Webasto Air Top 5000 installation.

The winter is coming!!!! Yep, it is september only, but winter is soon, so I got cab heater. It was bad, so I got it free!!! YEAH!!!

It is AT5000. I made a remote controll tor it and got glow plug fault code. The problem was in MOSFET switch inside control unit. I fixed it easily and did test start on bench.

Ok, now I wanna fit this monster in Century Class ST cab. So any tips gentelmen.

Ouh! I wanna install separate tank for cab heater, becouse when it is really cold diesel fuel is like a gel and we use to fill cab heater tank with aircraft jet fuel and add some (up to 30%) of jet fuel in diesel fuel.

 

P/S, to diagnose it I used Mercedes Star Diagnose, but today I assemblied ISO K-L adapter and used Webasto TermoTest software, avilable free on Webasto Web Site

 

well, the quation is what is the optimal point of installation? I wann install it in right hand sleeper box but I need to get intake air somewhre in cab but avoid heated air and intake mixing

 

what park heater is used on Cascadia? AT2000ST ore Eber D3LC?

 

You say about air intake of combustion chamber, I say about air to heat intake, 3" hole with grill, inside cab. Heated air outlet is 3" too, but no grill.

about 1" air intake to burn fuel and 1" exaust... yep, I will do all the way you say

 

Aha, like on DAF and MAN trucks. Mercedes install it on early trucks hidden by driver's seat, on newer - in box, outdoor.

I wanna install under lower bunk.

What the truck do you have? mine is Century Class S/T
