I’m thinking about adding a catalytic heater in the new camper, and am curious if anyone has real world experience with them.  Here is a link to Platinum Catalytic.

I am kinda interested in the PlatCat heater but suspect that they are pricey; otherwise why would they not put the price on and ability to order on their website.

Like DanoT said, not a heckuva lot of information on that PlatCat website, just the single landing page showing the product on a brick wall. No description of how the "Unique Power Exhaust controls RV moisture buildup and causes automatic room air changes."

If you click on the menu, there is more information, but not all the answers I wanted.  The venting is via a fan that captures the moisture and gasses, and exhausts it outside.

You need to click on the "3bars" app menu to get specs and other info, but they still do not list the price or have online ordering from the webpage.

Others have said it seems like a one man operation and its very difficult to get any info on them. Concept is certainly intriguing.

Seems that it is difficult to get info from them as well.  Not a peep so far.
