I was looking at a 5kw but actually our heater is only 2kw as it is and more often than not is only on 1kw.

We suggest you may wish to upgrade from 2kW to 4kW heater kit if the campervan is a hightop long wheel base or large campervan. This could be put though a little panel on the back of the seat base to hide the heater away (please note this panel is not included in the kit but then vent to do so is included).
