    Heater Vents

    Finally getting around to fitting my Heatercraft 3 vent heater, and including it in my closed water system.
    (I live in the UK and run in the sea - saltwater).
    If you think its cold there, should try the water temp/ weather here most of the season!!!
    Think this will get a fair bit of use when installed.

    Will be fitting the matrix in the drivers cubby and 1 euro vent directly under the dash/ kick plate.
    Looking at other threads I see the most common locations for the Hot-tubes are in the walkway and in the base behind the drivers seat.

    Anyone got any pics of these fitted?
    Would like to fit them similar to the factory installed / best location, and you only get one go at this.
    Fancy also getting a walk-through screen and not sure if the vent will fit infront of the door on a 20V along with the slider for the screen, anyone tried this?

    I have one vent under drivers side dash and one on top of dash close to windshield and one on the left side of dash behind the windshield and lexan divider does a great job.

      Sounds like these vents are fitted in all sorts of locations.Gather there doesn't seem to be a factory location from the positions already mentioned in other threads, guess it depends whose fitted them.
      Thanks for your input, will look at all the options and go with the most practical for my setup.

        Here are where I put mine, 1 pullout vent in the walk through starboard side helm compartment, 1 vent coming out of the same compartment under the helm,(Heater is mounted in the same compartment) and the third vent is coming out under the port side observers seat.. The fan control is mounted under the throttle and ballast controls.

          Thanks,
          First two are in similar places to where I had planned.
          Seen the port side seat mentioned in other threads.
          Did you have to run the pipe all around the front or manage to get it under the floor?

            The Dealer Ran the Port side ducting out of the helm compartment through and around the bow compartments over the ballast sac and into and through the Port compartment and installed the vent directly under the observer seat. It still has pretty good air flow even with that long run. All I installed was the pull out vent in the passageway. The kids like that one the best with the windscreen in
