For those of you who like to camp spring and fall up north then one of these
heaters is the ticket. A number of list members bought the Carver P4's (myself
included) back in the late 90's and they are very similar to the Propex
heaters that Karl is offering. Installation isn't too very difficult and you
can buy another propane tank like the one that comes on the Westy and install
it on the opposite side under the door. On my 84 westy the mounting bolts were
already there so that you have one tank for the heater and one for cooking.
Makes a great camper even better. It's so very nice on those cold mornings
when you wake up and can see your breath and simply reach up and start the
furnace......;- )
