They have official approval valid in the EU

They offer reliability, quality and benefits Comparable to leading brands

They are suitable for legal installation in vehicles

Thanks to these certificates, a YCSH heating It is a safe and legal option, with the peace of mind of complying with current regulations.
Ways to install a stationary heating
Each one has its pros and cons.
- In the bass of the vehicle within one Skwwiers, to protect it from weather inclement, since with the rain, or the road salt The switchboard could be damaged, And these are not designed to install them abroad as it happens with webasto and Eberspacher.
Will need two large 8cm diameter holes inward, For hot air entrance and exit, These always have to take and leave the air inside, since not doing so could introduce the smoke of combustion inside.. - En the interior of vehicle, They should only be practiced 2 Small holes with 3cm diameter sentences for the admission and exhaust of the air of the internal combustion of the stove itself.
We always recommend installing it inside, In this way you will always be protected from moisture, And the rain.
Modifying the original vehicle fuel circuit
Once installed, either inside, an exterior. We can use the engine fuel feed system, or use the deposit supplied with the installation kit.
With the original vehicle installation
- You can use a sword.
- Connection to the original vehicle feeding system using a T.
The simplest option would be through a t, In this way you do not have to disassemble the fuel deposit, AFORADOR, etc..
External diesel deposit installation
One of the causes indicating that we have to standardize the heating, It is for the modification of the original vehicle fuel feed system.
If we use the external deposit, We will have much less possibilities that the ITV is thrown back, be the model that is, both original and Chinese copy .
Requirements for your approval:
- Workshop certificate. Signed by the workshop carried out by the reform.
- Conformity Report: It is done by the company that performs the approval
- European approval certification CE
- That complies with the regulations R10 and R122.
Are all Chinese stationary heaters approved??
No. Most of the Chinese stationary heaters do not include the necessary documentation for your homologation in Europe, which prevents its legal use in vehicles.
Instead, las YCSH heaters, although they are also manufactured in China, are produced under very high quality standards and yes they have valid official certificates.
These heaters have successfully passed all the essay tests required by the European Union, which allows them to obtain approvals R10 (electromagnetic compatibility) y R122 (thermal and combustion safety).
Therefore, las YCSH heaters are 100% legal for installation and use in vehicles within the European territory.
Hello good. I want to install one abroad. I would have to put a temperature sensor inside?
Good morning Javier.
No, It is not necessary to install any sensor, since the temperature probe is in the control control, regardless of the model that is, digital, analog the LCD.
Personally, I recommend the LCD.
All the best.
Hello, they could tell me if any comes with CE,R10 ,R122 to be able to homologella?.thank you so much!
Hi Nacho.
We are currently only evidence that some suppliers send the European approval certificate, But they do not comply with the R10 and R122 so this type of heating are so economical.
If you want to standard it, you have to go to a brand recognized as webasto or eberspacher, Although its price is x5 times higher. Now you must assess whether it compensates you to take it approved or not.
You can find the Eberspacher here: https://ycomosehace.es/calefaccion-estatica-a-gasoil/calefacciones-estacionarias-webasto-y-eberspacher/
If we have news about it, we will announce it in this same post.

hello good! 2kw's to what van size can be mounted? or from what size you have to mount the 5KW? Noise and consumption varies from one? gracias!
Hi Albert, I always recommend that for models less than L2H2, the 2KW is always mount, And from L2H2 onwards the 5KW.
The minimum consumption of the 2KW model is 0.12L, While 5kw's is 0.18l, The difference is quite small. Regarding noise is practically the same in 2 models. The difference is that with the 5KW you would arrive before temperature and therefore will be less time to 100% which is when more noise makes.
Hi Albert, You can do something so that it does not take so long to go out when you give the off? It takes about 5min. I just put the parameters that you say in the Brico for evil height and dry throat since I am for the Alps and works very well, This configuration then no longer changed it, It is worth both for sea level and more than 2000m.
Many thanks for everything??
Hello Adrian, I'm glad my configuration works well.
Regarding the off, no, You can't do anything to end before, To go out you need 4/5 minutes. Makes a spark plug cleaning process, And you have to finish burning the diesel that is inside. And finally cool.
All the best, And thanks for reading us.
I can make some holes to me Dacia Dokker for expulsion and gas taking? I will not have problems at ITV to make holes to the platform?
Hello Cesar, For the holes nobody will tell you anything.
Where are you going to take the diesel? A small deposit, or vehicle deposit? Yes modify the deposit if they could tell you something.
In very few ITV they put problems, But there is always the possibility. If the deposit does not pierce, It is as simple as disassembling heating in the event that they throw it back, uninstall it is very simple.

Good morning Esteban, I have a Peugeot Boxer that was ambulance and the driving part is separated, of the housing part. I want to put portable stationary heating, And the question I have is that I do with the admission and escape tubes. One idea is to put it on the side of the cabin and make an aluminum template that fits in the passenger window with the glass at half height., to be able to be 100% removable, the other is to make holes in the floor for intake and exhaust, but that the ITV would tell you something or not?.
Thank you very much in advance
Hello Robert, without a doubt the holes in the ground, They won't tell you anything about it on the ITV, If you ask, they are vents.. You can put a brass fitting on them to make them more curious.. Greetings.
Hello, I have bought a portable heater with the black remote control with round buttons and I cannot program the on and off time. ,It's not the same as the ones you see in the videos.,This only has one programming but I can't activate it. If I buy another remote control, you can change the problem?
Gracias
Hello Xavier, I am aware that they have updated the black LCD, it's new, works with another more modern switchboard, It is not possible to change the screen for the old one.
I will post a manual soon here I ordered one recently and it also arrived with that one., unfortunately it arrived broken, and I'm waiting for the replacement so I can mess it up.
Greetings
