Heaters

slededjr · Nov 7, 2018

Just thought I’d share these heaters that my buddy is now carrying with everyone in case anyone interested or looking for options. Forced air for trailers(2 types) coolant circulation heaters (110v or diesel fired). Pics and pricing attached. The self enclosed unit has a 5L fuel tank built in which will range in runtime from 10Hrs to 50 Hrs. Come with remotes as well and can be programmed to operate are certain times etc. 1 year warranty from manufacturer.

Those look pretty neat, the electric circulation heater is a nice idea.
Hows the reliability of the diesel fired coolant heaters?

I’m putting one of the self contained in my enclosed this weekend, one in the company fleet enclosed and and two friends also are installing in their enclosed. The circulation heaters we use on our diesel powered pumps. The diesel fired circulation heater I have similar one in my truck. Good prices compared to the other shops around selling similar. The open forced air u it has aluminum case where most are plastic.

Good reliability out of the diesel fired coolant heater? I had a bad experience with a espar that turned me off to them.

Can you post pictures of the install in the trailers? I’m interested how guys are gonna mount them. Are you adding more heat ducting when installed in the trailers or are you just running off the one on the the unit?

I have one of the 12’ Polaris enclosed trailers. I just installed mine this morning. Dave (owner) just installed his in his 24’ Pace today as well. Not too sure what he did with his yet but he’s going to send me some pics later. Mine, I just simply screwed it to the floor. Took a piece of sheet metal and screwed to the floor behind it where the exhaust pipe exits. Basically I used a 1.5” hole saw in the floor plywood, and a 3/4” in the sheet metal. Screwed sheet metal down and ran exhaust through. Since there’s not much room in my 12’ I have the heater on one side and battery on the other. Directly in front of the sleds. Battery box (RV style) not shown in pic. Normal price is $1680, $1550 is for S&M members. I forgot to mention that.

Any S&M members get any waffles today on the heater?

cnelson6 · Nov 14, 2018

Any updates on the large enclosed trailer? Just wondering how it will work in one.

slededjr · Nov 14, 2018

Yes. Temp increased 1 degree every 3 mins. He had it up to 22 C no problem he said. Not ducted, just literally blowing straight out of the unit.

Works to warm your forklift engine too lol

You can run it off a 12V source or 110V. Has built in converter.
