Convenient Heat for Your RVs, Cabin or Home

Camco Olympian Wave heaters are designed and built to provide years of comfortable, radiant heat and economical LP Gas consumption. Olympian heaters produce mostly radiant heat as a result of a flameless catalytic combustion process. Its efficiency is high because combustion takes place at relatively low temperatures. The wavelength of the radiant heat produced by Olympian heaters is particularly effective for creating a feeling of warm comfort similar to solar radiation.

The sun is an excellent example of radiant heat transfer, because it transmits energy through space, releasing heat when its rays strike objects and people. Like the sun, Olympian heaters radiate heat directly to people, floors, walls and other objects without heating the air first, so warmth is felt immediately. Radiant heat is absorbed by objects and then emitted into the air to heat the surrounding area. Therefore, your Olympian heater should be oriented to direct its heat rays toward the space to be heated, much like a floodlight is positioned to illuminate a desired area.

Safe, Clean Efficient Propane

Camco Olympian Wave heaters utilize safe, clean efficient HD-5 propane gas. Heaters are designed to operate with a manifold pressure (the gas pressure downstream from the appliance controls) of 10.5" w.c. (0.38 psig). A gas supply pressure of 11" w.c. (0.40 psig) minimum is required at the heater controls. In addition, the supply line must be equipped at the cylinder with a listed low pressure LP regulator set to deliver the specified pressure. To ensure that you are getting a quality product, each Olympian Wave heater undergoes rigorous safety, performance and quality assurance testing before leaving the factory with the end goal to produce a product that delivers years of trouble-free service.

5.0 out of 5 stars Super nice heater for Popup Campers, Travel Trailers, and RV's, August 28, 2008

This review is from: Camco 57341 Olympian RV Wave-6 6000 BTU LP Gas Catalytic Heater (Automotive)
I purchased the Olympian Wave 6 Catalytic Heater during the summer of 2007, for use in our 1987 Starcraft Nova Popup Camper. The camper has an 11' box, so it's a fairly large camper when opened up. I had already installed an OEM Duo-Therm forced air furnace. It worked great, but the blower fans in these furnaces are noisey, use alot of 12 volt battery power, and the furnace itself uses quite a bit of propane. Every time that furnace turned on, it would wake us up. Then we'd lay there listening to the blower run for 10-15min. When it finally shut off, instead of being able to go back to sleep, we'd still be awake, anticipating the next cycle.

The Wave 6 Heater is an amazing heat source and fits the use in this camper perfectly. I purchased the feet for it, as well as the available protective cover for storage (I highly recommend you buy the cover because you must keep the platinum catalytic mat clean). I had a 10' flexible rubber propane hose made and T'd that into... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Dust problem, October 25, 2010
This review is from: Camco 57341 Olympian RV Wave-6 6000 BTU LP Gas Catalytic Heater (Automotive)
We bought this heater for our travel trailer. We enjoy "dry camping" (no power or water) in the the desert during the winter and needed a heat source that does not run down our batteries. The heater is ideal from that respect. It does not require a blower and it does not use power to control the flame.

It worked well for us at first. After a month or so of regular use we noticed that it started to smell and then our carbon monoxide detector alarm sounded in the middle of the night warning of carbon monoxide levels high enough to kill. (Wouldn't you know it, it was the coldest night we ever experienced in the desert, -18 degrees!!)

Camping often means dusty conditions. It is not stated in the on-line specifications or mentioned in the reviews or in the manufactures description that this heater is not suitable for dusty conditions. Only by careful reading of the operation manual can this be discovered. We went ahead and installed the heater hoping that... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE This Heater, Sips Propane, Requires No Battery, August 16, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Camco 57341 Olympian RV Wave-6 6000 BTU LP Gas Catalytic Heater (Automotive)
Great heater for my application which is providing both heat and maintaining heat within my Pop Up camper. Like a previous reviewer I recommend the accessories such as the Camco 57701 RV Black Wave Heater Leg Stand - Pack of 2and Camco 57713 RV Wave Heater Dust Cover. This allows your Wave 6 to stand on it's own and the cover protects it when not in use. I've used this heater in 26 degree Fahrenheit. Granted at 26 degrees It was getting help from my OEM propane furnace, but I used the Wave 6 to maintain the heat so as to lengthen the duration between the furnace running as it uses so much more propane and drains the batteries. The Wave 6 sips propane and requires no electricity. During... Read more
