Effie07 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I was planning on buying a camper and my wife was the one who suggested we get a wheel house. After she said that, I pretty much let her design it as I didn't want to give her any reason to have second thoughts. Smell? I assume you are referring to the fish smell left over from winter. I had thought about getting a second layer of carpet backed with plastic to lay over the original carpet, but that seems like a lot of extra work when a guy can spend a couple of hours in the spring with a carpet cleaner. If you buy an Ice Castle, the $760 investment for an A/C unit is a no brainer if you are planning on using it for camping or hunting. The unit I have on my house pulls around 7 amps on max cool and I never run it on anything more than low cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bak2MN Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I just use a long rug to go down the center of my house and take that out in the spring and leave the windows open a bit to air out. Dont notice the smell at all and used it for three years now. I also dont slop fish and bait all over the floor either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes it easy to go hunting, can put 12 foot boat on truck for fishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
