This time we're plumbing in our campervan hot water system using the Bobil Vans heat exchanger kit, so we have fast (and cheap!) hot water for our shower!

With this kit we can heat our water using the hot air from our Chinese diesel heater, or from solar using any excess charge once our batteries are topped up. Or just from driving down the road too!

In part 1 we setup the Bobil Air Xchange for a quick trial run, now it's time to get it all connected up to the shower and see how fast it can heat the water...and how cheaply. We spent some time putting it to the test!

Thanks for watching! Any comments or questions? Let us know below!
