HOw much is the propane and who much do you go through?
-
£400 for a heater that you might only use for 4 weeks of the year!!sorry but im not getting one!!then you have to buy propane for it?
oil filled radiators DO WORK!!ive had mine on overnight a few times when its been sub zero.van toasty and warm in the morning with no frozen pumps,water etc.also you dont have to defrost the windscreen!! :D :D
-
I think with your van daz its a bit easier as its a smaller space
My tank and gear survived last night , left heater on 12-7
HOwever it wasnt hot in the back by any means , any colder and i think stuff wouldve froze anyway
And it wasnt that bad here last night -3 maybe at most
BUt i to am a bit put off by £400
Could get decent hot set up for that , with a fogwash or similar
-
even cheaper, send the wife in there when she goes on one!
plenty of hot air there!! ;D
(dead man walking here, it was nice knowing you all)
disclaimer: my wife is my all and my life, my love
(looks ove shoulder to see if she is looking) :-X

sean leave it on the full setting 9pm until 10 mins before you go to work.with a 2000w rad it should be nice and toasty.probably cost you £2 a night but worth it if it gets you out for 4-5 hours today!!
best wishes

My gear was freezing up night before last in not much below 0
Although it had been cold all day so i think that didnt help and water level was quite low as hadnt filled
Last night with rad it was ok
Not hot but not frozen , which is what counts , and i think last night was cooler than the previous

Sorry to hijack the thread but i couldnt recomend and immersion heater more, and for a franction of the price of one of these heaters gav, keeps van warm, reels and pump frost free and the water is warm coming thru pole, i cleaned my van at 4 o clock today and it was still warm to touch. Can get an immersion for less than £30, and cost of running about £1.50 a night.

Did you install yourself?
Was building a camper last year and looked at webasto heaters, but gave up on the idea as it involved tapping diesel tank.
-

its simple to do
im no diy er believe me
