Heating solutions for
buses
Reliable heat for front and passenger compartments in minibuses, midi buses, city buses and coaches
To maintain comfortable cabin temperatures for drivers and passengers throughout the journey, Webasto air and water heaters reliably heat all areas of the bus before and during the journey. Thanks to optional engine preheating, the buses are always ready for use so that timetables can be adhered to even in difficult climatic conditions. Webasto offers a broad portfolio of heaters for demanding applications. We can equip buses of all sizes and for any application, offering customizable complete solutions. Retrofitting is carried out by our installation partners in your area, which you can find using our dealer locator. In electrically powered vehicles, our powerful, compact high-voltage heaters provide the heat.
Heating solutions for fuel-powered buses
Webasto water heaters preheat the coolant circuit of the vehicle engine even before the journey begins, to support engine warm-up and preparation for operation - even at temperatures well below zero degrees. This hepls reduce emissions associated with cold starts. The air in the front area is also heated by the vehicle fan. The Webasto water heaters recommended for buses are available with heating outputs between 9 and 35 kW. Our air heaters from the Air-Top range are designed for cabin heating across a range of vehicle applications. Their heat output can be selected between 2 and 5.5 kW per device. Several devices distributed in the vehicle can be combined.
For both the air and water heaters, Webasto offers a wide range of applications and accessories for individual original equipment and retrofit solutions. Additional hoses, distributors and air outlets ensure optimum heat distribution. The heaters can be integrated into 12 and 24 V environments and also heat with alternative fuels such as HVO and GtL. Depending on the choice of devices, various control elements are available, such as the smart ThermoConnect app. In addition to the air and water heaters, Webasto offers integrated heat exchangers for using residual engine heat to heat the vehicle interior. Various models offer heating outputs from 3.3 to 13 kW.
Product fuel-operated heaters for buses
Heating solutions for electrically powered buses
Our high-voltage heaters (HVH) with heating outputs between 5 and 12 kW ensure pleasant temperatures in electric buses. The space-saving devices convert electrical direct current into heat with virtually no losses (more than 95 percent). All models are ISO 21434-compliant, but differ in terms of voltage and communication interfaces. Electric high-voltage heaters from Webasto not only heat the front and passenger compartments, but can also provide optimum temperature control for traction batteries. Maintaining the battery within its intended temperature range supports battery performance, depending on operating conditions.
