Some notes on the Ford Heaters in this period

  • There are two types of factory heaters in this period; the Magic Aire and a recirculating heater.
  • The recirculating heater did not use the air duct under the fender. It just uses the air in the cab, or as the name implies, recirculates the air.
  • An accessory heater was also available and that was a recirculating heater also. It had 3 doors on the face and was from 1948- 1950 F series trucks.
  • There are two different versions of the Magic Aire, one for 1948-1950 and the other for 1951-1952.
  • The primary difference in 1951 and 1952 is the flapper door.
  • The 1948-1950 had the triangular control bracket and the 51-52 had a straight control bracket. Both mounted under the bottom of the dash.
