Any fitted one ...
Don't want one of the cheapo ones..Fitted one a few moths ago and never looked back
Fuel hose direct into van diesel tank
There are a lot of Chinese ones as well for as little as £75 complete kit.
The company that is fitting only fit autoterm units ..From direct experience I'd go Hcalory with thermostatic control every time ...
Better quality than anything else Chinese diesel heater wise I've come accross ...
And the App/bluetooth/thermostat functions are actually beyonw eberspacher in my 30 plus years experience of diesel heaters ...
Only the ones with this controller have full thermostat functionality .

They are better than 'most' Chinese clones ....The company that is fitting only fit autoterm units ..
Thanks we are looking at having autoterm comfort control fitted to..They are better than 'most' Chinese clones ....
Though I'd check it has a functioning thermostat before I went ahead ...
Frankly and IMHO any diesel heater without a working thermostat isn't worth bothering with ...
From a comfort/power/electrical consumptionpoint of view
I have been looking for one with this controller with no luck so far, all seem to be the four button type.From direct experience I'd go Hcalory with thermostatic control every time ...

This looks almost identical and appears to have the same functionality ....
The 5/8kw versions are a beast though if your tight for space .

If it is of any interest, looking at the dimensions quoted, the heater WOULD physically fit I believe?Looks good, a shame about the size under the drivers seat in my ducato would be my only choice for fitting and it’s a bit to big.

I will do some careful measuring including underneath to see what can be done.If it is of any interest, looking at the dimensions quoted, the heater WOULD physically fit I believe?
bear with me here .... I made up a mockup of a Victron 2000VA Inverter - size 485 Long x 219 Wide x 125 mm High - from a cardboard box to see if it would fit in under a Ducato drivers seat - and it would JUST fit in the seat base including front and rear flap covers.
Taking those dimensions into account, the heater is smaller length and width, and the height is only just a little more (there is around 180mm height available under a Ducato seat).

would depend where the inlet and outlet pipes could go under the floor as well, so careful measuring would be needed but it is not an automatic "can't be done" though.![]()
I am sure they did as well, but I see on there eBay store hcalory uk most of the heaters are branded Kroak unless this is a reseller.The Hcalory 5~8kw is the same ....

I considered swapping the eberspacher I fitted after removing the guts of the gas fire for the Hcalory as to be honest the functionality of the Hcalory is IMHO superior to the eberspacher ....
However no chance it will fit lol ....
I'm sure Hcalory did do do a 2kw version but struggling to find it at the moment
Possibly ....I am sure they did as well, but I see on there eBay store hcalory uk most of the heaters are branded Kroak unless this is a reseller.
Kroak is a fictional character from the Warhammer Fantasy universe.I am sure they did as well, but I see on there eBay store hcalory uk most of the heaters are branded Kroak unless this is a reseller.
Marymary had one fitted at the place near Overton last year. Has been pleased with it so far.Any fitted one ...
That’s going to be hard to find if that’s the companies name.Apparently Kroak is the parent company of Hcalory.
