Expert Answers about Heaters
- Recommended Oil Heater For A 2005 Subaru Outback 2.5
- Your best bet will be to go with the Kats Heaters Engine Oil Dipstick Heater # KH15200. We do not offer an immersion style heater that will work with your 2005 Subaru Outback. The Dipstick Heater, on the other hand, will be a great fit.
Another option is to go with a magnetic heater like the Kat's Heaters Handi-Heat Magnetic Heater # KH1155. The heater itself is 3-5/8" long x 2-1/4" wide and can be attached to the oil pan.

- The Kat's Heaters Thermostatically Controlled Circulating Tank Heater # KH30115 basically just installs in the lower radiator hose and plugs in when needed. After that you'd just need to plug the heater in and you'd be set.
To install the heater you will first need to drain the cooling system. Then cut the lower radiator hose in the middle of the hose and install the Lower Radiator Hose Connector for Kat's Heaters Circulating Tank Heaters part # KH28115 (included) into the lower hose...

- I have a few options for your 2006 Dodge Sprinter 2500 with 2.7L I5 Engine, a block heater like the Kat's Heaters Custom Engine Block Heater part # KH11483 or an engine oil pan heater like the Kat's Heaters Oil or Transmission Pan Heating Pad part # KH24500. I recommend the block heater as it's a custom fit, designed for your exact vehicle whereas the oil pan heater is a universal stick-on type.
I agree that an oil pan heater with direct submersion would be best but this is unfortunately...

- Based on my research, the GC10A-3E is a 10-gallon Atwood gas and electric water heater. While we don't have any standard water heaters that have that capacity what you could use is a tankless water heater like the part # LSB44FR. What's really great about these types of water heaters is that since they don't have a tank and heat the water as it passes through it you don't ever run out of hot water.

- We have supplemental heaters that would work great in your 2000 Fleetwood Pace Arrow like the Camco Olympian Wave 8 Catalytic Safety Heater # CAM57351 but based on the limitations of this heater and the length of your Fleetwood Pace Arrow this wouldn't be adequate as a primary heater source.

- The Kat's Heaters Handi-Heat Magnetic Heater # KH1155 referenced in your question will simply be placed on a flat area at the bottom of the oil pan for your 2014 Ford Escape.
If you are wanting to install the heater permanently you will unscrew the oil pan gasket bolt and secure the heater by bolting a piece of perforated metal strapping in place. Remove the handle from the heater and place it in the oil pan making sure it is low enough for maximum heat conduction.

The frost plug is on the front left side of the engine, about halfway down. I have printed the instructions from the Kat's Engine Block Heater Owner's Manual. You will need a 28mm wrench, a flat head screwdriver, a punch, and pliers. The screwdriver, punch, and pliers are to aid you in the removal of the freeze plug. You will have to check a repair...

This cartridge style heater will install in the rear right (RR) position on the engine block, which is the point of the engine that is closest to the passenger seat on your Santa Fe. I have attached a diagram to assist.

view full answer... - Which Kats Heater Do I Use for My 2016 Chevy Equinox 2.4L I-4 Engine
- I checked with Kat's Heaters and they determine which heater to use by the OEM parts that are available for your vehicle. The 2016 Chevy Equinox with the 2.4L I-4 engine did not use a plug heater like the # KH11811, but instead will use an oil pan heater to accomplish the same thing. You will want to use the Kat's Heaters Oil or Transmission Pan Heating Pad # KH24100, which is the correct heater for your vehicle and will work on oil or transmissions with no more than 7 quarts of fluid....

view full answer... - Recommended Heater for Basement of Slide-In Truck Camper
- The Kat's Heaters # KH37100 that you'd looked at works very well, but at 900 watts of output it's more than you'd need for the small space you described.
I'd recommend going with a 12V heater like the # KH37500 which has a 150 or a 300 watt setting that should be perfect for the basement of your slide in camper since it sounds like you don't necessarily want the area to be heated to room temperature, but would like it warm enough so that the pipes and tanks don't freeze and the propane...
view full answer... - Recommended Tankless Water Heater to Replace Atwood Water Heater
- Excellent idea to go with a tankless water heater to replace your Atwood heater. Tankless heaters give you immediate hot water right away and use much less energy, so it's truly a major upgrade.

- There's a wiring diagram in the install instructions for the Dometic RV Water Heater part # DMC74FR that I attached to this page. I don't have a way to verify what the wires of your RV are that ran to your old water heater though. We do have to recommend that a qualified tech be who installs the water heater.
