Those of you who have owned a Class A or C motorhome may have enjoyed the benefits of a motor aid - a system that uses hot engine coolant to keep the water in your water heater ready to go as you travel.
With the increasing use of radiant heating in our RVs, does anyone know of an after market system that would connect a towed 5ver or TT in such a way that hot coolant can be supplied while under way for space heating and hot water? I imagine a pair of quick disconnect couplings mounted in the truck bed, or rear bumper recess. If connected, a supply valve would open and allow flow through the RV systems. If disconnected, the valve body would just allow coolant to flow through unimpeded.
Any thoughts from the engineers among us?
