Frequently asked questions
What is an auxiliary heater for a Sprinter?
It is a diesel fired heater that warms the cabin without idling the engine, drawing from the van fuel tank. It is popular for camper builds and cold nights, and we install it with proper fuel and exhaust routing.
Do I need a roof fan if I have AC?
A roof fan moves fresh air and clears heat and moisture that AC alone does not, which helps a parked van in Riverside heat. Many owners run both, and we can integrate them into one comfort setup.
