I'd say get a hotwash from Aquatec (Peter fogwill) and a refillable LPG tank and your cold system is now a hot system. Should be around £400. Alternative is a diesel heater for thousands of pounds.

Wouldn't be a refillable for £50. They aren't cheap but worth it in my opinion.

Also is it including flue? Including valves to isolate heater so it can be used as just a cold system. What about bypass to tank? Bits and bobs add up.

refill depends on what size bottle you have ;)

I'm talking about the ones you can refill yourself at the petrol station, which ultimately is a much much cheaper alternative :

To name a few, none of them are £50.
