I think these heaters might be overkill for a small vehicle like the
Vanagon, unless maybe you live in Alaska or somewhere where it's really
cold. I have looked at these heaters--they are 3 to 4 times the size of the
Propex and I think would require you to put holes in the side of the van.
The Propex vents through the floor of the van.
