    you are the first person i have seen take air inlet from inside the house, instead of preheating cold air, been saying this for ages, i bet the metal cabinet acts like a heat store also. and its a dry heat.. these things could prevent so many damp problems many homes have had for years!, one benefit of pulling in outside air, is that it will put the house, in positive pressure, and therefore reducing draughts.. im sure a clever person could build a heat exchanger from the exhaust and pre heat inlet air.. al good stuff.

    • @CarJunkeez
      @CarJunkeez  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yea your right mate it totally makes sense to recycle the air to increase the temperature even more and works well, yea the cabinet does soak a little heat and it’s a perfect little corner for the heater.
      I was looking into doing the mod that people do with an old EGR cooler on the exhaust to drive a little radiator in my kitchen but I may build an air to air box over the exhaust and use a fan to pump the hot air into my kitchen and that way I’d get the positive air pressure too 👍 yes I agree more houses should have them even just to stop the damp related issues. Cheers 👍👍

      My heater is outside in a wooden cabinet I’ve built and so draws cold fresh air from outside. Since installing it a week ago I’ve noticed I get no condensation on any of my inside windows. Previously my kitchen and bathroom windows were always streaming with water. Alongside a temperature gauge I have is a moisture content reading which now reads around 40 to 50% whereas before it was usually around 70%.

    Nicely done, I think as gas prices hike even more next year in the UK these heaters will become even more popular than ever even in modern well insulated homes like ours, our 32 Kw gas boiler is consuming £1.00 an hour in these freezing temps when the nights get down to minus 7 degrees C just to maintain around 17 degrees C indoors, our outside wall is at a constant 4 degrees C internally, even with cavity wall insulation, so I decided to install a diesel heater in a custom made box outside our home drawing internal air from our kitchen and blowing warm air into the living room.
    my calculations are that it is costing around 7 to 10 pence per hour to run, a massive improvement on runing a gas boiler, I wish we had done this years ago. gas currently is working out at £60 a week on prepay with no debt on the meter running a diesel heater £20 a week on diesel is a no brainer. I had to extend the cables a little bit and Im running the set up on a 75 amp battery.
    in case of power cuts that we have been promised in the UK in January and February, im also runing a 20 amp battery charger when the unit is running so when the power fails the battery can cope with the shutdown procedure as it is quite well known that if the power supply fails the heater fan cant go through the shut down cooling process and it can fry the electronics inside the heater. some have proved this wrong with one attempt at complete shutdown on the mains supply but I fear that if it happens once to often it will fry the electronics eventually and a reasonably priced 75 Amp battery isn't very expensive to replace from eBay.

      Brilliant mate, sounds like you’ve got a good setup and saving you some money there. Yes I have central heating too on LPG and I get the 47kg bottles and they only last a week if I’m lucky in these temperatures and they are so expensive now. Yea there’s no need to have these heaters on high but work really well on low for keeping the temperature bearable and you can just boost it with other means like a coal burner just to be compatible when at home. 😁 cheers 👍👍

    I fitted one two weeks ago after paying £125 for 47kg of LPG. My red is a £1/litre from the farm, its costing me £3 a day to run which is half the cost of LPG. Nice installation you have there, my air supply is from my big workshop, no sense in dragging in freezing air.

    Great job you did here, having a massive diesel tank is key. At the prices you mentioned it is a cozy and warm winter for less than having it heated on gas. In some respect you are basically on the Arctic, Survival is immenent. I would create a double (sealed room) door entrance so you can close one before opening the other. A thermostat to regulate the control of your diesel pump would be a nice ad-on. Is that even possible? Make sure you have a 12v battery ready (tricle charged) to run the heater if a power outage or some other disturbance is bothering you.

    If your temperatures outside go below freezing then kerosene is your best bet however a gallon of kerosene has 112,000 BTUs gallon fuel oil or what you call heating oil has 144,000 BTUs so you’re much better off to use fuel oil one it’s cheaper than kerosene and to the heat output is greater than kerosene.

      The fan and fuel pump combo take 18-44 watts depending on the speed. The startup draws about 120 total watts because it uses a ceramic glow plug to heat the oil to the point of combustion. If the heater is powered up then adjusted to the lowest setting and allowed to just tick away and never turn off, you're looking at about 20 watts.
