fitting an eberspacher without drilling holes
I'm looking to fit a 2.2kw eberspacher in the living area of the cab is there anywhere I can run the exhaust pipe out through without having to drill a hole into the floorplan or side. Ideally I'd like to be able to make this a portable unit that I could just lift out and re-fit with minimum fuss. Also as it's from an ex-BT van will it have the 1hour cut out on it there is a 7 day digital timer coming with it and just how hot will it get suitable for all year use in the van?

Re: fitting an eberspacher without drilling holes
As it's from an ex-BT van, is this the water heating ebber designed to pre-heat the engines cooling system or a hot air blower system?

Re: fitting an eberspacher without drilling holes
If it's a D2 Airtronic I have one fitted in my van, under the R & R bed. Don't know how you could fix it without drilling any holes in your van.If you mount it under your van then you'd need to drill holes to get the hot air in.I've seen them mounted under the glovebox, behind the rear light and under the bed but where ever you mount it I can't see how you can do I without drilling some holes.
I think there a diagram in the Wiki which shows how to remove the 1 hour times if yours has one fitted.
As for hot hot they get, I've used mine when it's been -8 outside and still been warm in the van. For normal use I set the rheostat between 1 and 2 (out of 4) and that keeps the van at a nice comfortable temperature
