Customer Reviews for 12V 8KW Diesel Air Heater for RV Motorhome Trailer Trucks Boats 8kW + LCD Switch

As a diesel heater, its core function—producing heat—is satisfactory. The noise level is also within a reasonable range. However, the ergonomic design is quite average, or below average. The overall layout gives the impression that ease of use and troubleshooting were not major priorities during the design process. Both the air intake and exhaust ports are located on the bottom of the unit and positioned very close to each other. Ideally, these should be placed farther apart, because if the exhaust pipe joint leaks, exhaust gases can easily be drawn back into the combustion chamber. The base of the heater also sits very close to the ground, which means the unit must be mounted on a raised platform. Otherwise the intake and exhaust pipes will bend due to insufficient clearance, potentially triggering the overheating protection. Accessing the screws that secure the intake and exhaust pipes is also inconvenient. When facing the heater, the display is on the front while the screw access is on the left side, in a very narrow space. A screwdriver with an extension is almost required, and without the right tool this simple installation step becomes unnecessarily difficult. The fuel cap is located on the right side, while both the display and the hot air outlet are on the front. In practical installations—such as mounting the heater at the rear of a vehicle—this layout creates trade-offs. Pointing the hot air outlet forward avoids bending the air duct 180 degrees (which can trigger overheating protection), but doing so may leave the display blocked by seats and difficult to access. Finally, when the overheating protection alarm triggers, the heater provides no additional diagnostic information. Troubleshooting becomes a process of trial and error, repeatedly adjusting the intake, exhaust, or hot air ducting. As mentioned earlier, even accessing those components is already inconvenient due to the physical layout of the unit. What makes this particularly disappointing is that many of these problems could be greatly reduced with small design changes. Yet the manufacturer appears not to have addressed them, neither in older models nor in newer ones. This does not seem to be a matter of technical limitations; rather, it suggests that ergonomics, usability, and maintainability were simply being ignored during the design process.

Un excellent appareil qui fonctionne bien… à un détail près… Quand je veux changer L'unité de mesure reste la même, du Fahrenheit au Celsius .. Il reste bloqué En Fahrenheit

Virker veldig bra. fornøyd 👍

There was some damage to the heater in Shipping Vevor customer service is great to work with. Heater works great

I've been using that heater for 4 months now to heat my workshop here in the middle of Saskatchewan. It's working really well. Here it is cold! So it was easy to set them up, but it would be way nicer to have a mounting bracket for them because you have to mount them on the wall. I had to build one by myself. The other needs would be a instaled thermosthat, so you can program a temperature, and the heater would be able to heat til the temperature is reached, shut of and start heating later one again by itself. These are simple things that the manufacturer should be able to integrate. But I mean, the price is pretty good, so you can not expect to get everything. But maybe ....... At the end, I'm really happy with that heater. He passed the test, and I will install them in our RV this spring. :]

Sehr gutes Produkt. Leistungsstark und guter Bedienkomfort. Heizung hatte leider nach 14Tagen einen elektronischen Defekt. Relamationsbearbeitung und kostenlose Nachlieferung hat super und schnell funktioniert. Gene wieder. Viele Grüße Matthias Soukal

good!

Ble dyrere da de ikke opplyste om toll. Er et minus. Burde vært inkluderende.

Dobra cena i jakość jest ok

Fungerer greit, varmer godt og bruker lite diesel. Men får ikke bort den snakkesalige damen som åpner kjeften og går på repit hver gang den har blitt slått av...har fulgt bruksanvisningen for det men hjelper ikke, får den ikke bort. Works well, heats well and uses little diesel. But can't get rid of the talkative lady who opens her mouth and goes on repeat every time it's turned off...I've followed the instructions for it but it doesn't help, can't get rid of it.
