Diesel Heaters in Caravans
A Diesel heater is a compact system used in caravans to heat the interior. It draws in outside air, heats it through combustion, and releases warm air inside. Diesel heaters are efficient, using minimal fuel and power, and often run on the same diesel as your tow vehicle, making them cost-effective and convenient.
Diesel heaters are a popular choice for caravans due to several key benefits:
Efficiency: They use less than a litre of diesel over eight hours.
Reliability: They deliver consistent heat, even in freezing temperatures, ideal for winter camping.
Low Power Consumption: They draw minimal power, making them perfect for off-grid use.
Compact Design: Small and easy to install out of sight, saving space.
