I chose the 2KW heater because I would rather have one that could go very low and use the least diesel rather than work most efficiently in the winter. I think this was the correct decision. The 5KW in my van cab pumps out a LOT more heat on the lowest setting and would have been too much for my caravan.

And the number of outlets determines the air volume. If you have a large vehicle or room, we recommend a 4-tuyere diesel air heater. Besides, depending on your operating habit, you can choose the heater with a digital panel or knob control. No separate fuel source required since they run off diesel in the running tank (for plumbed in heaters) As you can see from the table the main differences between the budget and premium models are the cost and warranty availability.
