Finally getting round to order a hot water heater, but one thing thats bothering me is the fittings? Do they come with the heater to connect hoses and has upto a bottle?
I will be working with my heater on the back doors of the van and im getting a rain cover to go over the flu but so the gas's can still escape.
Do they use the same gas as a bbq gas bottle?
-
why don't you ask the supplier who you are buying the heater from what fittings/hoses it comes with?
covering up the heater? sounds like you dont have a clue in what you are doing and your buying something that in the wrong hands could be very dangerous

I presume this is a cowl, as fitted to domestic central heating flues. Specially designed for the purpose.

No Ian, most likely a bit of the cardboard box it came in 😄

Personally I get the same results in summer and winter,using water out of my tank,just that it's colder shouldn't make any difference if your doing a good job.
The only difference I get is cold hands but in the south it's not as cold as up north,so I understand why you want heated water and a hot pole must be nice lol

My take on it is the hot/warm water will evaporate quicker and so reduces the chance of collecting airborne dirt.

Hot water also freezes quicker than cold..lovely for making
ice skating rinks if you cant grit ;D
Been handy to use for conny and fascia cleans during the summer
though :)

Scramble i think you dont have a clue about reading a post properly....
A flu pipe is for fumes to escape, i didnt say i was covering it did i? What i said was...
I was getting a RAIN COVER made to cover the top of the heat but obviously not stopping the fumes escaping out of the flu.
We have a log burner at home? The top of the flu had a rain cover on? Should we tell the profesional installers to take it off?
read posts properly next time.

Someone on here said pure water has a lower freezing point than tap water, so I looked it up and was baffled by geeky quotes. Something to do with it not having nucleations or other. And after reading a lot of tripe I've no intention of looking up what you've said. I'll take your word for it. :)
