This video was more helpful that the instructions from Propex. Mine wasn't working because I had the power cable plugged into the wrong port, information that is not in the Propex instructions.
had my heater 2000 3yrs works very good in central NI in winter, good video
This is bar none the best video on the propex units out there. Thank you!
Hi Bryce - thanks for the great feedback, much appreciated :)
Thank you so much. I have been following a number of Van Life type videos and looking for good advise on heating. It seems that Mr Buddy is the heater of choice, which actually frightens me, as I have camped, RV'd, lived in remote camps, cabins and lean 2's enough to respect the warnings on such heating devices. My ex used a portable propane heater in our shop for a number of years, which adversely affect his health. I am not ready yet to build out a van but when I do, I will know how to source good information. Thank you again.
Hi Heather, thanks so much for your feedback :)
Great vid.
I am now at the end of third month using HS2800.. it's works great and is very cost effective with propane compared to other heaters I've used.. it is fairly loud when it runs but not intolerable.. yes it does wake me sometimes at night but over all I sleep through the night more often than not.. I've installed it temporarily in a trailer, it's fully open so I do hear the 'mechanical' parts as well as the fan blowing but in a few months I will be ready to install it in my RV (which I bought it for) and it will be totally inclosed in a cabinet with sound insulation around it so a good portion of the noise I hear now will be much lower.. (I have experimented by covering it with a sound insulated wood box so I know how much different it will be when I install in RV)
Hey Mr Meanderthal :-) Great comment, thanks for the sound review
Can you mount this heater from the top underneath mount ?
Hi do you leave the small blue rubber hose section when connecting the steel exhaust outlet to the unit and then connect it with jubilee clip. thanks Andy...
Does the heater come with a 12v plug so i can plug it into my jackery?
i have a tiny teardrop camper how about the smaller model for me the hs2211 from same company what aboutthat one do a review of that one
Is there a problem with running it at high altitude (3000 meters- 9000-11,000 feet)? And if so can the fuel mixture be adjusted?
I came here as I had no heat coming out (new to campers) didnt realise it needed to be connected to LPG bottle! doh all working now
Hi Jon. I'm glad it's sorted :)
LOL--- YOU ARE JOKING RIGHT?????
Lol and this is exactly why goods like these have warnings telling you to get a qualified professional to install it lol, I hope it was a joke lol,but then again I have a new neighbour who bought solar wall lights for his entry and wondered why they did not work and sent them back lol.
I van life in Alaska. Will it start up after being off for hours in 20 below F weather.
What thread is the gas inlet? The piece that my hs2000 came with doesn't seem to fit. I doubt I just have to use lots of sealant!
Is this heater too powerful for a battery such as the Jackery 240 or 500? Or would those be compatible and sufficient?
Hi, could you tell me please how much smoke is going outside from exhaust pipe? Will it be seen in the winter time or summertime that is something's going on in the van? I am asking as I am planning a kind of stealth camping, and sometimes I might be parked on public roads. And another question, how far the gas bottle could be from the heater in term of pressurewise? Thanks.
can you tell me the motor wattage use please
How warm, how much space will it heat & I think I may need two units because I have 19ft to cover!
Hi, we recommend this size for campervans up to around 7m in length (approx 21ft). Cheers
A quick question......can you run only the fan on the Propex heater? I was planning to install two vent fans in my RV, so that I could get good circulation, without having a window or door open. So my question is can the Propex heater run in fan mode only to draw fresh air into the cabin and separate fan, roof mounted fan be used to exhaust air out of the rv?
Hi Heather. Yes you can run the heater on fan mode only. It will just re-circulate the inside air unless you have the cool 'cabin air' feed coming from outside. I don't recommend drawing your cabin air from outside because then you will pressurise the inside cabin air and heat will be forced out the roof vents (if it has passive ventilation holes).
Hi Where can you buy Truma Vario Heater & AC? went to website and shows no US affiliates
Hi, unfortunately I can't tell you if the Truma Vario Heat is available in the US. Might pay to speak with a Dometic dealer.
trumania low speed quiet one what is the name trumania??
Great video, might have missed it but how many watts does it need to power?
it runs off a 12v car battery
He asked how many watts. Not how many volts. We would need to know the amp draw to figure out the watt consumption.
I'm looking at making a sauna..
How HOT do you think heat from a ProPex HS2800 (6500 BTU/hr) into a 64 cu. ft space would get? Do you think it would reach 180F?
Agreed. We need our own personal (home) sauna and steam rooms now with the health club ones closed. Did you find anything out?
Soooo, if i like fan noise im good. Sold
Many thanks for the video. Do you recommend propane/gas or diesel heater for the campervan? both has pros and cons.
if you can wire up your diesel heater to the diesel tank then you are laughing. no need to refil or move big gas tanks!! but to each their own. my van came with this heater so thats what i go with
What is he saying? Trumaveria heat model is quieter?
You can't hear what he says
Can you install the propex on top of a wheel well ?
Hi Dugg. I expect probably not. The heater is mounted to the floor. Under the heater there are 2 hosetails that you connect your inlet & exhaust pipes onto. I don't expect there will be enough space between the wheel and the wheel-well.
What would be your propane usage rate pounds per hour
Hiya. The HS2000 uses 142 g/hour. I'm sure Google has a search engine conversion tools to convert grams to pounds.
.313 lbs. Per hour is not bad if it doesn't run for the entire hour
PS, thanks for the reply
Lol that is my dad
Here in England you would soon be broke with a propane heater . 13 kg ,$40 US ! I must be honest, it is much cheaper in Germany and Morocco . Here we use Diesel heaters. the Best Known is the Epersbacher. Also Webasto and Alden. Cheap to run, Almost Silent ,( Click from the pump) , SAFE ( No gasses or condensation) . New Chinese Copies. They are Cheap & Good !
condensation???🤨do you think its the same principle as a bloody hob burner? 😂 its the same principle as you diesel heater and has a separate combustion chamber from air circulation so not sure where would you get a condensation from?..
My question is how much is it the price everybody talks a lot of crap about these things but never tell you the price the price the price
@Richard Ensey that's why I watch the videos but I'll never ever by those things this cheaper ways to have more for you or power so never spent money like that that is stupid...
@Richard Ensey it's nice because the good thing about it is they won't have no must but if you get to Wave 3 heater you won't get moisture either just keep your window cracked open you'll be okay but stay away from the the Buddy Heater the heat is too hot too fast in the van that creates a lot of moisture..
Piece of shit. $900 wasted. No thank you. Once it's UNINSTALLED for the cheap diesel heater I should have bought in the first place. 11 years as a trucker the diesel heater kept me warm. I could buy 6 for what I paid for a Propex. Total garbage and terrible support.
Can you share what heater you purchased?
@@healingjourneys4241 propex. I don't remember what model. Dealer in AZ had just dropped the line because they had terrible service from the factory.
I bought a Chinese diesel heater from Amazon for $130 and 2 winters later I'm still happy. Not with my propex experience though.
