We are thinking of many different ways to heat our bus and here is
one we might try. We will place some coils of copper pipe wherever
the hottest logical spot is in or around the engine compartment.
Then we will run some insulated tubing up to the fresh air intake in
front of the cabin. A radiator small enough to fit inside the big
"air distrubition chamber" will be located here. Then the return
tubing with the cooler water (or antifreze) will have the inline pump
(maybe a strong bilge pump) that does most of the work.

cold -> -> -> = ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ warm

Please, go ahead and tell us what is wrong with this idea.
We installed one of those inline blowers, but we opted for the
larger (4inch) model. This one puts out 230cfm, but draws 3.8amps.
The price was $16.99 (40 cents more than the 3inch, but we gained an
extra 90cfm)
