Hey Kelley;

We are going with a small heater from = J.C.=20 Whitney, (Product Number: 12903G, or 1JA 943018, whichever = fits)=20 because they have defroster as well as regular forced=20 air. They are also small enough to go in the front of = our=20 avionics shelf, right up next to the firewall, so easy plumbing, 140 = CFM,=20 12,000BTU's. We will put a valve on both ends, in case of leaks=20 though. Not a good idea to have coolant running around the cockpit = at 15K=20 feet, that's why we ran ALL plumbing outside of the=20 fuselage.

Joe,

Opinions express in earlier posts on this = subject seem=20 to suggest that using the engine coolant

for cabin heat would be much more = efficient......................Perhaps=20 the experts of the list will chime

in on the technical details as to why................

Has anyone tried a oil to water heat exchager on a = seperate=20 loop with an
