Environmental Protection
Recycle unwanted materials instead of disposing of them

Although this heater operates with
diesel fuel, when the temperatures
are below 0°C, diesel additives are
required to maintain the diesel's
viscosity. Typically diesel can cloud
in freezing conditions and will start to
gel. You will need additives for your
fuel in these conditions.
Kerosene/Paraffin does not start to
gel until the ambient temperature is
around -40°C.
