## Features

- HEAT WITHOUT IDLING YOUR ENGINE — Warm your truck cab, RV, camper van or boat cabin on cold mornings without running the engine. This 5,000W / 16,500 BTU diesel air heater sips just 0.15–0.47 L of diesel per hour, cutting the fuel you'd waste idling and the engine wear that comes with it.
- STARTS WHERE CHEAP HEATERS QUIT — Rated to -40°F / -40°C. The EasyStart Pro controller reads barometric pressure and auto-corrects the fuel-air mix up to 11,483 ft (3,500 m), so it lights reliably in deep cold and at altitude where budget units stall, soot up or fail to start. No extra altitude kit needed.
- PREMIUM PARTS THAT JUSTIFY THE PRICE — A Japanese silicon nitride ceramic ignition plug that passes 1,100°C (2,012°F) within 60 seconds of power-on, a German-made A-grade thermostat sensor, a 2520 stainless-steel combustion chamber and a die-cast aluminum heat exchanger that seals combustion gases away from the air you breathe. Flame-retardant wiring and a burner engineered for 8+ years of service — this is a heater built for seasons, not one winter.
- QUIET, CLEAN, FULL CONTROL — An upgraded exhaust muffler and NVH-tuned design keep it running low and smooth, and a re-engineered combustion chamber runs with no visible soot. The LCD monitor plus wireless remote let you set temperature and timer from your bunk or driver's seat. The nylon-66 housing is RoHS-certified and won't off-gas toxins.
- EVERYTHING IN THE BOX, PLUG-AND-PLAY — Ships complete: heater, LCD controller, wireless remote, fuel pump, exhaust muffler, 4.5 m flame-retardant harness, air ducting and full mounting hardware. Just tap the fuel line into your diesel tank and go. FCC, CE and RoHS compliant, backed by a 12-month VVKB warranty and a support team that typically replies within about 10 hours.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it safe to sleep with a diesel heater running?**
A: Combustion is sealed off from cabin air and the exhaust vents outside the vehicle, so the two never mix. Route the exhaust so it cannot be drawn back in, and still fit a CO alarm. Any fuel burning appliance in a small space deserves one.

**Q: Is 5 kW too much heat for a small van?**
A: Often yes. In a small van or a single berth, a 5 kW unit short cycles on low, and repeated light load running builds carbon. Our 2.5 kW Apollo V1 fits small spaces better. Choose this V2 for a truck sleeper, a large RV or a boat cabin.

**Q: How much battery power does it use?**
A: About 8 A at 12 V during the two to three minute glow plug start, then roughly 1 A to 2 A while running. Wire it to a house or leisure battery rather than your starting battery, so a long night of heat never leaves you unable to crank.

**Q: Will it run on winter diesel without gelling?**
A: The heater burns whatever is in your tank, so cold weather diesel rules still apply. Use a winter blend or an anti gel additive below freezing, keep the fuel filter clean, and route the fuel line away from the coldest airflow under the vehicle.

**Q: How hard is the install?**
A: Most owners fit it themselves in an afternoon. You cut one mounting hole, drop the unit in, run the exhaust and intake outside, mount the pump, and tap the fuel line into the diesel tank. Everything else is in the box. Wire it to a switched supply.
