Diesel Fired Hob
Manufactured by German company Webasto, a diesel fired hob removes all need for LPG (gas) from your campervan and increases your independence. Flush fitting to the counter top, this glass plate hob looks very similar to a mains electric version that you would find in a domestic kitchen setting. Easy to wipe clean and simple to operate it is extremely efficient on its fuel use, burning a maximum of 0.2 litres of diesel per hour. Omitting LPG from your campervan not only frees you from the dependency on gas cylinder suppliers but also gives you more storage space in the kitchen storage unit.
In the Sanna we would then fit a seperate SMEV sink with an integrated tap and smoked glass lid alongside the hob.
As with domestic mains electric hobs, the unit is less responsive than LPG and around 5 minutes is needed for the hob to heat up fully from first being switched - if you're not in a rush then that's probably not a problem!
The final point to consider is the small amount of diesel fumes that the unit emits from underneath the vehicle on start up and shut down. Although in a wild camping setting this wouldn't be an issue, you may find that on a tight campsite it could be something that your closest neighbours notice.
