Re: Espar Hydronic cabin heater versus Hurricane brand

Posted by Dave_Benjamin (dave_benjamin@…>)

I found that Hurricane is a much better unit than Espar. Espar is a
truck heater modifed for marine use. Hurricane was built for the
marine environment to begin with. I spent several months researching
the options before committing. The Hurricane requires less
maintenance than Espar. They all cost around the same and are a lot
of work to install.

Espar heaters are the best. Run don’t walk to get one. You will
be very happy. Diesel, small amps
drain, and very little noise. Controlled by thermostat.

Subject: [freedomyachts2003] Espar Hydronic cabin heater

We wanted something to heat our sailboat while an anchor. So we
wanted
something that did not require electric. Someone suggested an
Espar
Hyrdonic cabin heating system. It evidently runs off the deisel.
Anyone have one? Heard of one. I Googled but did not come up with
anything that explained how it worked. Is it smelley. To where does
it
exhaust. Thank you for the info. Faith
