About this deal

Diesel heater fuel is also very hard to ignite meaning it is extremely unlikely to pose a fire hazard within your campervan unlike other alternatives such as gas. Most diesel heaters will actually fit a Transporter. They are available in different sizes and KW outputs and all of the ones reviewed here are suitable. If the wiring is ran too close to the generated heat it can result in a short circuit and a damaged circuit board. Take your time with the install and protect the wires. On the lowest setting you can expect to reach 20-21 degreees inside the van very rapidly. It is good practice to run them occasionally on full heat to prevent carbon build up (which can cause running issues)

Katie, this is a great source of advice. Unfortunately, the very popular Maxspeedingrod 2kw appears to be sold out. Webasto are a long established UK based diesel heater manufacturer and have been operating since 1901. Webasto diesel heaters have a similar high quality reputation to the German manufacturer Eberspacher. Fitting a diesel heater is especially common in the UK where nights can be cold even in the summer months.Diesel heaters are seen to be one of the safest forms of heating in a campervan providing they are installed correctly with the correct vents in place. Diesel heaters also usually come with a safety cut off to prevent them overheating.

On the lowest setting these heaters use around 0.2L of diesel per hour – with a 10L tank that gives them running time of between 20 and 50 hours on a tank. The none plumbed variety (that are also much cheaper) are designed to be stand alone with their own diesel tank. Electric fan heaters are also a common option however usually require an electric hook up which may not be an option depending on where you are camping.

There are two types of diesel heater in the UK, plumbed and none plumbed (we will review both options). Many of the cheaper Chinese diesel heaters are designed to be stand alone and have their own built in diesel tank.
