Subject: Re: Eberspacher - How Many Outlets Author: Brad Croshaw [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 1/02/06 11:23:28 In reply to: Neil 's message, "Eberspacher - How Many Outlets" on 27/01/06 20:17:52 I sail throughtout the year and having tried other forms of heating I decided to purchase an Eber D2 for MuchAdo. I got the 2 outlet kit but so far have only fitted it with one outlet in the saloon. The routing for the pipe to the heads means pulling quite a bit of the boat apart so it's still waiting to be done. I can say that it has made winter sailing really comfortable and worth every penny, the kit is comprehensive with quality parts and every fitting needed is included. The siting of the unit needs some careful consideration particularly with regards the exhaust outlet. I put mine in the Starboard cockpit locker, I made a support from ply etc just aft of the locker lid fixed to the inner side of the cockpit, this allowed me to run the exhaust to the transom with out too many sharp bends. Even withthe exhaust pipe lagged it still gets very hot and needs to be fixed so it not in contact with any part of the boat. Also the warm air pipe gets very hot for up to about a metre from the outlet and is bestlagged. As far as number of outlets the only constraint would be the total lengh of piping including any inlet pipe you may decide to use. Ther has been a lot of discussions about these and others on the YBW forums you may find helpful. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
