Winter protection

Okay, so this is the wrong time of year to ask, but what's the best way of protecting equipment from frost, especially if you don't have premises and have to leave machine in van?

Do you have a drive if so an electric greenhouse heater with frost control, if not a quilt. Don’t use a paraffin heater.

Failing the above take equipment in doors.

Like Len Says if you have a drive a electric heater with a thermostat, if not use a Esparcher diesel heater. Bit pricey but the Dogs undercarriage.

here we invented snow

if you use a liquid bottled gas type heater with thermotsat

be sure to keep one window open just a crack

or else it will run out of air and you will have a frozen truck.
