Had one on a boat with rads and it worked a treat. You do need an expantion tank with it. Don't quote me on this but if you only have one rad you may have problems with it cycling on and of to regularly?
Having used the hot air system as well, my preference would be to go for the hot air blower- although the rad option is good for drying clothes which could be a bonus in your circumstances?

Thanks for the replies...Mmmmmm i think in reality the weight of the rads/water heater would be heavier than a standard blower.
Now i have narrowed it down a bit....do i go for:
Truma Fixed Gas heaters for caravans and motorhomes uk
these require no power whats ever and run on butane or propane
http://www.propexheatsource.co.uk/air-heaters.php
A propex (propane/butane) blower type heater
Or a webasco/eberspacher diesil cab type blower heater
Anyone tried the trauma, its basically a fully vented gas fire for camper vans, mobile caravans etc that can either use a fan(uses 12v) or normally aspirated lol
Cheers all,
steve.

Yes 2x that I had one in my camper and lived in it through 2 winters and never got cold ! ace bit of kit , wish i had taken it out for my Disco
I have an ex mod 110 with a 2.5 n/a and there fore have lots of engine bay room. Is it ok to fit these units in the engine bay, and duct the heating pipe either through the bulkhead or underneath and into the cab, with temperature stat and controls inside the cab as well ?
Talking thermo tops...
Ps if the thermo top has its own water pump, with the engine off, will the landy water pump allow water "through" it if its not moving ?
