Bunk Heater

About:

We install Espar Diesel and Gas bunk heaters with integrated high altitude kits and variable speed fans. Our installations are a bit different than others. Having experience in fuel system design in the trucking industry, we properly route, secure and armor the fuel lines at installation. Then, we tap into the vehicles factory fuel tank port ensuring that the heater ‘stand pipe’ will always leave a few gallons in the tank. This, along with the low voltage cutoff, ensures that you will both have enough fuel and battery to start your vehicle and get home after your adventure.

The heater is controlled via an Espar EasyStart Pro Timer Thermostat Controller, which installs cleanly into the Roost Vans Power Panel and switch plate. Typically the heater unit is installed under the front passenger seat, but custom installation options exist.

Both gas and diesel models are domestically sourced from our trusted vendors and will be servicable for years to come by authorized Espar service center in the states. This is not always the case with many ‘overseas’ Espar sale options.

Power System

Core Electrical Work: 

The bulk of the electrical work is done previously during the core build.  We’ve run the charge lines and end use points to a central panel, pre-wired and ready to go.  This provides a plug and play solution with all the behind the panel work done and ready for connection to a power system. From here, you can choose what size power system you’d like. Work with our sales team to find the right size for you.

Integrated Goal Zero Yeti System:

Our standard control panel (included in core electric work done during core build phase) is plug and play ready for the Goal Zero Yeti (models 1500x).  With the Roost to Goal Zero connection cables, your van electrical system is ready to be powered!

Traditional Lithium Ion Battery Array and Charging Systems:

The Yeti units offer the most economic and comprehensive solutions, and meet the needs of 90% of our clients.  However, some van owners have very specific power needs that exceed or are incompatible with the Yeti solution.  In these cases we can build a custom battery array with any number of additional modules (AC>DC charger, DC>DC charger, Solar Charge Controller, Inverters, Battery Monitors, etc…).

Pricing:

Goal Zero Yeti

  • Goal Zero Yeti 1500x – $1800
  • Goal Zero Yeti 3000x – $3500

Custom Power System:

  • Typically includes Lithium Ion Battery Array with AC>DC, DC>DC, and Solar charger controllers.
  • Can also include inverter, battery monitor, or additional units.
  • Requires a cabinet enclosure (not included in above price range)
  • Price Can Range Between $5-20k+ depending on size, components, needs, and complexity. This is a big reason 90% of our customers choose the Goal Zero Yeti Power Station for their builds.

 

Swivel Seats

About:

If your van did not already come with swivel seats, we strongly recommend them.  It allows the cab seating (Driver and Passenger seats) to swivel 180 degrees, adding additional seating facing into living area of the van build.  This is a great use of limited living space, and when combined with a post or articulating arm table can offer a multitude of seating options utilizing the cab of your van.  

Pricing:

  • $1150 each or $2200 for pair (Driver and Passenger).  Includes Installation.

 

Post & Arm Tables

About:

We build a custom tabletop out of 3/4″ bamboo finished with Osmo-X, and installed with a removable fixed post, or articulating arm.  This is a great way to add a tabletop surface to driver/passenger swivel seats and/or 2nd row seating.  The combination can provide a small dining room table complete with seating.  

 

Pricing:

  • $650 to $1250
  • Price varies on table size, mounting options, and if additional bracketing or supports are required for the application.
