Webasto Installation Guide

Vanlife Outfitters Installation Blog Post

Webasto heaters have a variable speed fan that runs continuously when the heater is on. It runs very slowly when not heating and ramps up speed when heating. You also can set the heater to run on "fan only" mode.

Installing your heater on top of a subfloor instead of directly onto the van's metal floor? Be sure to purchase a Surface Mounting Kit separately.

• Intake Air Silencer

High Altitude Information

The Air Top 2000 STC is Webasto's smallest heater which is a great form factor for a camper van and is generally plenty powerful to keep you warm (2 kilowatt heating capacity). However, the small burner on these heaters is susceptible to excessive carbon build up - particularly the gasoline models. Webasto has designed the heater to work optimally up to 4,900 feet altitude.

If you're going to be spending a lot of time at higher elevations you should consider the Air Top 2000 STC (Altitude Adjusted) heater that has been professionally pre-adjusted to work at up to 6,400 feet, or even the larger EVO 40 heater (4 kilowatt heating capacity). The gasoline EVO 40 can be used at up to 7,200 feet, and the diesel EVO 40 can be used at up to 18,000 feet! The EVO 40 is physically larger and therefore has a larger burner chamber, which reduces the risk of carbon buildup issues, and it has "automatic" altitude adjustment capability.

So, while the Air Top 2000 STC will work at higher altitudes for shorter periods of time, Webasto does not recommend it and, if you do, you should run the heater at "full load" (turned up all the way) when you return to lower altitudes for at least a few hours in order to try to clean out the burner chamber.

We also recorded a one hour video interview with a Webasto tech that has a lot of great information. You can watch the full video or use this link to jump to the part of the video where we discuss using an Air Top 2000 STC at altitude.
