Hydronic water heaters

An efficient heat source for a diverse range of requirements

The Eberspächer Hydronic water heater is a genuine all-rounder. It can easily be integrated in the engine’s existing coolant circuit, takes up minimal space, and can be used both as an additional heater for the front area and for engine pre-heating as well as for heating the interior via convectors. When used in combination with a boiler, you can also heat the tap water for your shower or sink, for example. Of course, each application can also be integrated in your vehicle as a complete system, for maximum comfort. Why do without the finer things in life when you’re on the road?

The main benefits:

  • Extremely high heating performance up to 12 kW
  • Low fuel and electricity consumption
  • Runs quietly
  • Space-saving installation in the engine compartment or underfloor
  • Can be operated at high altitude  

 

Please note: Fuel operated heaters are not suited as building heating system but authorized exclusively for the use in vehicles.

The Hydronic 3 – the pinnacle of development

High-tech for high comfort

The Eberspächer Hydronic 3 creates warmth and comfort at a high technological level.

It combines maximum comfort with constant heating performance and low fuel consumption. The heating process is continuously monitored by highly sensitive sensors, and electronically controlled.

In vehicle models with pre-heatable engines, starting is gentler on the engine and is less of a burden on the battery.
