⚠️ Diesel heater Safety instructions

The diesel heater's combustion process consumes oxygen and produces dangerous exhaust gases. Incorrect installation can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning or fire.

1. Exhaust routing (Main rule)

• Exhaust outside only: Exhaust gases must be routed with a metal exhaust pipe completely outside the building, tent or vehicle.

• Sealing: Ensure the exhaust connection to the heater body is sealed with the supplied clamp. Even a small leak into the cabin can be fatal.

• CO alarm: Always install a good-quality carbon monoxide alarm (CO detector). It is inexpensive life insurance.

  
  

2. Exhaust temperature and insulation

The exhaust pipe reaches very high temperatures in use.

• Max temperature: Diesel heater exhaust gas temperature can reach up to 250–450 °C at the outlet depending on power. The metal pipe itself can glow hot.

• Through-penetration: If the exhaust pipe is routed through a wall or floor, use non-combustible insulation (e.g. rock wool or a separate metal penetration sleeve). The pipe must not touch wood, plastic or other combustible materials directly.

• Clearance: Keep the exhaust pipe at least 10 cm away from any melting or combustible materials along its entire length.

  
  

3. Combustion air and heated air

• Separate air intakes: Ensure the heater exhaust is not near the unit's combustion air intake or the heated space's intake. Otherwise the unit may draw its own exhaust back in.

  
  

4. Fuel handling

• Place the fuel tank so that in the event of a leak diesel cannot flow onto the hot exhaust pipe.
