The BU-1000-0-12 Cab Heater is built for mobile equipment that needs strong heat output in a compact package.
It delivers 35,000 BTU/hr of heat with 430 CFM airflow, making it a practical choice for trucks, agricultural equipment, construction machines, forestry equipment, and specialty vehicles.
This version uses a rear-exit airflow layout and a compact cabinet that can fit under seats, along bulkheads, or near custom mounting locations.
To match different installation needs, this product is set up with selectable options. Choose the version that best fits your cab layout: feet, bezel, or plenum.
Configuration Options
Select the option that matches your installation:
- Feet: Helps support floor or bracket mounting.
- Bezel: Provides a cleaner finished opening where the heater outlet passes through a panel.
- Plenum: Helps direct outlet air into ducting or a specific airflow path.
Choose the configuration based on mounting location, outlet style, airflow direction, and cab layout.
Performance and Design
The BU-1000-0-12 uses a 12V, 3-speed blower to move warm air through the cab.
Its compact rear-exit design makes it useful when space is limited but airflow still matters.
The cabinet has a black powder-coated finish for durability.
The heater also uses 5/8 in. heater hose connections for coolant flow.
Installation
Before ordering, confirm available space, heater hose routing, electrical requirements, and the outlet configuration you need.
This heater is rated at approximately 16 amps at 13.6 VDC.
The wiring callouts include MIN+, MOTOR+, and MAX+ leads for the 3-speed blower.
If using the no-mount shell or a custom installation, verify the mounting pattern before installation.
The supplied mounting reference includes four 1/4-20 threaded holes on a 2.75 in. x 2.75 in. pattern.
