"Just ignore the smoke". I fng love this guy. Ive had one of these heaters for 5 years and I got tons of help from your videos. These heaters are improving a lot of people's quality of life and you're contributing to that. With all the b.s. out there...this is quality genuine non bias family friendly programing. Nicely done

You see we in Australia don't have any problems with the ticking noise a Chinese diesel heater pump make, it just sounds like the rythmic ticking of the electric fence units we use to keep the Salt Water Crocodiles away at night, and generally it sends us off to the land of Nodd in minutes.

That's a good innovation! I find the ticking kind of reassuring, knowing the heater is still working! Then again, maybe I'll drop James a line!

Awesome vid on an awesome product. I bought one of the prototypes a few months back as James was just getting started, a complete gentleman to deal with. I run my 5kW workshop heaters on kerosene so between us we were able to prove his new pump internals stood up to both fuels and changing viscosities with temperature. Must have run at least 100 litres by the end of my testing so a thorough test IMHO - and a quiet one to boot ! Thanks for all the vids David, you've been a massive help to me in my workshop diesel hearter shenanigans.

After a year with this pump it’s amazing no noise at all on the 2nd gen pump James does I still chat with him by email when setting new heaters up He’s a great guy the after sales he does are brilliant top man I have my pump in the garage of the motorhome so basically under the bed direct below the pillow lol no noise or ticking I only hear the heater on start up I can leave the heater on all night with temp settings to come on when temps drop I invested in a ignite challenger controller too so I can turn the heater on when I’m out brilliant

I had one of the first prototypes of this silent diesel pump installed by the inventor himself and it's still working coming into the second winter of use.

I will have one but give the poor chap time to catch up on the influx of orders lol. .....I can just see some chinese firm copying it but just don't buy them...this guy obviously talented and I'm willing to pay for that price, I hope others follow my suit.

My dog comes over and wags his tail at the start of your vids haha. Fascinating bits you find to talk about. I am very interested in someone's comment who suggested a simple PVC vacuum tube to muffle pump. Sounded silly at first but his idea was actually pretty good and worth more thinking for this problem.

Class bit of kit, just ordered. If Mr M rates it, nothing more to be said!

I'm intending to build an insulated box outside my shed (workshop) to house all the Gubbins except the controller and the hot air outlet tubing so hopefully there will be little or no noise. Also removing the necessity to bring diesel into the shed. 👍 😎

Adding a mass to the standard pump is the best way to absorb and disperse the noise. I've tried a lot of different materials foam etc, and the heavier silicon sealant was the winner !

Bought one last week and waiting to arrive. My normal pump is suspended underneath and is reasonably inaudible inside. I want it to be silent outside as well though. For those complaining about the price - it's a bespoke product handmade. It's not going to be as cheap as a Chinese factory made product like the diesel heaters, which are a bargain we can all agree. Compare to an eberspacher/webasto pump and suddenly it becomes cheap.

I saw one video where the guy screwed a cup hook into the wood above, then suspended the fuel pump using a tie wrap ( or some people call it a zip tie ) from the cup hook. The tie wrap went through the bracket mounting hole in the fuel pump. After that it was completely quiet. It was amazing!

One day I will have a camper van or a shack in the woods and when I do this will be the pump I will use with my Chinese diesel heater, I run a heater in my wee workshop and when I start it up that clicking pump pesters me and I could well imagine what it would be like if you was trying to get to sleep 🙉 that silent pump is a work of art and I bet the man making them is inundated with with orders , I do hope the man does very well out of this ingenious invention.

I for one am happy to see that you've piped the exhaust OUTSIDE. I always got a wee bit queasy when it was blowing inside the shed. Good on ya.

I was wondering the other day why not use a peristaltic pump, you answered the question 😆 Edit: watch full video 1st, very ingenious 👍

For myself and I suspect many others, it's a big job or not feasible to get this pump above their fuel tanks as most have their heaters, pumps and tanks close to their van floor. Very impressed with the quietness. Hopefully syphoning can be over come. 👍

Great Vidio David and clear precise instructions 👍

I’ve run this in my Motorhome all winter, snow and all. Reliable and quiet. Recommended.

Cracking video, blimey it actually works!

Now that is quiet. great vid as always.

Protect this man and foresty forest at all costs

Just waiting on mine to try out in my shed.

received my pump off james installed to day the new model is totally different to the one in the video must say they are a brilliant piece of kit totally worth the money

There's an unusual continuity issue here... There's no orange overalls.. Great video mate 👍

The stock pumps come in a couple displacements. That's probably what the outside pot is for. :)

Can the pump be mounted on its side with the inlet and outlet fuel lines face down, for example on a wall ?

What is that sensor type thing fitted to the front of your heater? (Drilled and presumably tapped into the main heat exchanger casting? Is that your burn temperature sensor?

Just saw this on the foresty forest channel. He couldn't fit and test it as the ambient temperature was too high. He wants to see how it performs in -30c

I mounted my pump outside on the diesel tank...5 years ago. Didn't even know these made any noise until the videos popped up on my "algorithm".

I just had a brain wave. Would this deliever enough fuel for the 16kw hydronic heater ? That way I could buy one as a back up that would fit both my 16kw heater and the 5kw air heater.

Depending on how this pump housing is used the design is great or bad. I think. By that I mean that I think it is a very bad idea to have electronics underneath something that can leak on it. I would be more happy when the electronics would be above the pump and even have a devider screen in between in case something would spray out of the pump in case of a failure. And a small drain hole in the bottom so you would see the leak before it would destroy the electronics after filling the box.

Hey David, could the white filter looking component be an anti siphon valve?

Great video and smart built. Did you test it with the afterburner as well? And if yes, does it keep full functionality (like measuring the amount of fuel used)?

yeah ive ordered a silent pump off James he as fitted a anti syphon so you can fit the pump higher or lower than the diesel tank

Where is the link to purchase this silent pump please? Thanks for yourful videos.

First of all.. love your videos. Maybe install a free DB meeter on your phone to measure the noise?

Have you considered using noise/sound meters when you measure the volume of pumps or exhausts? At a pinch you could use one of the many apps available. That way you can do objective rather than subjective test which are way more valuable.

Very cool! Thankfully the clicking is ok with me.

Which heater have you got and have you got a link for the pump please

Very nice! Hope it's not like sauna in there. Very much a needed upgrade for campers etc or anyone sleeping on top of the heater.

Hi just wondering where I can buy one of these silent pumps

Did you spend good money on pyrojacket hose for your exhaust when I have some lying here at my arse

where can I get this pump. does it suit the China diesel heaters

Got it! There’s one man working in his workshop” sounds like a fight club movie line. “We are all Tyler Durton”!

Where can I find exhaust wrap like that

How about installing the pump inside the tank submerged ? Would this muffle the pulsing ?

Speaking of pumps... anyone know if the chinese heater pumps are less effecient/less percise compared to an actual OEM webasto/eberspacher pump(?) Reason I ask, I'm curious to know if a chinese heater would benefit (a/k/a see increased btu and/or fuel efficiency) if an OEM pump were swapped into a chinese heater(?)

Hello great video would like to purchase one for my bus I have a Eber diesel heater 2kw. Could not find details.. Thanks for your time and help.

I free hung my pump from the fuel lines using zip tie . Cost almost nothing and I can't hear it at all.

Another great video 👍

What happened to afterburner I am new to these CDH and all aprts

Is it possible to run one of these with no controller ?

A diaphragm pump means you can use 100% paraffin full time?

Yo any info on a name brand or possibly where I can purchase one or anything?

its a basic fish tank pump with custom guts and a PLC. Diaphragm pumps are lift only thats why in the us we call them lift pumps the one thing over looked by most is the electronic pulse pump is a fuel injector and a fuel pump all rolled into one thats why it so loud if you could replace it with just a injector or a high frequency pintle valve and a normal vane pump it would be allot quieter but improper installation would pose a fire risk im running an 8kw in a 26' class a my tank is 2' above my heater pump is on center with burn chamber with a 30* pitch hard line go's from tank to pump then from pump 6" sag under heater at night outside -25f. running on high 5mhz with a shell temp of 350f on low 1.5mhz with a shell temp of 170f roughly 1 gal. a night give or take

Nice review of a nice pump. Does it make a different with the silent pump what fuel you use? I’ve been using main,y kero and an odd bit of diesel here and there..

Have you played more with the tuning with this pump? I'm having a little bit of trouble dialing in my previous tune with this new pump.

Great video. Thanks.

Where do I get this pump.

URL to buy that one?

Can you give a link to where to order one Thanks Kel

I wonder about long term durability. Pull chord ICE motors have this type of mechanism (diaphragm run by vacuum) but they eventually age/give out. Not that your typical impeller type pump is immortal or anything.

I just suspended my pump with a cable tie in the air with the rubber mount around it, can’t hear it.

Thanks David but you didn't tell us if the enclosure is suitable for mounting under the vehicle, i.e. totally weatherproof?

Any updates on the reliability of this pump?

Thanks for the video, do you have a link for the red exhaust insulation? I have the wrap type, but I think what you have would be better...

I wonder how much business this video made for him 😊 I’m definitely planning on buying one.

I have been watching your videos on Diesel Air Heater. What type of orange colour exhaust pipe or cover you are using here?

Thanks for your video, how did you know what wire to connect to the pump plug fitting as both wires going into mine are the same colour with no indication of positive and negative?

WOW !!! james is a brilliant dude well done !

I potted my standard pump in silicone (neutral cure, roof/gutter) within a electrical junction box and we can't hear it at night anymore !

Hey Dave, great video.thanks 👍 How do I contact the fella that sells these? Cheers mate, Bailey.

Hello, Thank you for the tuto. Where can we buy the silent pump? Do you have a link please? Thank you.

Does a brushless heater also make any audible difference? I´ve red Webasto, Eberspächer, etc marketing their heaters as brushless and apparently therefore quieter than the chinese?

Dave, what exhaust sleeve are you using there??? Tia

Hi David. I have a question, the heat-resistant cover on the exhaust, is it okay or has it started to burn out? I know that the inside is a braid of fiber and the second orange coat is made of heat-resistant rubber. I ask because I use this coating and it sinters and darkens ps google translate... thanks for the reply

How can we buy the silent pump?

Hello, great video. How does this work with the Afterburner controller, is that potmeter on top to control the speed, if so how can the AB controller control this ?

Great vid.

When General Motors car manufacturer came out with the 1988 Oldsmobile diesel engine for their cars they used a 350 gas engine and converted it to diesel. To get it to start faster on cold days they put in 6-volt glow plugs instead of the usual 12 volts glow plugs. I wonder if you could do the same and reduce the startup time and less amp draw saving on battery-operated power supplies like the Jaberwaky I think it's called.

Link for pump?

Nice work. Cleaver

I have emailed, but the email was returned How do I order one of these pumps please

£99 seems very reasonable considering the parts plus the work which has gone into it

Hi. Can you send to USA? And how much it coast me with shipping? Thanks.

I have a 2kw Webasto gasoline clone heater from JP Parking heaters. Most parts are interchangeable with the webastos. Can he tune the pump to work with this?

Hi Where can I obtain one of your pumps can you please send me details on how to purchase Thanks Terry

HELOOO, Great video as always.

How much more power does the silent pump use compared to the noisy one?

Nice, although this seems a bit overkill to me. I found the best way to mount the pump is have it suspended by the fuel lines an inch back from the pump on either side so the pump itself is floating. That way the hose itself acts to isolate vibrations from the pump (works especially well with soft silicone hose). My pump is barely audible when properly isolated, it's the surface the pump is attached to acting like a speaker cone and amplifying the noise which is normally the issue.

Where do I buy this pump

I know you've been asked a thousand times but is there a "better" Chinese diesel heater to buy. I've just seen they are £71.99 now on fleabay. Love the vids and as a long term boiling bag wearer I understand why you've ditched the Orange apparel. Summer mode

Just bought this pump Am I getting this correct to set up in the motorhome Diesel heater first Pump below the heater Then diesel tank in that order ? I will have the diesel heater screwed to the floor with a turret going threw the floor The pump will be under the van screwed under the floor below the heater Then the fuel line running to the fuel tank even lower then the pump level Is this correct

I need 2 of these for my campers

How do I get one

Just ordered 2 pumps

Nice bit of gear

how much is the pump?

I wonder if you could use a peristaltic pump in a similar way, equally as quite I would think
