night heater

IS it possible to fit the drivers swivel plate Kiravans model when the Erbesprecher heater outlet duct is fitted to the seat base box ... or alternatively will the seat base box need replacing with the Kiravans swivel .. can this then be drilled to fit the outlet heater duct.

Now as the nights are getting cooler I am wondering what people who haven't got heating installed use. Assuming on electric hookup I think the main options would be either small oil filled radiator or electric blanket (either under or over). Wondering what are peoples thoughts or solutions for...

As per the title, I’m curious to find out where everyone has mounted their night-heater thermostat. I ask as our camper conversion is nearly complete and I’m struggling to find a location that is both practical for use as well as being at a decent distance from the heater outlet. We’ve got a...

Was wondering if anyone can recommend a diesel air and water heater. Need a diesel air heater but want to have the hot water heater as part of the same unit. Any make will do as long as it's reliable and can heat a T6 SWB as well as provide hot water for a shower.

Hi guys, does anyone have any recommendations for a plug in heater for the camper? I’ve seen this one on amazon, however the reviews are more for the home than a camper, any thoughts on the best option?

Hello. I was not sure whether to resurrect the old diesel hob thread from 2016/2017 but I am sure it can be merged it needed. We are currently looking at converting our van. One of the examples we were shown had a WALLAS diesel hob/heater which looked quite good. Have read up on them but a lot...

Hi all, after spending a couple of chilly nights off grid in the Van. I have decided that I will be fitting the above. The question is about whether it's best to fit underneath or under the drivers seat! Will there be much of a difference noise wise? I am leaning towards fitting it under the...

Welcome to my conversion thread. We bought out van back in Feb, since then I've been carrying out work in fits and bursts as time allows but with easter holidays upon me, it's now full steam ahead with getting as much done as possible before work once again ruins my fun. Before by Strange Al...

Bought a new eberspacher heater with all the bits from pal who has decided not to go t6 route but don’t want (and don’t have time) to fit myself into mine so looking for person / place that can !!! Any recommendations??

I have picked up today from a friend of mine a Webasto 3500 diesel air heater and will be fitting it within the next few weeks to my T6 Kombi. Would just like peoples advice, preferences, advantages or disadvantages on fitting positions, under van, under seat etc. Which is quietest or easiest to...

So, reading a few facebook posts about differences people find using normal and hi-octane diesel got me thinking. Being a skinflint and it's only a work van with occasional camping use, I've just fitted a chinese diesel heater. I've read that the only thing they generally suffer is the...

Odd question but, if I leave the webasto heater running all night, does that affect the average mpg on the MFD? Presumably the fuel used by the heater would be considered fuel used by the engine, as far as the MFD is concerned. Assuming it calculates mpg on fuel used/remaining in the tank that...

Hey gang, Just wondered for those who have converted their wet diesel heater to remote, do you use it for overnight parking. TBH, I can't see it being any good overnight as it will have too much draw, what with running the oem climate heater controls, coolant pump etc etc. Just wondered if...

Hi, Has anyone had any experience with the cheap Chinese heaters that are flooding eBay? I’ve seen quite a few people now saying they are reliable and not seen any real negativity around them. I was considering buying one and setting up in the garage to test one over the winter. If anyone...

Hi guys, I wonder if anyone can help, my T6 is fitted with a gas Truma heater installed under passenger seat, not used it yet but may need it soon due to cooler season coming. I have a brochure which mentions removing/opening a "cowl" before starting it up. I don't know what/where to find this...

Hi All, Not sure if this is of use but I took a few pictures as I fitted my D2 diesel heater, may help people having a go themselves. I’m not a pro at fitting these and this is the first I have done, any criticism is welcome. For reference this is the underslung T6 specific kit and I’m...

So, here goes; having received all of the necessary parts from @Pauly, today I have set about cutting the van paneling in order to install this ductwork so that when I go down to Propex Leisure at the end of March, they can connect their LPG heater to the OEM ductwork, rather than using an ugly...

I thought I'd save myself a few quid and order my nu T6 w/o a parking heater and then get one fitted as a precursor to getting a full conversion. Now I'm not so sure that was a wise move - I have read here and there that there isn't room underneath a 4Motion for the heater and I don't fancy...

Hi All. Need some help. I am looking to get a Propex Heater installed in the Kombi using the OEM parts (outlet vents in B-pillar, recirc in the drivers door step) supplied by @Pauly. We have everything we need, however we have some uncertainty over the front step. So the question is:- Do you...

Hello. Can anyone give me a quote on supply & fit a heater. I’m located South Yorkshire so local would be good too. Cheers. Andrew
