Do you want the luxury of instant and continuous hot water when camping or fishing? Make it a certainty with a Helton heat exchanger fitted to your vehicle. Enjoy hot water for showers, washing dishes and parts or just washing dirty hands after a long day on the trail. A must have for long trips, children, wives and girlfriends. Install is easy and can be completed in under an hour in most installs.

Cruiser Outfitters is proud to be bringing Helton Heat Exchangers and Helton Hot Water Showers to the United States. These kits are in stock and ready to ship!

Which kit is right for you?

The hot water kit will bring the water near the operating temp of the vehicle, so around 180° F (more likely 160° F). However it includes a temperature regulator valve to control the output so it can be used for a shower. Ideal for cleaning dishes and other extended hot water needs. The shower kit is capable of heating water ~40° F degrees per pass, so if you are pulling water at ~50° F degrees, it will heat it to ~90° F degrees. If the water isn't quite warm enough on the first pass, simply run the water on a second pass. Great for the "set it and forget it" type.

These kits are packaged together as noted above. Please note that while we can sell individual parts, the prices will reflect those shown below and not as a deduction from the kit pricing. Also please note that some components can only be sold as an assembly, for example the shower head & pump units are only sold together, and that kit includes the bag. So if you are using your own pump but will need a shower head or are interested in the storage bag, please contact us for special arrangements as this is not generally offered ala carte.

*Kits do NOT include the 1/2", 5/8", or 3/4" hose & hose clamps you will need to complete the installation. This can easily be purchased at a local auto parts store for under $5. Additionally kits do not include any mounting provisions as these are often vehicle specific or require some degree of customization. We do offer rubber insulated mounting clamps, Part#HELCLAMP shown below. Kits do require some mechanical background for installation. Call or email for more information prior to ordering kit.

**Please specify your size of heater hose when calling. We have 3/4" and 5/8" T-Connectors available for your coolant lines.
