Volks -

I have been looking at various heat systems for awhile, and have decided
that I want to hold out for 12000 btu.  Eventually there might be some news
about new PlatCat models, but in the meantime, I ran across something
interesting.

The EuroVan camper by Winnebago uses a Suburban brand heater which fits into
a space about like where the bottom of the closet is in my '87 Westy.

I just looked at Suburban's web site -

http://www.coolcontent.com/TWC/Suburban/Catalog/default.html

and noticed that they have several models that are 9 3/8 x 9 3/8 x 22 1/2.
They don't have pictures, other than the generic one on the selection page,
but it looks as if it might have alternative air input choices.

They aren't cheap, at about $500, but I would like to know more about them.
Have any of you looked at the Suburban in the EuroWinnie?  Any thoughts
about adapting it to a Westy?  Do you know where a wrecked EuroWinnie is :-)

I'll try to get some info from Suburban, but in the meantime, I thought I
would get your thoughts.
