Very interesting and well explained. I think I’m going to go for it. You mentioned about the condensation which my house suffers from. Do you think that possibly a side benefit of your system is that it acts like a PIV unit as well, so pushing air around the house?…..just a thought?

I’m thinking come winter time the heat coming into the house will be significantly reduced due to the pipes being so exposed.

i had , one thought when you said you spilt the diesel and the smell came into the house, how about you fit the fuel tank outside of your box, when you see videos of youtubers taking the heaters apart the fuel tank comes off easily and you may want to consider fitting a bigger tank, you can add another box to cover the tank. i'm getting my first heater tomorrow and plan to do what you have done so its nice to see others doing the same

It’s a better option than those useless heat pumps. You cannot get heat out of a stone and a flame is the best option. Comes from experience down in New Zealand so don’t get sucked I that heat pumps are good, they aren’t if your temperature get below zero. I have one of these diesel heater for my insulated workshop. It’s toasty!

I am running the same heater in a office unit (well isolated shipping containter unit with windows and a normal door) and its great and i have same set up basicly/more or less............ But i hate one thing the fuel tank its inside and small meaning 5L is okay for a few days a few hours a day heating on a medium size pump speed.. But having a 40-60l tank with a internal fuel sender and a fuel gauge in the unit would be perfect and since the show show works on 12V its a great match ................A fuel tank from a car is perfect,i am thinking of making something from a plastic fuel tank from a car with a fuel lever gauge inside.....

It would be better to use the metal flexible exhaust pipes(extended) to create a small radiator for the taste gases so that it can distribute the heat before it goes out cold(or much colder). That was it's a double heating system. In addition, what fuel are you using? I use half diesel and half recycled sunflower oil. To purify the old oil, make a paste of Baking powder and water, add to warm old oil and then bring to a boi, stirring constantlyl. It will get most if not all the impurities out, which saves you from using several filters of diminishing sizes.

So sorry that this was necessary, but a pragmatic solution to a difficult economic problem. Could I also suggest a de-humidifier in the house? They are very inexpensive to run, and reduce your energy costs more than their running costs - an additional benefit is that they prevent black rot and other 'damp associated' problems (including condensation).

@@en53kff So sorry that it is necessary to run a de-humidifier so much, but they do work well when needed. My thoughts are with you. Have you explored all the ways that damp is entering the home? Have you tried hanging your recently washed clothes out of doors before 'finishing them off' indoors? Do you have some air circulation in each room? (Windows do need to be opened for a period of time regardless of the temperature. ) Wishing you all the best. G.

Ive got a cabin out the back. Its got the main office room then a partition for a shed. I was going to set the heater up in the shed side of the cabin. In terms of air intake should i pipe that outside? I wasnt going to bother as the main door to the shed is a corrugated door and there are gaps at the bottom where i can see the ground outside so i was hoping that would be enough to let it draw air in without much fuss. Also does the outlet duct get very hot? I was going to pipe that through the partition wall into the main room of the cabin, the walls are lined with wool insulation and i am just a bit conscious of the possibility of starting a fire

Great job on the setup, super clean! I have one of these heaters for camping and heating the garage in the winter. My only question is would it actually be cheaper than just running your furnace?? I live in canada and it gets cold as balls, i know i've gone though almost a full tank in one night while camping in -30 degrees. I know you probably wouldn't use only this to heat your house in the winter but even lets say to heat one room on low in the spring/fall you might get a day out of the tank? Diesel costs about $1.60/L around here, so $8 per 5L tank... what I'm getting at is my natural gas bill is around $100/month so much cheaper to just run the furnace instead of using this. But I do use the diesel heater in the garage because I don't have a gas line running out there and I am thinking about building a sand battery to capture the wasted exhaust heat.

Very inefficient setup, Inlet air could be down to -4 or lower on coldest days. There's a heated output loss due to what is essentially 2 massive charge coolers from the restricted flow rate using two pipes not to mention the over top length and lack of insulation. People who know how to get the best from these heaters run kerosene and build a metal or concrete box inside with a vented exhaust outside plus a couple of detectors for safety. with is kind of install outside you might as well get a log burner and burn junk mail to keep warm.

Heating oil is slightly cheaper at the moment than the red diesel I am buying. However, it does fluctuate quite a lot and got very expensive at the start of the Ukrainian war. To purchase Heating oil, which where I live is delivered by tanker, you have to have a minimum delivery of 500 litres .

A friend did the same, these heaters are everywhere. But he is spending 80€ a month on heating oil/diesel plus a bit of gas for the main heater in the rest of the house. Asked him why he did not use an air condition (air air heat pump). He hat no explanation except that is costs 1200€. Well.....better heat, no fumes and cool in the summer and its cheaper long term. I heat/cool my house only with an air air heat pump, simple, easy to install, low costs. Runs 8 months of the year with PV modules on my roof. Dont have to buy any oil
