More pics.
Heater is 15,000 BTU Multifuel.
Fuel line taps right into tank, as this heater has it's own fuel pump.
T Stat was connected wit Romex, & screwed to front wall.
Exhaust goes down thru bed floor with galvanized pipe. 1" or 1 1.25 ", & straight radiator-type hose comes out above the pioneer rack as a "tail pipe".
Air-in elbow was attached to hole cut in front flap, & has a diverter in the flex line to switch from outside to inside air.
Any questions, just ask!

I got dizzy taking them.
After cutting firewood in the 85° heat all day yesterday, & the 92° heat today, I had to unload the truck to get the pictures.
Shower, beer, supper, bed are next.

Hey Eric,

What "brand" of heater is it?

A driver of mine, is also a local volunteer fire dept. chief.
Is looking for a diesel heater system.

Trying to figure out how to install one.
That runs off of his diesel trucks fuel tank.
Even when the truck is parked, and turned off.
It would be on the bed of a F350, with insulated bed & topper, h20 tank & hoses.
He is looking at buying a Wabasco system.

Personally, I have my doubts that it will keep 200 gal. of water from freezing at -35-65 below. And NOT, constantly drain the batteries.

But, I have been wrong before.:roll:

Any thoughts or info, would be greatly appreciated. :idea:
