Dantherm VA-M40 MKII – tent heater
Tent heaters
The warm air heater VA-M40 MKII is a mobile 38kW unit primarily developed to provide heating in temporary or transportable buildings or tents.
The VA-M40 MKII operates according to the indirect fired principle meaning that the supply airstream is heated separately from the combustion chamber. This way, the tent is heated with clean air free from combustion products or fumes.
