On Board Hot Water for Shower
Has anyone put a Glind or similar Hot Water System on a Patrol with Climate Control?
I dont see any issue but I would like to check that there are no known issues with the setting of the water temperature with the climate control temperature dial instead of the old slide lever ....
Thanks
Mic

I can't see it being an issue. Once the system is full of water it shouldn't change anything...
I can see it affecting the heating effectiveness while using the shower, but you can't use both at once...

I have fitted mine into my bullbar up behind the numberplate.
What I am confused about is the best way to plumb it in.
Does anyone know on the 3L CRD is it the top hose or the bottom out of the firewall that flows out from the heater?

They are not 'needed' but it sure is nice to have a hot shower after a muddy/dusty day of 4wding.

I went up Fraser last year for 10 days and it got well used then. Also when I go up teerwah beach camping it means the missus can have a hot shower. I love going surfing in winter then going up to the car park and having a steaming hot shower in front of everyone that is freezing.

I connected mine in parallel. So if you want really hot leave the heater off if you want it cooler turn the heater on and it will by pass the shower. That was the theory anyway. I have found the engine slightly above idle is the perfect temp anyway.
