Eric,

I dont know much about the coper reaction...

But in my '85 Westy, The rear heater will almost burn thoes sitting on the
back seat and blows gobs of air to the rest of my van.  But alas it has now
shone a small leak and I will have to replace it!  I wouldnt think of
by-passing it if you live in northern climbs.
