This is a 75mm ducting set for diesel air heaters. It costs £17.59 and comes with everything needed to run warm air to two places. The kit has 9 pieces and weighs 495g.
What does it do? The Y/T piece takes the hot air from one heater outlet and splits it between two ducts. Each duct ends in a vent. The Afenau diesel heater ducting set suits 2kW, 5kW and 8kW heaters and works with Eberspacher, Webasto and Propex units.
In the box you get 2 ducts, 2 air outlet vents, 1 Y/T piece and 4 hose clips. The ducts are aluminium foil and stretch from 50cm to 100cm.
Aluminium foil ducts - The two ducts are made of aluminium foil with a 75mm diameter. Foil handles high temperatures and does not corrode. That matters because heater air gets hot and damp air can rust cheaper materials. Each duct starts at about 50cm and stretches to 100cm, so you can fit it to your layout.
Y/T piece splitter - The black plastic Y/T piece has a 75mm inner diameter. It divides the warm air from one outlet into separate paths. Why bother? One outlet normally heats one spot. Splitting it lets you warm two areas, such as a cab and a rear section. The kit also lets you connect up to 3 hoses.
Wide heater compatibility - The set is made for 2kW, 5kW and 8kW diesel air heaters. It suits Eberspacher, Webasto and Propex warm air ducting. So will it fit your heater? If the outlet is 75mm, yes. People use it in cars, trucks, boats and agricultural or industrial machinery. It also replaces old or damaged pipes.
Rotating vent outlets - Both black plastic vents are 75mm. The panel turns 360 degrees, so you can point warm air at a seat, a window or a work area. Pointing it matters because heat spreads unevenly in vans and cabins. The front panel also comes off, which gives you access to the screw holes for mounting.
Four chrome hose clips - The metal clips fit 75mm ducting and hold the pipes onto the Y/T piece and vents. That keeps hot air from leaking at the joints. One reviewer called the clip quality questionable but said they work. They gave 4 stars for that reason. You may want spares for heavy use.
Quick installation - The parts push and clamp together, so fitting does not take long. You add the Y/T piece to an existing system and run the ducts to the vents. A reviewer called the 75mm pipes flexible and secure once clipped. The item holds 4.8 stars from 59 ratings and 82% are 5 star.
Every part is 75mm (7.5cm) in diameter. That covers the ducts, the vents, the Y/T piece and the clamps. Your heater outlet needs an inner diameter of 75mm. Measure it before ordering if you are unsure.
The listing says it suits 2KW, 5KW and 8KW diesel air heaters. It names Eberspacher, Webasto and Propex warm air ducting. The Y/T piece is also listed for ATC heaters. Many cheaper diesel heaters use the same 75mm outlet, but the listing does not name them, so measure yours.
The Y/T piece lets you connect three hoses at the same time. It splits warm air flow in the heater into separate paths. You can also use it as an additional outlet on an existing system. The kit gives you two ducts, so a third needs buying separately.
Each duct is about 50cm when compressed. It stretches to about 100cm. The material is aluminium foil with a 75mm diameter. A reviewer said the ducting extends well. If you need a longer run to the rear of a van, you may need extra duct.
Yes. The vent front panel can be removed to reach the screw holes for fixing. Once it is installed, the panel can be rotated 360 degrees. That lets you aim the warm air at a bed, a desk or a windscreen without moving the vent.
The ducts are made of aluminium foil. The listing describes them as high temperature resistant and corrosion resistant. It does not give a maximum temperature in degrees. Keep that in mind if your set-up has ducts close to the heater outlet.
You get four chrome metal clamps. One 4 star reviewer said the quality is questionable but they do work. They would have given five stars with better clips. Another reviewer said the pipes fit securely with the clips included. If you want extra peace of mind, a spare set of 75mm clamps costs very little.
Yes. Free returns are available and there is a 30-day right of return. The item needs to be new and unused. You start the return from your orders, choose a return method and send it back. The listing says you can get a full refund with no deduction for return shipping.
This is the Afenau X00156 diesel heater ducting set. It has a Y piece (also called a T piece) that splits the warm air from a diesel air heater into more than one outlet. The set has 9 pieces: 2 warm air ducts, 2 air outlet vents, 1 Y/T piece and 4 hose clamps. Every part is made for ducting with a 7.5cm diameter. It is listed on Amazon.co.uk for £17.59 including VAT.
The warm air ducts are made from aluminium foil. The listing says the foil resists high temperatures and corrosion and is easy to handle. The Y/T piece and the vents are black plastic. The four hose clamps are chrome metal. The Amazon spec table lists the main material as aluminium. The product description says the Y/T piece and vents are plastic.
Each warm air duct is about 7.5cm across. It is about 50cm long when compressed and extends to about 100cm. The Y/T piece and the vents are also about 7.5cm in diameter. The Y/T piece suits ducting with an inner diameter of 7.5cm. The clamps are about 7.5cm in diameter too. The set measures 8 x 25 x 20cm as packed and weighs 0.495kg.
The Y/T piece lets you connect 3 hoses at the same time. It adds extra outlets to an existing heater system and splits the hot air flow from the heater. The listing says it can be fitted quickly.
The vents suit 7.5cm warm air ducts. The front panel comes off so you can reach the screw holes when fixing the vent in place. The panel rotates 360 degrees so you can point the warm air where you want it.
The set is mainly for 2kW 5kW and 8kW diesel air heaters. The listing names Eberspächer Webasto and Propex heaters and ATC heaters for the Y/T piece. It can be used for heating cooling and ventilation. Listed uses include:
It can also replace old or damaged heating pipes.
The product has 59 ratings on Amazon.co.uk and the reviews seen are mostly positive. One reviewer said the 7.5cm pipes are flexible and fit securely with the clips.
