  • Page 2: Principles Of Operation

    Flue Type - for standard installation PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION This Whale® Space Heater Mk II is a gas only blown air space heater. Nominal heat output is 2kW on gas. The compact design provides versatility in installation locations and needs minimal maintenance. The vehicle internal temperature is set by a room controller which can be manually adjusted to a wide range of temperature settings or to warm weather ventilation.
  • Page 3: Application

    If the heater is to be used in motion, the vehicle in motion kit must be fitted. This is an accessory to the Whale® Space Heater and must be fitted for use when the vehicle is in motion. Otherwise, do not operate the appliance while the vehicle is in motion.
  • Page 4 Please note that incorrect installation, misuse or use of non original Whale® parts may invalidate the warranty. It also becomes illegal to use the appliance if incorrectly installed, and in some countries this even makes it illegal to use the vehicle.

  • Page 6 INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION Fig. 2 Fig. 3 The Whale® space heater can be installed either inside the vehicle (SH2201) as in Fig. 2 or under the floor (SH2211B) as in Fig. 3, depending on which model has been purchased. To the Fitter:...
  • Page 7 A competent person should install the appliance in accordance with the appliance installation instructions. This appliance is for use with LPG (see appliance data plate).

  • Page 11 Step 3 Attach heater to the floor From inside the vehicle feed the exhaust and combustion air flues through the holes drilled on the floor. Locate the heater so that the flues are centralised in the holes and attach heater to floor with 4 screws supplied (No. 8 x ¾”), as per Figs.
  • Page 12 Fig. 15 Step 5 Securing the Flues Fig. 16 Push on the ends of the flues with the blue adaptor to the pipes on the underside of the Space Heater ensuring they are fully pushed on, and secure with supplied hose clips. Step 6 Mounting the flues When mounting the combustion air inlet and exhaust flue, they should ideally run downwards from the heater to their open end to allow any condensation to drain out.
  • Page 13 The combustion air inlet flue is attached to the underside of the floor with two of the brackets supplied. The remaining brackets supplied with the flue kit are used to attach the exhaust flue. Clip the bracket around the flue and use two screws (No.8 x ¾”) to attach each bracket to the floor as per diagram, Fig.17.
  • Page 14 Fig. 19 The appliance should be installed by a competent person in accordance with the installation instructions and comply with any relevant regulations in the country where the appliance is installed.

The supply pipe should be checked and be free from dirt or other particles before connection to the compression joint on the Space Heater.
  • Page 15 Step 9 Fitting Cold Air Supply The Whale® Space Heater must be adequately supplied with cold air. If the heater is installed in a bed box or another confined space, either vents into the area must be fitted or ducting used to supply the heater with cold air. If a vent is fitted, it must be no smaller than one designed for use with 60mm ducting.
  • Page 16 Step 10 Mounting of Whale® Control Panel When mounting the Whale® control panel, find a suitable convenient and accessible position.
