Webasto EASY Installation Guide - HOW TO INSTALL a Webasto Airtop 2000 STC Diesel Heater

[@christinepearse5021]

I'll definitely use your video when I install mine with my van. You've made me think of other areas to install it now as opposed to under the seat. Thanks!!

[@timw3411]

“...electrical harness, just gotta plug a couple things in. And finally the gasket....and then your thermostat. And finally the mounting plate....” it’s the little things that crack me up. Great personality and informative. Win win.

lol yeah I kept forgetting things.

[@sammorris9609]

I remember many years ago a very smart supervisor telling someone how to make a set of instructions for training on how to do a certain job in the oilfields. He said make it so simple that my Gramma could look at and do it. You did it. Very well done Sir.

[@maxwelledison7566]

One thing to remember is that with how well you have that insulated you'll usually be running that heater on low. When they only run on low the burner chamber builds up with carbon and stops working as well, to solve it run the thing on full blast for an hour or two every now and then to burn out the extra. I can always show you how to rebuild it and clean it out by hand too. Let me know if you have any questions, I've installed a lot of those.

[@TruckHouseLife]

Yup, I've read about that, I'll just leave the door open and blast it once a month lol.

Espar Vs webasto??? Thoughts?

[@maxwelledison7566]

@@thepatternforms859 both are great units. I can't really say I would prefer one over the other. They both have the same features. Really I would look into availability in your area. You might have a dealer for one brand and not the other.

Youll love it. I have a Chinse Diesel heater from Amazon. Works amazing. I installed it in my teardrop for camping at the ski areas. They sips diesel. So effecient. The Webastos will mount in the same space as the chinese ones. They are copies. The cool thing on the chinese heaters is they adjust for altitude in the controller. These usually need a high altitude kit.

Excellent work muh man 🦾 I installed one in my camper a few weeks ago and freakin love it! Now that I have the spray on insulation in there walls are not finished yet) the heater on lowest setting kept the camper a cozy 84 degrees. Huge improvement over the my buddy heater! You'll have to keep us posted on whether or not the diesel has a geling issue when it's extremely cold at night or if you run anti gelling additives as preventative measures. Tank location took a lot of deliberation on my part before I committed to mounting it where I did. Can't wait to see how you mount the camper to the new flatbed!

[@TruckHouseLife]

nice man!

[@dickthomas2535]

Great step by step. You made it clear on how to install. The only thing I can suggest is..... the camper was a little high off the ground to use as a work surface. You can adjust that by letting the air out of your tires for the precise ergonomically work surface. Peace,love&tolerance

Timmy really has an issue with keeping too much air in his tires. He just won't listen to logic!

[@TruckHouseLife]

@@dustinpollard6237 lol I aired down the first time removing it, but it wasn't enough to drive under it still wasn't enough clearance without putting boards under the jacks... it takes a really long time to deflate 2 35" tires inflated to 80psi and then reinflate them... so instead of sitting there 20 minutes deflating air out of 2 tires and another 10 minutes inflating them, I just put boards under the tires. But now I'll have to refigure the entire jack system.

Looking at this very unit to get, I have half the cost in AMEX credit saved, so thinking strongly use it up on one. This gem can be mobile-set up in house then switched to Van for a few weeks then back to homestead , it's so versatile. Love your Idea to have a solar and on top, I thought about a windmill, they will do the same yet all hours of day - Certainly Wind element "limited thought isn't a deal breaker. SO a windmill + Solar panel + little burner is a sweet Combo to create power independently, IMO..

[@TruckHouseLife]

Right?!

[@beaksbakiraq3850]

Love your videos! I hate to be a bummer but you installed the heater upside down. According to the manual the vent air flow needs to be horizontal or hot air out the top. Hot air rises and making it go down will cause the Webasto to get excessively hot inside. If the ducting is short you will probably still be fine but I figure I'd let you know so you can keep an eye on it. I installed a hydronic one upside down before and the heating chamber had got an air lock. It would run for 5 minutes overheat and shut off. It took a while before I figured out. I just assumed they didn't want the exhaust pointing up because of condensation but there was more to it than that.

[@TruckHouseLife]

I called Webasto and they said to install it just like I did with the webasto label right side up and hot air blowing downwards in the direction of the arrow. I called the webasto techs just to make sure before installing it.

[@bobpickersgill4470]

These Webasto heater were very popular two decades ago before OTR tractors came with APUs. My heater was mounted horizontally in the side box. No cold air inlet duct req'd, flexible exhaust tube exited out the bottom to the rear and the warm air entered the bunk area at floor level behind the driver's seat. I seem to recall someone recommending not operating it while in transit. The internal basket/burner is fragile and pricey to replace. I'd sleep with windows half open as keeping the thermostat cranked up resulted in a clean burn. Excellent BTU output.

[@GF-pc5bt]

Lol looks nice and clean !

[@TruckHouseLife]

thanks!

[@andreasnarfstrom]

Great tutorial. I've seen newer ones with Bluetooth and iOS/Android app connectivity, it seems neat. How does the thermostat on this one work, is the heater on constantly or does it cycle off and on after it reaches target temperature or go down automatically on a lower burn?

The fresh air is for the combustion process inside the heater, not for distribution of heated air in the camper. I think anyways, that's how wood, coal, and pellet stoves work.
