Eberspacher Heater Service

[BB1]

Are there any engineers that can service an Eberspacher air heater in the Reading area?

Depending on the age and the work required it may well be worth considering a brand new heater.
The cost of servicing a Eber or Webasto can exceed the cost of a brand new "clone" replacement by a considerable amount.
You could spend £200-300 pounds getting it repaired/serviced and still have a 20 or 30 year old heater .
Lots of caveats about Chinese heaters but worth thinking about.
Fitting can be DIY job as most of the connections ie, fuel and hot air etc are very similar. Proffessional installers will fit these heaters.

There are lots of old threads and info on there. Might be helpful in your decision.

These guys have just started servicing them. I’ve not used them before but do need to get mine serviced ( though it works fine).

Unless they are Eberspacher/Webasto dealers- why kill the golden goose?

Suspect there will be those able to afford the services of the legacy dealers.
As for those with reservations about the connotations involved with buying a Russian heater, do wonder where the components for the Web/Eber stuff are sourced.

Or like us were trapped 2 days before the long Xmas break in a cold snap living aboard in UK with a dead Eberspaecher and the only instant solution being a brand new one of same installed on Xmas eve, otherwise would deffo have been different but would have to find another installer.
