Hnl1/I/16.8.32. We have obtained a Clayton Dewandre Heater, but so far have only carried out tests to determine whether it is satisfactory electrically. The tests are promising and we will immediately fit it up on a car, and if it is still good, will let you see the unit installed. We are afraid that the recent long spell of warm weather has made us forget heaters; we will however get on with the job straight away and let you know the results within the next fortnight.
