  • D5 HEATER

    WAS SUPRISED WHEN IT DIDN'T COME WITH A THERMOSTAT OR ENOUGH PINS TO WIRE THE FUEL PUMP, OTHER THAN THAT IT WAS GREAT. WE ARE AN ESPAR DEALER AND HAD A FALLING OUT WITH OUR SUPPLIER. WE WILL BE BUYING FROM HEATSO AGAIN. GREAT EXPERIENCE

    Straight forward install, just make sure you follow instructions. More than enough parts to route everything. Depending on Thermostat option, you have to splice a couple wires together on harness to controller to allow Thermostat regulation, kinda hidden in instructions for thermostat. Otherwise it is a fantastic heater. Using it in a 24' work trailer.
