  • A complete explanation on why and how we installed a water heater in our overland truck. Hot water system that takes up no space in our Land Rover Defender camper build. It's also an engine pre-heater for winter season.
    We didn't go for the Webasto Thermotop Evo5 and chose the Eberspaecher Hydronic S3 D5E because of a very important feature.

    Hi this is very interesting. We have a 2.4 TDCi too and are planning an overland conversion over the next few years. Could you please add details about the actual parts used and the connections ? @thebluelandy used just the coolant system in their TD5 without using a preheater, using the engine block’s residual heat through a heat exchanger, which I think is a good idea too if you don’t need a preheater. I’d like to understand how the switching between preheating and water heating works
    Another great video 👍

    Ya with a custom setup it’s always good to be apart of the build. You’ll know the parts that most likely will have a problem we’re as a garage won’t have any idea. It is a cool idea. I’d love to see this beast when it’s done.

    You can get a hydronic heater (basically a radiator with a fan) the runs with your water heater set up & do away with the diesel heater. I watch a channel called Dares Drives a while ago, where he built his van as a full hydronic heating & hot water system.

      It's those details that make the difference when out there. Connecting to the cabine heater system is also a nice option to heat the interior when engine is off.

      @@offtrackfamily Mines a pick up Puma so cabin warms up quickly but would be even faster with a engine pre heater. The main idea is to preserve engine though.
