Find the right caravan heater for winter touring, off-grid camping or a repair job, including diesel heater kits, Truma gas heaters, ducting, fuel tanks, controllers, manuals and model-specific spare parts.
Shop Diesel & Gas HeatersChoose complete diesel or gas heater kits for a new install. For an existing heater, use parts, tanks, ducting and model sections that match the brand and model.
If you are new to caravan heaters, start with the fuel and the install path. Most people are choosing between a diesel air heater, an LPG gas heater, or parts for a heater already fitted in the van.
Use diesel and gas heaters when you are choosing a complete heater kit. A diesel heater is usually the easier path for cold-weather free camping, especially if you want to save LPG for cooking and hot water. It still needs 12V power, a diesel tank or fuel supply, safe exhaust routing and good duct layout.
A gas heater can be a good fit when the van is already built around LPG and the cowl position, clearances and gas supply work. Gas heaters are quiet and familiar, but the gas work must be planned with a licensed gas fitter. For the full comparison, read the diesel vs gas heater guide.
For many small to mid-size caravans, a 2kW diesel air heater is the normal starting point. A 5kW heater can suit larger vans, canvas-heavy campers or very cold touring, but oversizing can make the heater cycle too much, run sooty and feel too hot too quickly. Use the 2025 diesel heater guide if you are weighing budget diesel kits against Autoterm, Webasto or Eberspacher options.
For diesel heaters, plan the fuel tank position, fuel pump angle, exhaust route, combustion air path, hot-air ducting, outlet count and 12V cable run before ordering. Check the kit contents as well: controller, tank, ducting, exhaust, pump, mounting plate and install hardware vary between kits.
For gas heaters, check the cowl position, nearby windows, doors, annex areas, appliance clearances and pipe route before committing. Use the caravan gas installation guide and the regulator and gas hose guide early, not after the heater arrives.
Heater parts are model-specific. Before buying heater parts, write down the heater brand, model, controller type, duct diameter and cowl colour. Truma E2400, Truma VarioHeat, Autoterm, Webasto and Eberspacher parts can look similar but are not automatically interchangeable.
Use Truma E2400 parts or Truma VarioHeat parts for Truma repairs, Autoterm parts and Eberspacher parts for diesel heater repairs, and diesel fuel tanks when the heater kit does not solve the tank location cleanly.
Use these paths to narrow the choice: diesel heater, gas heater, ducting and tank parts, model-specific spares or safety and install guides.
Diesel and gas caravan heaters solve different touring and install problems. If you are repairing an existing heater, the brand, model and duct size matter more than appearance.
| Heater choice | Best for | Fuel and power checks | Check carefully |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diesel air heater | Cold-weather touring, off-grid camping and vans where diesel storage or a small dedicated fuel tank is practical. | Usually 12V electrical control plus diesel fuel from a tank or vehicle supply. | Install quality matters: exhaust, combustion air, fuel pump angle, ducting and controller setup all affect safety and reliability. |
| LPG gas heater | Vans already built around LPG appliances, quiet heat and established Truma gas heater support. | LPG for heat with 12V control/fan power depending on model. | Gas fitting, ventilation, clearances and compliance should be handled by licensed trades. Match cowl colour and model before ordering parts. |
| Heater parts and ducting | Repairing outlets, cowls, controllers, tanks, ducting, sensors, pumps and brand-specific heater parts. | Parts depend on heater model, duct diameter, controller type and fuel system. | Similar-looking ducting and controllers can suit only one model family. Check the manual or diagram before ordering. |
Before buying a caravan heater, confirm the heater type, fuel path, ducting size, wiring, air intake, exhaust route and model details for parts.
Heater parts are brand and model specific. Similar cowls, outlets, controllers and ducting can differ by heater family, production version and duct size.
| Brand or model | Use for | Check carefully | Best next step |
|---|---|---|---|
| Born To Roam / AU Focus | Budget-friendly diesel heater kits, 2kW and 5kW paths, tanks, covers, tool kits and manuals. | Confirm kit generation, harness matching and exactly which install parts are included. | Use the product manual and check the kit contents. |
| Autoterm | 2kW diesel heater kits, controllers, ducts, filters, vents, tanks and service parts. | Controller, duct diameter and 2D model fitment matter. Some parts are low or zero stock. | Start with Autoterm parts and manuals. |
| Eberspacher / Webasto | Premium diesel heater kits, fuel tanks, controller queries, ducting and service parts. | Older D2/D4 and Airtronic part numbers can be confusing. Product support varies by model. | Start with manuals and model-specific parts. |
| Truma VarioHeat / E2400 | Gas heaters, E2400 parts, VarioHeat parts, cowls, outlets, sensors, ducts and single-outlet kits. | E2400, VarioHeat and Combi heater parts are not automatically interchangeable. | Start with the Truma E2400 diagram and VarioHeat categories. |
If you already have a caravan heater, start with the brand, model, fuel type, duct diameter and controller details. These guides, diagrams and manuals help confirm what fits.

Diesel heaters are often popular for cold-weather and off-grid touring because they can run from a small diesel tank and give strong cabin heat. Gas heaters suit vans already designed around LPG, but need licensed gas fitting and correct ventilation.
Many small to mid-size vans use a 2kW diesel air heater, while larger spaces may use a higher-output heater. Check the van size, insulation, duct run, outlet count and install location rather than choosing by wattage alone.
A diesel heater install involves fuel, exhaust, combustion air, electrical wiring and hot-air ducting. Follow the heater manual carefully and use qualified help where safety, gas, electrical or compliance rules apply.
Use the heater brand, model, manual and part diagram before ordering. Controllers, cowls, ducting, pumps, outlets and sensors can be model-specific even when they look similar.
Kit contents vary. Check whether the kit includes the controller, fuel tank, ducting, exhaust, pump, mounting plate, outlets and installation hardware needed for your layout.
No concerns with the mechanisms for delivering the part, it arrived quickly and conveniently at the local post office but the $10 delivery cost for a $10 component no bigger than a medium size screw was excessive. This may be the standard delivery cost but this needs to be reviewed by administration within your company.
