Whitehawk furnace noise

This is our first week with our new Whitehawk 28BHKS. We have noticed that the furnace is much louder than our 20MRB from the outside. Sounds like a jet engine noise coming out the vent. Is this normal? I don't notice other campers in the campground being as loud as ours.

They can definitely be very noisy. I suspect what you're hearing is the norm.

I would say it's normal. I thought the same thing especially compared to our old TT. Seems to go through propane a bit faster too. On the plus side it heats up the trailer fairly quickly

Forced air furnaces in RV are always noisy, in homes they are much quieter.
The Atwood has a small squirrel gage fan and in order to move air the rpm has to go up.
And yes at least they keep you warm. How better the insulation how less they will run.
I noticed the difference with a enclosed underbelly.
