Cabin Heater Instructions

[pilot5173]

AvDES, this is exactly what I was thinking of doing. The computer fans just aren't cutting it. Do you have any pics of the firewall/engine side of this installation? ...and I'd definitely be interested in one of the shrouds!

...Cover the shroud inlet at the firewall much like Cessnas do with a small sliding piece of aluminum plate and you have a cable driven on/off for your heater and it consumes zero additional power and pulls heat out from under the cowl.

I have about 4 more of these shrouds cut (not bent) that I could get out to anyone that’s interested

It appears I didnÂ’t take a photo after completing the hole in the firewall. IÂ’ll snag one tonight and post it. I didnÂ’t end up going with the sliding aluminum flap - I have a ball valve on my heater core that allows me to shut off coolant flow to the heater so the air coming through the tube kinda just keeps my toes cool in the summer haha. Ill try to get a few different angles of photos for you. Shoot me a private message to discuss the shroud if you are still in need.
