    My AT2000 worked fine in my 72" Pro Sleeper in the MN winters. Temps got below -30* and I still had to crack a window becausethe thing was cooking me out. Once the inside temp in the truck read 105* and it was well below 10* outside!!!

    I sugest cab was preheated with coolant heater before)

    AT2000 may be calibrated up to +40 dgr C. not more. I use to set it on 25 dgr C. It is enought for me

    Thanks everybody at least I know a good price point, when I was looking at them a couple years ago I pretty quickly found a $500 difference and an installed price.

    I take it to the dealer service center and have it tested and fixed. All i know is they told me it was plugged with carbon and needed cleaned.

    The gasket kit was $55, and new fuel filter was $25 and the labor was $85.... still cheaper than a new one LOL

    You can clean internals, but not burner insert. if it is clogged with carbon - just change it. and it is not all, with TermoTest software you can ajust fuel:air mixture. Change it to lean a bit, but not too lean, else it may loose flame ore heat not well enought.

    If it is AT2000 (not ST), there is small variable resistor on control board, easy to ajust.

    To avoid carbon we use to add 10-20 % of aircraft jet fuel.

    Gas heaters (AT2000B, Eber B3LC) may be used with LPG dozing systems. and no carbon. but some winter problems
