Using a Webasto

Whilton Marina have created a video showing how to work a Webasto (a diesel heating system). There are also other diesel heating brands which work in a smiliar way. These are Eberspacher and Mikuni.

Great demonstration. I also learned that the unit can clogg itself up if the power is disconnected while the webasto is at full heating. This leaves unburnt fuel in the chamber and if the user is disconnecting power to shut it down quickly several times , it will eventually refuse to start up again without an expensive dismantle and repair prosess. The uninterrupted cool down is very important to the system.

I'm looking into the possibilty of one of these for my boat but doesn't that jet turbine noise get on your nerves? Sounds like the taxiway of an airport.

Hi, is this a better more reliable unit than an Espar ? Im wondering if i can heat a 37 ft RV in minus 15 with one of these Thanks

Hi, I have a Webasto 66887K on our 57 foot narrow boat, this is a two year old boat and my heating system has just starting to play up!!! The control lights up and the heat exchanger is getting very hot but there is a bubbling noise and the central heating is not getting hot or water tank. any ideas what this could be, I am presuming this could be maintenance of the heat exchange any ideas would be appreciated!!!

[@WhiltonMarina]

Hi Debbie, it is a maintenance issue. Have you had your Webasto serviced in the last 12 months? if not you need to find a Webasto specialist near you and get your system serviced.

What's the diesel consumption per hour?

[@WhiltonMarina]

+Phen0mable Heating costs vary depending on usage. Webasto quotes a figure of 0.25 to 0.5 litres of fuel per hour, depending on the load.
