I don't believe half of this, i'm with macmac.

Sort of.

A high flow means you can work faster. So we disagree there.

What we (as in hot users) mean by min flow is that required to make it flame up.And the settings for this are often safety related. The figures quoted are highly improbable, and would lead to the flame staying on when the tap is shut but the pump still going,this will lead to boiling inside the system, and a probable burst.

It's far more likely that peter has got this wrong, or is egging it a bit.Other than  that it looks a good buy and will do what most of you want.

Slumpbuster, I am not sure if you are agreeing with the statement or disagreeing that "A high flow means you can work faster"?

I think what you mean is if the water could go through and light the heater at 0.75 litres per minute then the water will overheat inside the heater and cause it to burst?  If this is what you mean then no it can't  as it has an overheat protection and will turn the heater off.  If you were running the water that slowly through the heater then you wouldn't have the heat turned up much.

I don't really know what you mean tap off and pump still running? Do you mean a tap to the pole turned off with a build up of pressure in the heater keeping the burner on?  If so then no again, the water has to be passing through the heater at the least  0.6LPM to keep the burner on.

Remember this heater has CE certification so it must meet the safety requirements for use in this country.

A pic of the vent fitted would be great. It looks like a much neater solution than what I currently use.

Nat I have updated pictures on ebay.

This is made for my heater so it wouldn't fit the L5.  My heater also has a shut off should the flue become blocked.

There is also a securing bracket not shown in the pictures.

scrimmy, you may want to give me a ring first before you set off, as we are supposed to be getting more heavy snow.  And if it is anything like the last lot you may not get home.

How does that vent fit through the roof? The pic is small & I can't see how it would seal & keep the rain out?!

Its not really for that although it could be done.  It is more for attaching to your existing roof vent without the thing on the top.  The part on the top would keep the rain out if fitted as intended on the outside of the wall.   I was thinking more like the flue being outside the back door while the door is open to take any exhaust away from inside  the van.

Inside the back will be fine.Providing the van has a bulk head.

My heater was designed to work without a flue at all(the example is a catering trailer with people working nearby but open).
