Can anyone recommend a heater i can put in my camper?

Not sure what the best option is, either 240v or other

see this. Will run off petrol from the existing fuel tank. It’s good but expensive and will need to be professionally installed and certified.

If you have camper conversion or lpg you could also use Gas Propex heater connected directly to your Butane/Propane bottle.

I was quoted just under £1500 all in during my conversion.

Yes, they definitely do petrol versions, I used to have a petrol one in my old petrol campervan. You need to poke around the website, see below as an example. Remember petrol is still very common and popular combustion engine in many markets even for bigger vehicles/vans so these things do exist but you might need to

import or make a special order with uk

importer. Good luck.

Hi Nick,

Our campervan converter put in an MV Airo heater (made by MV Heating UK, Southampton) - runs off petrol and is installed under the front passenger seat. It needs a 12v power supply for the fan (leisure batttery/EHU/Solar?) Fan isn't too noisy, but for quiet operation we normally use a small oil-filled radiator when on EHU (i.e. mains voltage, rather than 12v).

Regards,
