Dometic releases auxiliary electric heaters

Dometic has introduced a new auxiliary electric heater for vehicles needing extra heat in very cold climates.

The new electric modules are available in 2.5 or 4.0 kW sizes, and each module uses multiple heater coils with two-stage heating control to provide temperature control and energy efficiency. The heaters also comes with a Qt electronic control, which Dometic says automatically throttles back heat and power consumption as inside air approaches set-point temperature.

“We have developed these new heat modules in response to requests from trucking fleets operating in very cold regions, such as northern Canada and Alaska, where sub-zero temperatures are common,” says Lou Siegel Dometic spokesman. “We have drawn on our more than 50 years of experience in HVAC technology to bring to market a flexible and reliable system for these extreme low-temperature conditions.”
