Product Information

The imported Chinese diesel heater however do offer a very cheap solution to heating your transporter in the UK and offer a very nice alternative to the expensive UK and German models that are a little bit more of a permanent addition to your vehicle. It is a slightly dearer product compared to the other imported heaters but does still offer good value for money. Webasto are a long established UK based diesel heater manufacturer and have been operating since 1901. The cost of the products high high but again, you are getting a well supported, well established, tried and tested reliable diesel heater for your Transporter. With the Ambienceo being 2kW you will probably never have to raise the temperature above its lowest setting in a Transporter (which is why |I do not recommend the 5kW).

There are two types of diesel heater in the UK, plumbed and none plumbed (we will review both options). Diesel heaters are also known as diesel night heaters, they are a common accessory frequently fitted to all models of the VW Transporter including the T4, T5 and T6 as well as many other uses in the UK such as trucks and boats for overnight comfort. If you want the highest quality diesel heater and have the budget for it then the Eberspächer Airtronic is by far the best one to go for and is the option that you will see most commonly installed on high quality Transporter conversions.My name is Katie and I am a life long fan of VW Transporters of all years… I currently drive around in a red VW T4 that I am slowly but surely restoring to its original rust free glory. The plumbed diesel heaters are harder to fit and require a few hours to install correctly, they are more of a permanent solution to heating your vehicle. The heater comes as a full kit including a small diesel tank which makes it appealing to those that do not want to connect a heater into their main diesel tank.

It pays to get these options installed professionally if your budget allows and ideally installed at the same time as you carry out the conversion. The Webasto Air top heaters are frequently used in high specification conversions and offer a fantastic option to those with a higher budget. On this site I will cover all common topics that I have seen discussed over the years and make it freely accessible to like minded VW fans all in one place! The design is especially appealing and will look smart inside any larger sized vehicle (recommend Crafter or above). 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.Webasto diesel heaters have a similar high quality reputation to the German manufacturer Eberspacher.

Thanks to it’s outstanding value and mostly positive reviews, this is one of the best diesel heater currently available in the UK. These are much easier to install than the more expensive plumbed variety however it is important that you install the vent correctly to avoid intoxication from carbon monoxide by-products. 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. Many of the cheaper Chinese diesel heaters are designed to be stand alone and have their own built in diesel tank.We also share information about your use of our site with our social media, advertising and analytics partners. Heaters can be mounted under the vehicle using a mounting bracket or alternatively inside the vehicle (usually under the seats but this is optional if you have space). Like most owners, I carry out most of the maintenance myself with a little helping hand occasionally!
