Paul,

I installed a D5 Hydronic in my Sprinter and it runs quiet (with muffler),
dependably and very economically.

If you're near me, I may be able to get you a significant reduction in the
typical price.  I know a fellow who installs the units (been doing so for
years) and he does the u.S. prototypes for them.  He's also a VERY nice
fellow to work with.  I've done business with him three times in the last
year, including last week.  I have no personal gain from the endeavor, JSYK.
