Hi,

I have a Carver 3000s heater and the front cover leaves a lot to be desired. Does anyone know if I can purchase a new cover for this heater? Also, I have read that it is a re-badged Truma 3002, does anyone know if that is true, and would a front panel for one of these fit?

Regards,

Peter

Truma took over Carver around the turn of the century, as to whether a 3002 Truma will fit a 3000 Carver I can't tell you but I know a man that would be able to...

The Carver SPL3002 and 3000 are basically a Truma 3002, so yes a Truma front will fit, albeit, you will need the back surround as the catches are different.

Or, I don't know if Truma still produce their 'retro' Curved front to fit the old back, in which case it's a simple direct replacement.

Either way, you'll need a Truma Control rod as well

petpin and Gary,, you can stiil get the curved front for the SPL 3002,in brown or grey,Truma UK wont deal with you direct so you have to find one of thier suppliers not cheap though £63.97 inc Vat,have a look here on page 18.

petpin,,I think Brayford Leisure are agents for them near you,Tel 01522 686996
but if you go to their site there is a deal finder

Hi all,

 

Many thanks for the advice posted above. I have now contacted Brayford Leisure and am waiting for their reply.

Once more, many thanks for your help.

Thanks Pete,
I made a mistake, I originally said 3000S, I meant 3000 so I've edited my first post, the 'S' version is an all Carver fire which took over from the 3000 in 1994.

So I know the 3000/3000S fire fronts are 'near' identical but not 100% sure they are interchangeable as the piezo igniter is in the control rod on the 3000S. This may present a problem?
