      He's also humble man, thats why we like him! Learning about that lifestyle is entertaining but also IMO a need as times are looking rough. I'm 4 months out from doing the van life myself here in CO, prepped the supplies and van upgrades over a 3 year time span! Foresty, temps here suck but nothing like Canada. I like your style and love your van and am very happy you were able to move into that bad boy, I cant imagine the thrill you had the first week!

    In the UK, with a central heating setup (gas boiler), the air intake is an inner pipe that is surrounded by a larger outer exhaust pipe. Basically air is drawn in and pre-heated by the exhaust gas - simple heat exchanger.
    You could try constructing or "welding" a simple exhaust heat exchanger.

    Don't put the intake inside, cold air has more oxigen then hot air. It should burn better with cold air. Also never connect a pipe that goes to the combustion chamber, to the inside of your van. You never know what could happen wile you sleep. If the heater fan stops working, fumes come out of the intake

      @jeremywylie2936 3 года назад +1

      The diesel heaters have a in and exhaust out for the burn chamber. They are through his floor to outside. They also have a intake air in and heated air out. Air in at one end of plastic case. Heat out the other. The two parts are not connected in any way. So having it recirculate in and out of main is better them sucking cooler air from under bed

    • @frspp
      @frspp 3 года назад

      Yup I think there should anyways be a fresh air intake as companion for roof fan which is exhaust. Fresh air intake through the heater when it is off must be quite little.
      Anyways interesting find that the output is same no matter if it taking cold air out or recirculating inside air. Heater must use more fuel and power to make cold air warm.

    2:22 the Majesty shared with all viewing this perspective...later contrasted with the summit for another day did not make for a wasted effort. FF, I know several folks not able to get out to see the great outdoors. What you have done here inspires and delights. You trudge through the splendor of nature, a single set of tracks and yet you carry a nation along with every step. The lessons learned and responsible example you share can and will save many lives. Many great and humble thanks.

    Hi from the Crockpot community in Bulgaria, quite warm here for you -8 deg C, the best climbers turn back, the great Alan Hinkes always advised on never pushing summits, thats why he is still alive.

    You use google map so much, contact them and let them know you hike and take pictures. They could use some updated data. A google camera car has yet to be seen at the top of the mountains. I'm sure Google would enjoy the scenes. That happy cooker crockpot makes the van a home. Those meals look amazing! Enjoy your dinner.

    I have noticed that Forest's mind runs like mine. Something that needs to be taken care of will be set in the back of my mind until I can take care of it. I don't forget about them, I just keep them logged in until I can take care of it. Like the brackets for his battery, and like the diesel hose under the brackets for his heater. I found this page through Vancity Vanlife with Chrome, but this is a much better page. I love the views of the mountains, and the Foresty Forest cook show.

      Yeah - I'd love to spend a winter in Alberta to see if I could cope with -40. The funny thing is the UK is actually at a higher latitude than where the majority of the Canadian population lives at. If we didn't have the gulf stream the UK would be colder than most of Canada is.
