Anybody know of a good source for used take-off heaters? The new ones are very expensive.
I'm talking about the hot-air and the hot-water units. They tie into the exisiting diesel tank and will heat a passenger area, truck sleeper cab, boat bunks, or heat the engine block for cold-starting. I know the Canadian military used them years ago, and I now see Ford offers them as an option in new pickup trucks.
I also see that that are getting popular in sleeper-cabs in big-rigs so somebody can have heat all night without the engine idling.
Espar is one company. Webasto another. They make in gasoline or diesel versions. The gasoline heaters used to be common in air-cooled Volksagen cars.
I have a small diesel 4WD motor home and I'm looking for a small diesel fired heater to tie into the 40 gallon diesel tank it already has. I'm also cheap and will not spend $2500 for a new heater.
