I've finally got fed up with my old in cab heating (gloves and wooly hat) and bought a 2.2kw mains electric preheated. However having spent time looking and not wanting to start chopping hoses wondered if anyone has fitted one, and where ?

presumably a heater hose would be the easiest presumably it has a pump with it

It does, it's like the hot frog etc. looking at the Landy manual I think I've sorted it. Will turn it on and see ....

I mounted it off the heater matrix hoses.... Not the best option. it's worked to a degree but there must be a better place ? The principle seems to make sense (to me anyway) you ideally need flow into the block and out but I'm not sure where the best point is especially as it's a 16 ish mm dia pipe ( like the matrix )

You've got it in the right place (in line with one of the heater hoses I'm guessing), there's not really anywhere else it can go is there? Don't forget to have the heater controls set to full hot so it can flow properly!
