Product Information

When purchasing, you are kindly recommended to focus on the heater power and number of air outlets. The heater power is notable for its effect on heating efficiency. And the number of outlets determines the air volume. If you have a large vehicle or room, we recommend a 4-tuyere diesel air heater. Besides, depending on your operating habit, you can choose the heater with a digital panel or knob control.

Usually I wouldn’t recommend cheap brands nobody has ever heard of for something as important as a campervan heater. For example, my top recommendations for campervan fridges, leisure batteries and solar panels are all by reputable brands, since most of the time you get what you pay for.Diesel heating systems come in various sizes and configurations and can be utilized for commercial and residential uses. All-in-one Diesel Heater: Heater Power: 5KW; Rated Voltage: 12V; Working Temperature of the Heater: -40℃~+50℃; Working Temperature of the Oil pump:-40℃~+40℃; Fuel Consumption: 0.18 – 0.48 (L/H); Fuel Gasoline: Diesel Only. We have got you covered with this diesel air heater to warm your car and remove the windows’ frost on cold winter days. With fast heating and low noise, the aluminum heater runs smoothly in any harsh environment. It doesn’t have a thermostat, rather it has different heat settings which can be adjusted on the digital control panel or via the remote control. There is also the option to set a timer – instant heat from the comfort of your van bed! If you’re looking for a heater with a warranty and longevity, opt for the more premium models. Budget heaters use cheaper materials which are more likely to fail over the shorter term and warranties are non-existent. Fuel efficiency

My calculations are that if you can get red diesel then the cost of running a 2KW diesel heater is a quarter of the price to a third of the price of gas bottles and probably half the cost of LPG. Summary. Not as noisy as expected, much cheaper to run than expected. Dead easy to install and a good level of heat even on the lowest setting. For a caravan it is better because refillable LPG are not always practical. For a motorhome if you use the main diesel tank I think it still works out cheaper than LPG in a refillable but perhaps not as clear cut depending on the price of Diesel. However, if you are fulltiming during the winter. Having the diesel heater running from your main tank gives you a much long run time before needing to seek a refill. With a dual 13KG gaslow in the peak of winter you would be seeking a refill every 14-18 days. A 90 Litre tank in a fiat ducato would last 53 Days. So there is that advantage to consider also. In 2009 and 2010 winters I got snowed in and had a hellish job getting cyclinders delivered. I couldn't get out to get my Gaslow bottles topped up. It hasn't happened since, but... No separate fuel source required since they run off diesel in the running tank (for plumbed in heaters)

If you have limited installation space or want to match a larger fuel tank, a split-type parking heater is a better choice. It features a compact size, occupies little space, and can be matched with a 10L or even big oil tank to prolong the combustion time. Low electrical power consumption – heaters require a surge in power to get going but once up and running use very little electricity (around 0.5 to 1 amps once running). Diesel heaters are therefore low wattage heaters for camper vans. Remember to consider the small surge required by a heater when calculating your solar energy costs.

Third, although it may come as a surprise, altitude has a significant role. The more fuel you use, the higher you will go. If you intend to maintain an extremely low attitude or average ground level, it is optional for you to give it any thought. In this guide I focus on air heaters, but in the future I suspect hydronic heaters will become more popular as they become more affordable.

The heaters have proved their excellent quality, working in aggressive environments, such as, marine environments. Most modern vans have a pressured fuel system. Do not attempt to just plumb straight into a fuel line using a 'T' piece. Fuel must come directly from the fuel tank using the standpipe supplied. Features The second factor is the temperature that the air heater must bear. For instance, if your area experiences severe winters. You can anticipate considerable fuel and energy usage from your indoor diesel heater when operating. The diesel air heater will have to burn through more fuel to provide you with the required heat.

If you have a bigger campervan, such as a Mercedes Sprinter or a Renault Master (like I have), opt for a 5KW heater or bigger. To manage the build up of carbon soot in the heater is recommend to use to the heater as per the manufacturers recommendations. For example, avoid running the heater for less than 10-15 minutes at a time and periodically give the heater a blast by running it at its highest for 10 minutes. Running the heater at high altitudes will also cause excessive build up so sure to give the heater those blasts more often.
