I was considering getting a Kerosene bunded tank but the cost of it and the savings means it is probably not worth the effort. My thinking was, if I am fitting it myself and am happy to try and resolve any issues - I would just go cheap. Can feed hot air duct up into van in corner by seatbelt - I’m banking on this as there is no room with leis battery under seat.

The disadvantage of fitting location is that it takes up space under the seat and most likely means that space is not available for leisure batteries unless you can find a very narrow one of them. If you install one of these units inside a van then the exhaust manifold that you attach the exhaust pipe to would always be on the inside of the van and this is where it gets dangerous, if there is a leak from that point then the leak (and fumes) will be inside the van and that will cause carbon monoxide poisoning.

I will also have Truma gas/electric heating in the vehicle but think the additional diesel version may be good. The 2KW PLANAR 2D is the most compact heater model in the production line, it is intended for use in Campervans, motorhomes, crew cabins and work spaces, commercial vans and trucks, as well as boats that are up to 28 feet long. I fitted a Lithium battery just to power the diesel heater (for now) as the caravan battery and charger crapped it's pants and didn't like running the diesel heater. New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging . This could be put though a little panel on the back of the seat base to hide the heater away (please note this panel is not included in the kit but then vent to do so is included).

That being said if you have a very well insulated LWB van with a 5KW it will get hot quickly too and if you have a uninsulated WMB van with lots of windows a 2KW might struggle to keep your van warm or take ages to get to a decent temp. Depends on charging set up your van has, strength of your leisure battery and type of camping you are doing. Simply put this heater is on a par with the other top end made Diesel Air Heaters in terms of quality and efficiency (in fact a little better).

The other alternative is a small turret which provides more protection and angles off the airflow direction but does potentially get more in the way. They have a vested interest in making sure their product can deal with the most extreme of environments. On the lowest setting it's just enough to air things through and perhaps dry things out without damaging them. Autoterm diesel heaters come with a 3-year warranty and are superb for a small-medium wheelbase van where you need a boost of heat on those colder nights.

This means the physical size of the heater is the same size as a 5KW heater with 75mm ducting so is not great for anybody wanting to fit in under a van in the factory position on T5/T6 transporters or anybody that is tight on space. Effectively reduce noise through blower speed control, the speed of the fan is controlled linearly with the increasing power, and the metering fuel pump adopts an improved low-frequency pulse with low vibration. This diesel heater is integrally constructed, featuring uniform heat dissipation and high-temperature resistance.

My Chinese 2KW one heats the van nicely, gets it up to comfortable from an outside temperature of around zero in 10 to 15 minutes. I am really pleased with how fast it gets the temperature back up in the van and caravan after turn on. The heater unit uses fresh air from outside or from a well-ventilated room, then heats it up quickly, thus providing comfort and warmth in low temperature environments.
