HEATING SYSTEM
Webasto Hydronic Heating System
Eloise is equipped with a 45k Btu Hydronic heating system. Hydronic heating is much the same as you find
in your car. Meaning that it is a closed system where coolant runs throughout a series of lines to radiators
where fans then blow across coils providing heat.
There are four heating units located in the following areas:
1.
Under the forward v-birth. Fans blow heat out through a vent behind the small louvered door by the
floor and through a small vent located in the forward head. The fan controls are located below the
port side bunk.
2.
Two units in the main salon. One with a heat and return air vent under the step to the starboard door,
and the other under the aft salon seat. This also has a heat and return air vent. The fan control for the
unit under the step is located under the thermostat next to the starboard door exit. The fan control
for the unit locate under the salon seat is on the port side of the seat by the entrance to the master
stateroom.
3.
The last unit is located under the stairs leading to the master stateroom. There is a vent under the
stairs, one vent in the main shower and one in the main head. The fan control is on the starboard side
of the stairs in the master room.
In addition to the heating units there is an expansion tank located under the black inspection port located in
the corner of the main salon seat and an Everhot tank for hot water located next to the electric water tank on
the port side engine room.
