This is just a quick video on the heating in our 1990 B644 Hymer. The heater is a Truma SL5002. It pumps out about 6kw which is quite impressive and with the blown heating can het up the motorhome very quickly.
There is also a short description of how to use the heater. Not the most complicated heater to operate but still good to know.

Many thanks for the video. I have a 1989 b694 and one of the many jobs I need to do is to get the heating working.

@classicmotorhomeowner4055 5 лет назад

Brilliant, a 1989 b694. That will keep you busy. Does the b694 have two heaters? If I remember correctly they are quite large. Thanks for the comment Sean.

@@classicmotorhomeowner4055 I think it had a second heater but it was removed when I got it. The one left is the same as yours. It's at the garage at the moment getting a service as I need to get the mot then I'm going to try and find someone in the uk that will work on the gas for me (I have a daughter living in Nottingham that I want to visit).

Try the classic Hymer group on Facebook, if you are not already a member. They should be able to point you in the direction of a good gas engineer any where in the UK.

I've got the same campervan. Heater works fine but a big plus was to isolate everything under the main bed in the back. I've placed isolation on the floor and over the isolation i've placed carpet. If you are thinking to go on a trip this helps a lot with the colder times! :-)

@classicmotorhomeowner4055 4 года назад

Great idea. Thanks

@malcolmhiggs7235 Год назад

How do you turn it off?

@MrPaully69 Год назад

Lol that's my problem ATM lol

@ogreunderbridge5204 4 года назад

Thanks, finally I know what that weird alternate setting on the fan controller is ment for :D. If you make videos of good maintenance and repairs to it, that would be much appreciated

@classicmotorhomeowner4055 4 года назад

Thanks. Glad it's useful. Will try and make some maintenance vids. Always like a challenge 👍

Hi. My friend has the same heater. It stays lit for 2 or 3 minutes then cuts out. Any suggestions? Thanks

@classicmotorhomeowner4055 Год назад

Best thing to do is to get it serviced.

@sarahdixon3530 3 года назад

How is it on gas guzzling? We're renovating a hymer 694 that's been gutted so looking for a fuel efficient heating system. In our C524 the gas air heating system uses too much gas for it to be on for very long.

@classicmotorhomeowner4055 3 года назад

Yup. It does love the gas. A lot of people are moving to eberspacher heaters. These run on diesel and can pump out the heat. They basically blow out hot air so should be easy to integrate into the camper. There are chinese copies available for not a lot of money and are highly rated. Have been toying with this idea for a while. While the gas heater works I will keep on using it for now.

@jonathanbengtsson7542 Год назад

Guess this is a stupid question: but if I understand it correctly it only works with liquid-gas to ignite and keep it going - not with electricity power? I’ve just bought a caravan with this heater in it. But my wife is quit nervous about liquid-gas 🤪

@classicmotorhomeowner4055 Год назад

Ours has an electric igniter. Once lit it will burn the gas in the same way as a gas hob would. The gas is only liquid in the bottle, the gas regulator allows the gas to come out at the pressure of the regulator - 50mbar in my case. Modern gas systems are 30mbar.

My electric ignition isnt working tonight while we are in the motorhome is there a fuse to check to get it work cant remember??

@agibsonallan 2 года назад

the big benefit of this type of heater is when you get to temp you can turn off the fan so not using 12v and at a lower setting it keep the van nice and warm

@classicmotorhomeowner4055 2 года назад

Good point 👍

@felixmcquillan7683 3 года назад

Can that heater run all night and if it shuts down does it restart its self?

@classicmotorhomeowner4055 3 года назад

I have never had it on all night. But I know some people who use it on a low setting and seems to work for them. It can restart itself if the pilot light goes out. Hope this helps 👍
