    Hi Carol. I think you have done a wonderful job with Netti. I have a Renault traffic converted into a motorhome and I have fitted a diesel heater, I would say that it warms the van really quickly the only problem with it is that you hear a dull ticking sound but I think it outweighs the inconvenience of the van being cold. Good luck with your venture’s and best wishes. Chris.

    Chinese diesel heater, fit a 2 or a 5kw in there Carol, when fitting swap to an ultra silent pump for about a tenner. Pump under the van diesel heater under a seat or bed area… I can’t hear ours at all. We’re on our second vehicle with one now and the first was still going strong at almost 6yrs old. The pump makes a slight ticking sound when new but quietens down after being use a few hours.

    I think it's absolutely right that you wouldn't be able to get anything like Netty for £3500 🙌 I think she looks fab, but it comes down to how you feel about her...and I'm glad you are excited again, as I know you'll have wonderful adventures in her 🙏😍
    Just like to say that I'm always impressed by your renovation skills...how you take anything on and always do such a fantastic job 👏 if I had (or get 😁) a camper/mini-caravan that needed some renovation love, I'd definitely be looking at hiring you Carol 🙏😁👏
    Enjoy the rest of your weekend Carol 🤗 🤗

    Good evening.
    No need to worry about the fiddly switch on the light. Leave it turned on and cut the feed to it from the battery. Put a switch in wherever it is convenient and safe. It's a ten minute job......or an hour in female time.
    Take care ❤

    For the heater... have you not seen the 5 litre metal bucket? fill with sand, and a copper strip loop on the inside (sort of like a handle shape) ... then 2 tea lights under the copper strip. That little thing seems to throw some heat out.
    And no humming😊

    Nice one Carol. Great vlog. I was shouting at my screen saying dont put the lights up paint first and yay you did that. well done. Im thinking of getting my first campervan and find the cost of a nearly new one crazy money and so many vlogs i watch are from ppl who have new or nearly new campervans with endless issues on them. So in total agreement you have invested rwell with purchase 12 months mot and internal refurb under £3.5 k. Btw another you tube channel Alex the Cameraman who you may know also purchased a 1989 Talbot campervan like yours. He is doing major refurb on his in which one recent episode he shows how easy it was to supply a new diesel heater. Perhaps look him up you may be able to exchange thoughts and ideas. Till the next one....

    Well done and well said old need not mean expensive 😊. Diesel heaters can be noisy but it depends on the make and where its fitted. If it can be under slung and fueled from the Diesel tank you won't notice it.Other options are gas fire if you have it or as you said a log burner if you have storage for the wood as it's bulky.

    Hi nice videos …. Don’t take any notice of people saying no parts for your van … all engine parts and service parts are still readily available…. Everything is Peugeot…. There is a camper exactly the same as your getting done up and he has no problems getting new parts from Europe parts or GSF car parts …… the smoking you get on startup is also not a problem …. You might also see a little lack of power going up hills and both these problems are pump timing an easy fix and as far as the cost of your camper you got a very good deal ….. at this point with mot your looking at £4k to £6k

    At £3,400 you have got yourself a bargain there. Some people pay that for just 1 holiday whereas you have potentially got a few years holiday with Nessie (I hope I got the name right?).

      @ In answer to your question, I did fit the diesel heater into my van and it was pretty easy. What I would suggest, is follow the instructions to be safe because the exhaust needs to be outside of your vehicle and not touching any surfaces because it does get hot. There are quite a few videos on TH-cam that you could watch.. as I said in my previous message, you do hear a slight taking when it is running but it is certainly no louder than a log burner

    Hello diesel heaters do make a noise. It can range from a ticking to a dull knocking sound. I can't stand a watch or clock ticking, But I soon got used to the diesel heater. It actually has its benefits I'm so used to the sound that I even know when it's running out of fuel. I have a 2kw heater fitted Chinese to my van. Van is around the size of yours 15 ft head to toe. It's 2c outside and 17c inside running at it lowest setting. They are a dry heat unlike gas that are damp. Damp being no good. Wood burning are also dry running BUT it's hard to find places to fire them up. I'm currently broken down waiting for a fuel pump, no way could I use a wood burning stove. Diesel yea magnificent. Found a pump without much of a problem. Had a custom fitted engine fitted, engine is 38 years old van is 43 years old. Parts are available. It seems to be down to algorithms context of the search pattern. Oh by the way if you are interested in knowing the ins and outs of diesel heating system. Look up John mck 47 TH-cam he is an engineer he knows the good bad and ugly side of them. In most part they are very very good. Safe and reliable parts are cheap as chips. Safe travelling

    Its very quiet once the van is at the set temperature, at 18 degrees ticking over you can barely hear it and it costs next to nothing to run.
