Notes:
Start your engine easier and warm your cab faster in cold weather with this frost-plug-style engine block heater. Heating your engine coolant keeps it from thickening and freezing, resulting in more reliable start-ups and smoother operation altogether. It also lessens the workload and extends the life of your vehicle's battery. And because starting your engine when it's warm creates less condensation in the engine block than starting it when it's cold, your engine will get better initial fuel vaporization, which causes fewer emissions and less pollution.
This frost-plug heater replaces the core plug in your engine block. The power cord on the heater is removable so that you won't need to buy a whole new heater if the cord gets damaged. The cord can be routed through your grille for easy access to a 120-volt outlet or extension cord. If needed, a longer or shorter cord (sold separately) can be purchased to better fit your application. Make sure the heating element is fully submerged in the coolant before plugging it in.

So that's gonna result in smoother startups, so less wear and tear on your engine and cold weather. As you probably know, heating your engine coolant keeps it from thickening and freezing, resulting in more reliable startups and smoother operation altogether. It also lessens the workload and extends the life of your vehicle's battery. And because starting your engine when it's warm creates less condensation in the engine block than starting it when it's cold, your engine will get better initial fuel vaporization, which is gonna cause fewer emissions and less pollution. You wanna make sure that you don't use this heater with 100% antifreeze solution, and you don't wanna start your engine with the heater plugged in.
Now the power cord on this heater is removable, so you won't need to have have to buy a whole new heater if for whatever reason this cord gets damaged. This cord can be routed through your grill for easy access to a 120 volt outlet or extension cord. If needed, a longer or shorter cord is sold separately and that can be purchased to better fit your application. You do wanna make sure that the heating element is fully submerged in the coolant before plugging it in. This is made here in the USA of corrosion resistant brass.
It is CSA approved. Instructions are included. And the wattage, in case you were wondering, is 400 watts, and the amperage is 3.3 amps. Well, that's gonna wrap up our quick look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you.
