You guys need to remind the newbies that gas heaters need to be ventilated. They not only produce carbon monoxide gas (silent killer as it can't be smelt) but they also produce a lot of moisture - moisture = condensation.

The rules surrounding gas usage are the same as motor home users. The gas must be switched off at the bottle everytime you move the van. You are not permitted to operate any gas appliance on the move.

Diesel hot water heaters aren't governed by the same regulations.

I'm def setting up a gas-Heater this fall. Most I know are using hot, it's a joy to work with . Could imagine especially on first-cleans.
WTF!!! This fall!! This is England, its this autumn! /emoticons/wink.png yes mate, when the weather is icy its a lot more pleasent handling warm hoses /emoticons/smile.png

We can get quite harsh winter over here in Viking-country, hope it helps a bit ../emoticons/biggrin.png

 
If you are lucky enough to be resin only ( I am ) . By far the cheapest and easiest way to get hot water is a hot outside tap . Fill your tank half hour before you go to work . It stays warm all morning , even in the afternoon it is still Luke warm . I only use this way when it gets really cold and on those days I set off a bit later usually 9 .it is warm enough to stop anything freezing and not too warm that you have to upgrade all your hoses and fittings . If you are wanting to use warm the next day simply empty your tank of any water and refill the next day . What could be easier .

@David K is from Denmark and they get a lot of American influence with their expressions. We were the same in South Africa. With the Equity ban we got no film content from the UK. It all came from American.

I get very confused sometimes,; is it a wing or a fender, is it a bulkhead or a firewall, is it a yard or a garden, etc. I love the expression 'the fall'. It just so expressive. Even so, having Engish parents we did refer to Autumn as Autumn. /emoticons/wink.png But not everyone did.

I still hear English people working out how the clocks go back or forward using 'the fall'. Our clocks go back next week ; fall back'.

Most Danish people speak English as a second language. (I expect that English isn't David K's first language.) They get all the latest American films on TV long before we do and in England. They seem to reappear back on the circuit when they have been dubbed into Danish.

My daughter's mother in law is German. Father in law met and married her when he was with the Army stationed in German. She speaks English with a Yorkshire accent as that what she's been taught. She also uses Yorkshire expressions as she's been influenced by her husband.

We knew another German who married an American and she speaks English with an American accent.

Hi Spruce !

That was very informative ,actually didn't know. But you're right, we all get our language from the states,and it's kinda second language to most of us . So spot on . And sorry for the mixup! /emoticons/wink.png
