Description:
This compact diesel heater brings rapid warmth to small vehicles and enclosed spaces, making cold starts and damp interiors much more comfortable. Suitable for campervans, RVs and garages, this portable unit supports both 12V/24V DC and 110-240V AC operation and is useful when you need reliable heat on the move or at a site.
Key Points
The heater offers a claimed output of 8 kW with reported fuel consumption between 0.11 and 0.48 L/h, so it can heat a cabin quickly while keeping running costs moderate. It features an LCD display and remote control for simple temperature and timer settings, and an internal combustion system that the manufacturer states maintains output temperatures from about 8 °C to 36 °C. For noise-sensitive situations the unit includes mufflers and a quieter pump, although operation may reach up to 75 dB in some conditions 🔥.
This model is built from aluminium alloy components designed for effective heat transfer and reduced carbon build-up. It can be used as a window defroster or as sustained cabin heating in vehicles, boats and small rooms. Note that external exhaust routing is recommended and professional installation is advised to ensure safe operation and correct venting.
