Hi guys happy xmas and wishing you all a fab new year I just thought I would share some images of our latest project in our 2003 auto trail.I was asked by my dad what I would like for xmas so decided on a diesel heater from Ebay we spend around 6 hours doing the install yesterday and after completing it the results are amazing and can say I will never run gas heating again. The unit burns around 0.4 to 0.2 liters per hour depending on temp setting and we have a 10 litre tank realy impressed for £137.00 delivered

Looks like a real bargain for a heating system, I’m sure they are good, but can you smell diesel fumes when it is running?

they come with only one outlet but there would be nothing to stop you putting in a 'T' piece and adding another outlet.

Hi Allanm and EG there is absolutely no smell of diesel as the heat is produced via a heat exchanger system the fan pulls the hot air from around the engine unit fins obtaining its heat the unit also has an air intake to the burner (sealed unit) and exhaust to outside as for fuel Eg it can run on red diesel normal or kerosene apparently the kerosene is better as it burns cleaner but I have yet to try
