Poor ventilation leads to diesel heater malfunctions. Poor ventilation: Since the density of compressed fuel remains relatively low, a larger volume of fuel is required to release a certain amount of heat. When the internal space of the diesel heater accommodates fuel exceeding its rated capacity, the ventilation (oxygen supply) becomes insufficient. Insufficient oxygen supply: With insufficient oxygen supply, the compressed diesel fuel cannot burn completely, or cannot burn completely within a short time, resulting in a situation where smoke is produced without ignition. To address this, reduce the amount of fuel placed at one time, improve the ventilation system, and appropriately increase air vents.
