filled electric heater with you if you want to leave the heating on all night (some people are worried about sleeping with the gas fire on - a carbon monoxide alarm is a good investment).

We love our Triton. The gas heater had been removed by a previous owner so we use an oil filled rad. It warms up very quickly and it's so tiny.

Hi and welcome. We got a Troll 540Gt this summer and the gas fire works great. Following advice from this Forum we got a couple of extension tubes from AL to take fumes well clear of pop top. I am a bit neurotic about the gas running out on cold nights so we also got a small oil filled radiator which works really well. We then also picked up a cheapish low voltage halogen heater to give us a quick blast of more direct heat without using the gas fire. We stayed a few nights when it was below freezing and coped really well.
