Would it be a bad idea to remove the heater hoses that go from the upper cowling to the heat muffs and to the cabin heat valve for the cockpit?
Reason I ask is it seems I get a trace amount of heat coming through the valve when closed and adding tiny but of heat to the cabin. Not good in the summer. I rarely ever use the heat and when I do I can only crack it it gets so toasty.
So will it overheat the muffs if no air is flowing through them? Or I could remove hoses from valve and dump the hot air downward through the cowling?
Thoughts?
Thanks
