Re: [T3] Eberspacher heater questions

<x-flowed>SteveJ=> do these gas heaters actually BURN gasoline INSIDE the vehicle?
=> Wouldn't that be a monoxide problem?

Yes, and no. They have exhaust systems that dump outside; modern RVs and 
buses use the same sort of system.

Fuel heaters are not without hazards (I had one ignite inappropriately 
in my Bus), but when properly installed, operated and maintained they 
are quite safe and effective. That said, the stock late Type 3 passive 
heat system is good enough for most climates, imho, unlike the Type 1/2 
system.
