The Propex HS2000 Heatsource Furnace is designed especially for automotive and marine applications.
 
The Propex HS2000 is an extremely energy-efficient and economical propane gas fired furnace.  An automatic, thermostatically controlled, blown air heating system offering a source of economical heat totally independent of the engine.
 
Automatic Thermostatic Control
The solid-state electronic thermostat is an easy to fit surface mount design.  It automatically switches the unit on and off to maintain the desired interior temperature.  When the temperature drops below the selected level, the HS2000 will automatically ignite and run until the cabin reaches your ideal temperature.
 
The intelligent electronics use minimal electric current during ignition so cycling the HS2000 on and off does not have the effect of additional battery drain.
 
Safety First
Safety is always our top priority at Propex.  In addition to passing strict European standards the furnace’s intelligent electronics constantly monitor the operation of the heater to make sure everything is operating perfectly.
 
The flame, case temperature, combustion airflow, gas solenoid valve and voltage are scanned continuously.  If a problem is detected the heater will instantly switch off and the red light on the thermostat will flash to let you know there is an issue.
 
Quieter by design
We always choose the finest motors and fans for blown air heaters.  This combined with clever electronics means that any noise is kept to a bare minimum.  You will notice how much quieter a Propex furnace is when compared to a regular space heater.
 
Vehicles and caravans
The furnace is usually mounted in a bed-box or cupboard, flued downwards through the floor and out to the side of the vehicle using the flexible stainless ducting.  The heat is ducted to one or more outlets through tough highly flexible 2.36 inch (60mm) or 3 inch (76mm) ducting.
 
In the case of multi-outlet installations, the first outlet is an open outlet with directional control and the rest are closable and are used in conjunction with the appropriate sized plastic Y-branches.
 
 
Do I need the Propex high altitude model?
Much like when you climb a mountain, combustion heaters need to breathe a little harder at elevation.  With the proprietary modifications we perform in-house, your Propex will run reliably at 9,000… 10,000… 11,000 feet, meaning you’ll have clean, dry heat when you need it most. 
 
If you plan to regularly camp at elevations higher than 7,500 feet (2286 meters), we recommend one of the Van Cafe modified heaters.  Simply select the High Altitude model in the drop down above. The High Altitude model will also run great at sea level so its a win win!
