Splices into your lower radiator hose to circulate warm coolant through your radiator in the winter. Allows easier start-ups and prevents frozen hoses. Once the engine is on, warm coolant cycles through the heater core to heat your cab faster.

Notes:
Start your engine easier and warm your cab faster in cold weather with this lower radiator hose 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 heater splices into your lower radiator hose to heat your coolant. The heated coolant pushes the cold coolant through the radiator and thermosiphons it back to the heater. The heater's internal thermostat automatically shuts the heater off at 175 degrees Fahrenheit to keep the coolant at an optimal temperature, which allows the heater to operate safely overnight to ensure that no hoses freeze while your vehicle sits. Once you turn the ignition in the morning, your vehicle's water pump will cycle the heated coolant through the engine block and heater core. This will allow for a smooth startup, and it will also help your cab to heat and defrost faster.

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com and today we're gonna take a look at this Kat's Heaters lower radiator hose heater. This lower radiator hose heater is going to preheat your radiator in cold temperatures by heating your coolant and circulating warm coolant. It will keep your hoses from freezing and assist with smoother startups while allowing your cap to heat up and defrost faster. This is going to be an easy installation with the included hose clamps, as you see here. The heater is going to splice into your 2 1/2 inch in diameter lower radiator hose to heat your coolant and the heated coolant is going to push the cold coolant through the radiator and thermosiphons it back to the heater. The heater's internal thermostat automatically shuts the heater off at 175 degrees Fahrenheit to keep the coolant at an optimal temperature, which is going to allow the heater to operate safely overnight to ensure no hoses freeze while your vehicle sits.
Then once you turn the engine, turn the ignition, in the morning, your vehicle's water pump will cycle the heated coolant through the engine block and heater core. You don't wanna use this heater with 100% antifreeze solution. You wanna make sure that you don't start your engine with the heater plugged in. This 5 foot long, three-pronged plug can be routed through your grill and plugged into your standard 120 volt AC outlet or extension cord. This is made here in the USA of a die-cast zinc construction so it feels very strong, very durable.
It is impact and corrosion resistant. This has a wattage of 175, I'm sorry, 750 watts, 750 watts, and this does include installation instructions. Well, that's gonna conclude our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy.
Thank you for joining me..

I finally got the block heater installed instead of the in line one and its much better with the heating process, so just removed the in line one and would like sell it or give it to someone who it would work better for. Guess with it being a 350 engine and a large radiatior for a high performance car it just wasnt enough to keep it warm enough for the short ride to work. Really isnt that cold around here and the block heater seems to work better.
