Once the RV Industry exceeded the 40 Gallon holding tank capacity barrier back in the mid to late 1990s, we designed the Model 2400 tank heater. Intended to be used on RV holding tanks with maximum capacities up to 75 Gallons (284 Liters), this heat panel made it possible to retrofit any RV using these enlarged holding tanks with an anti-icing system if it wasn’t ordered with this UltraHeat option directly from the RV factory.
This Model is still widely used and sold in the retail aftermarket today, offering standalone protection from freezing of correctly sized heat panels to RV holding tanks down to our design benchmark of -11°F (-24°C), fully exposed and hanging onto the bottom of tank.
Enclosing RV underbellies was just an emerging idea around this time, so this tank heater was and still is equipped with a thicker, closed cell foam backing to repel both water and road debris kick up. Like all of our UltraHeat RV Tank Heaters, this model has a built-in sensor to monitor and maintain the holding tank fluids between approx... 44°F and 64°F (6.6° & 17.7°C), once powered up under the two conditions of colder freezing weather conditions and with fluid present within the tank.
Like all of our other RV heaters, this panel has an easy peel-n-stick backing using our proprietary adhesive formula, designed not to breakdown and ultimately fail and release like most on the market, in fact ours increases its adhesion properties in the ageing process. The method in which our adhesive is applied also gives it a stronger molecular concentration, far superior to the secondary adhesion process most commonly used. All reasons which is why we are not surprised to hear of reported heat panels still attached and functional after decades of use.
