Indeed. I’ve got an external temp sensor on the passenger B-pillar. Without one, as you say, it’ll sense the temp just on the inlet (on ones that can vary the heat output).
This is exactly why I was thinking of underslung onto the existing lines, but doesn't seem to be that popular.
Happy to fit a monoxide alarm and frankly i think Ill do that regardless once the threat rises form post curry sleeping.. Would you take a link from the fuel tank and under-sling (noting temp sensor and fuel cut off solenoid) or have separate tank? Cost is always an object but when you're looking at this price bracket of 500 a few extra here for something top notch is worth it. Quick search reveals nearly double price... hmmmm more thinking needed.
Any chance of being cheeky and asking to see the under slung LPG tank? I could easily fit under the rock and roll bed but exploring options.
Coming round to the Ebers option snotty, just another question have you go this running off your petrol tank or a separate tank? Do you also think i could undersling this model?
Seen a few underslung Ebers .. in a protective box / cage but some without.. but it will need a remote temp sensor in the cab if on a thermostat or it will always be on on a cold day Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
The pump supply is tee-d off the fuel tank after the fuel filter (but before any cutoff valve). Got a whole tank of fuel at the back - might as well use it... You might have to go for a Webasto, as Ebers don't seem to do petrol models these days. Mine's an early 2000s model, so not absolute latest & greatest, but runs at four speeds and doesn't make a racket when it's just maintaining temp. They can be underslung, but they're not waterproof. Should be ok under a belly pan, tho'. I have my doubts as to whether stock ducting can withstand the heat when they're running at full blast. As @Deefer66 says, you'll likely need an remote temp sensor in the van if the heater's mounted under the floor.
The Webastos are really designed like all heaters to sit with fuel, inlet and exhaust combustion air going outside through a body panel with the heater inside the vehicle. The control PCB in my 1998 Airtop 2000D is conformally coated so it has not rotted away after 22 years in a locker on a boat, but the connectors arent particularly waterproof under the covers. It is fitted up high so no water can splash it, but it shares space with damp ropes.
