The Autoterm 4D Diesel Heater Turns a Freezing Cab Into Somewhere You Actually Want to Sleep

4kW Diesel Heat  |  Heats up to 120m³/h  |  12V  |  Fires down to -45°C  |  3-Year Warranty

It's 3am and you can see your breath. The engine's off, the little fan heater's flattened your battery, and you're lying there in every layer you packed, still cold. Idling the diesel just to take the edge off feels like a mug's game, and that cheap no-name heater you tried last winter spat fault codes and carked it.

The Autoterm 4D sorts that for good. A genuine 4kW of dry diesel heat, sipping as little as 0.21 litres an hour, running straight off your tank and a 12V feed. Set your temperature, roll over, and wake up to a warm cab instead of a cold one.

Why Tradies & Campers Rate the Autoterm 4D Diesel Air Heater

Genuine 4kW, not eBay watts

Every unit is bench-tested cold, then run for 30 minutes to check airflow temperature, emissions and CO² before it leaves the factory. It moves up to 120m³ of warm air an hour, plenty for a big motorhome, a dual-cab cabin, a shed or a boat up to 15 metres.

Sips fuel, spares your battery

On low it draws around 10W and burns roughly 0.21 L/h. It'll run all night off your existing diesel tank without flattening the cranking battery or emptying a gas bottle.

Starts when it's brutal

Reliable firing down to -45°C, with a brushless induction motor built for the long haul. That's the bit where the cheap units quietly give up.

Run it your way

Comes with the digital controller out of the box. Add the optional modem and you can fire it up from your phone by app or SMS before you've even walked back to camp.

The whole install kit's in the box

Full one-outlet kit: fuel pump, ducting, muffler, exhaust, 10m fuel hose, brackets, clamps and the lot. No chasing extra bits to get it mounted.

Not Sure Which Diesel Air Heater Suits You?

Rough rule: the 4D is the one for bigger spaces, large motorhomes, dual-cab cabins, sheds, converted containers and boats up to 15 metres. If you're only heating a small camper, troopy or tinnie, the smaller Autoterm 2D will do the job on less fuel. Not sure? Give us a bell and we'll point you to the right one for your setup.

Autoterm 4D FAQs

How big a space will the Autoterm 4D heat?

The 4D puts out up to 4kW and moves about 120 cubic metres of warm air an hour, so it suits large motorhomes, dual-cab truck cabins, sheds, converted containers and boats up to around 15 metres. For a small camper or troopy, the Autoterm 2D is the better fit.

How much fuel does the Autoterm 4D use?

On low it burns around 0.21 litres an hour, and up to about 0.51 L/h on full power. It runs off your existing diesel tank, so an overnight run only uses a litre or two.

What does Autoterm 4D fault 13 mean?

Fault 13 on the Autoterm controller is generally an overheat or temperature-sensor warning, most often caused by restricted airflow or blocked ducting. Clear the inlet and outlet, let it cool, then restart. The full fault-code list is in the manual linked above.

Does the Autoterm 4D include the fuel pump?

Yes. The 4D ships as a complete one-outlet install kit, including the metering fuel pump and 6m cable, 10m fuel hose, ducting, muffler, exhaust, brackets and fixings, so you have what you need to mount it.

Does the Autoterm 4D come with a controller, and can I run it from my phone?

It includes the digital controller out of the box. Add the optional Autoterm modem and you can run it from your phone by app or SMS, including starting it before you get back to camp.

Is the Autoterm 4D covered by warranty in Australia?

Yes. It comes with a 3-year manufacturer warranty and is genuine Autoterm stock supported here in Australia. Any questions, call True Gear on 0476 330 590.
