Diesel heater
Has anybody installed a diesel heater in there TC. Would like to install where original duroFlame heater is. All the youTube videos are in Vans in random locations.
Forum Discussion
- I've looked at YT but all are install in van, want to see in use in TC. Don't want to install tank on the outside and prefer to install in exsiting heater space where current Duro Flame is. If that can't be done I'll stick with the Duro as I don't use heater that much. My main reason for wanting is battery use, from what I understand it uses very little power.

I think for TC external installation would be the best, unless you have empty generator compartment.
The flat tank can be mounted anywhere and 1 gallon of diesel last for a long time.
Read reviews on Sprinter forum and they do require cleaning from time to time, so not as maintenance-free like propane furnaces.
Ive heard that burning bit of kerosene once a while cleans it well.
Cant confirm tho,never had problems with my Espar yet.- I am in process of installing 1 in my Sprinter van.
