Finally got around to finishing up my "ducting" and gear dryer. Seems like it will work very well. I just need a few more 2" caps to finish it off.

does anyone install the all in one heaters on the floor of their trailer with the intake and exhaust going out the bottom of your trailer?
the trailer is all done except for the heater now and just looking at best way to install it. Was going to install it in the V nose of the trailer on the floor so it just points in between the two sleds

Ya, I think several guys on this thread have done that, just go back a few pages and should see some examples.

why not its not like the average trailer is air tight most propane furnace on sled trailers use inside air intake but should have roof vents if used for sleeping in

There’s two different “inlets”…
Think he was talking about the air used for combustion, not the air warming the trailer…

Mines mounted to the floor with intake and exhaust tucked into between the frame . Buddy of mine has installed about 50 of them and says they perform better with fresh air intake .

Yup, works awesome. I have a satellite PVR receiver that I don't use anymore(since I stream all my tv now) But the receiver has a couple of thousand hours of TV and movies in it so it's mounted just over the TV and if I'm on a long trip to Az, I can relax and watch some TV on my way. It's great!

I added these thermal spiral things to to my exhaust pipe to squeeze a bit more heat out of it seems to work and cheap enough

Great idea. That pipe gets pretty hot.

That's awesome! Spray foam after that?
On some stuff I can't believe they can get it over here so cheap and so fast I think the fastest was like 3 days. Other stuff I had forgot I ordered it until it shows up.

Could somebody share a link to where they purchased one of the recommended diesel heaters? There seem to be a lot of them out there and some are probably better than others!
Thanks!
Thanks!
