Can Velit Diesel RV Heater Heat 288 sq ft Snowmobile Trailer
Updated 02/18/2026 | Published 02/17/2026
Question:
We have a customer who has a custom snowmobile trailer. The square footage of the trailer is 288 sq ft. He takes this to remote locations in Michigan and out west. Would this Diesel heater heat this size of a trailer?

Hey Alan, welcome back! The Velit Diesel RV Heater for Camper Van # VE66QV is capable of heating a trailer that size. However, a major factor in how effective it is will be the insulation on the trailer.
Even with adequate installation it may be pushing it in extreme cold. Since this is a snowmobile trailer it seems like that scenario is likely, so Velit recommends installing a 2nd heater for proper performance.
