THIS EPISODE IS ON AN INSTALL OF A DIESEL HEATER INTO OUR NEW VAN WE CUT MORE HOLES IN IT ENCLUDING ONE BIG ENOUGH TO PUT YOUR HAND THROUGH.
NIK SITS BACK AND GIVES THE ORDERS LOL
WHILE I CLIMB IN AND OUT OF THE VAN - UNDER IT SO MANY TIMES I FORGET.
THIS WAS A VERY INSTALL WE HAD NO INSTRUCTIONS SO WAS WINGING IT A BIT.
BUT WE GOT THERE IN THE END IT TOOK ABOUT 8 HOURS.
THAT ENCLUDED GOING TO GET THE DIESEL AND FILMING
ALL IN ALL IT COULD BE DONE IN ABOUT 4-5 HOURS WITH OUT FILMING.
AND BOY THIS THING PUMPS OUT SOME HEAT.
I BROUGHT IT FOR $100 AND ALL UP IT COST LESS THAN $150 FOR THE FINISH PRODUCT.
AN EASY JOB FOR THOSE WHO ARE HANDY.
SO GRAB A DRINK SIT BACK AND HAVE A FEW LAUGHS WHILE I CRAWL ALL OF THIS VAN TO INSTALL A DIESEL HEATER.
CHEERS DAVE AND NIK.

Great install. Just two minor points. Those tanks are not great in the sun, so the time may come where it cracks and needs to be replaced, just so you are prepared. Mine is in a diesel van, so I plumbed it into the van fuel tank, but I hear dingy fuel tanks or a jerry can are great as a replacement when the time comes. The second point is the exhaust should not have a low spot in the middle like it appeared to have, otherwise condensation can pool in there and block the exhaust which causes fuel mixture issues and cokeing inside the combustion chamber. You should try to make it so the exhaust could drain all the water out by gravity. It looks like it may end up acting like a P-trap. Such a neat install though. Well done.

@daveniksadventures2255 4 месяца назад

I have a cover over the tank now so it is protected And I have also re-rooted the air intake and exhaust since that install. Thanks for the advice. Thanks for watching and supporting our channel. Cheers Dave and Nik 👍🍻🇦🇺

Informative video Dave. We have put 3 diesel heaters in now. We run the fuel line through small rubber hose to protect from stones. Cover the clear fuel tank otherwise the sunlight will start growing algae in the diesel. We extended the breather in the opposite direction of the exhaust by 1 metre so you don't suck the exhaust in thru the breather. Also you need 2 vents. 1 for the hot air to come out and the other on the opposite side for air to come in after the air has gone with the bed closed

@daveniksadventures2255 7 месяцев назад

Yes I have got a vent for the air to get in once the bed is open and I did move the air intake to the opposite side so it’s not near the exhaust. I will touch on this in a later video. I was worried the video was getting to long and people would lose interest so I’ll touch on that other stuff once we review it later. Thanks for the feed back 😃 Cheers Dave and Nik 🇦🇺🍻👍

@@daveniksadventures2255 you put on such good videos. After watching your Install of the OGO we purchased one and installed it. Pinched your idea of the back cowling from old toilet. Looks very posh. Keep up the good work you 2

@desmonddawson4162 7 месяцев назад

Top job especially considering no instructions. Just one thing for longevity, I used a mesh screened pipe fitting with a reducer to replace air filter. Keeps the insects out of the combustion chamber which can cause problems later but again top job.

@daveniksadventures2255 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for that 😃 I really enjoy tinkering around with stuff. Cheers Dave and Nik 🇦🇺🍻👍

@ericdalcol2700 7 месяцев назад

I would run the exhaust from the heater in the opposite side to the air intake so as it doesn’t suck in exhaust fumes.

@daveniksadventures2255 7 месяцев назад

I did do that they both run in opposite directions now Cheers Dave and Nik 🇦🇺🍻👍

@Elizabeth-k5u2v 7 месяцев назад

Dave…an earlier comment that you ran the exhaust from heater in a different direction to the air intake so as not to suck in fumes. (1) Did you extend the exhaust pipe of the heater to get it away from the air intake thingy you installed in the toilet door? (2) Also, how is your pipe going that was said if you left it too long it would get condensation in it. The one that pokes into the pvc out the toilet door(3) what is the size of the PVC you purchased for putting through the door? We have some pipe here and wondered if it would be the correct size. Do you have an ID and OD measurement? Are you pleased with the OGO and how it works? Thanks Dave & Nik

@daveniksadventures2255 7 месяцев назад

No I didn’t extent the exhaust pipe on the diesel heater just put them as far apart as I could and it’s seems to be working fine. I cut the pipe and made sure it was in a down ward position so as the condensation can run out if it builds up. Not sure on the pipe size just took the hose to Bunnings and got the pipe to fit there. And the Ogo is going great no smell. Cheers Dave and Nik 🇦🇺🍻👍

@MattyH73 26 дней назад

Is there anything you would have done differently ? Are you happy with the install ?

@daveniksadventures2255 26 дней назад

Yes happy with it and how it is performing. If I was to do it again I'd still do it the same way. Cheers Dave and Nik 👍🍻🇦🇺🍩

@jballtamperingozzyockr2455 7 месяцев назад

yeah great video guys. just one question what was the brand . i know it was chinese. cheers

@daveniksadventures2255 7 месяцев назад

Not sure 🤔 I got it off a bloke who didn’t fit it to his van before he sold it. And there wasn’t a instruction book with it. But they all look the same and wire up the same so I think it doesn’t matter on brand or price they are all a much of a muchness’s. Cheers Dave and Nik 🇦🇺🍻👍

Hi Dave and Nik! We just started following your channel. Great job installing the new loo! We're watching the Cape York trip and I'm drooling over Dave's cooking. 😋 Can I ask if you are a chef by trade? We're from Baldivis and thinking about a caravan....🤔 Can't make up our minds. Did like the Urban 👍 Also the new Evolve. Looking forward to more videos. Cheers, Rikki and Keith

@DG_Raceway Месяц назад

How is the heater holding up Dave? About to fit mine, is it holding well enough with the screws in the floor or would you recommend bolts?

@daveniksadventures2255 Месяц назад

I haven't had any drama with it It if I had a honeycomb floor I would use nuts and bolts because screws won't grab onto that floor type very well. Cheers Dave and Nik 👍🍻🇦🇺🍩
