Frequently asked questions.

DOES IT CRACK THE WINDSCREEN OR DAMAGE IT?
NO. See tech page for details.

I HAVE A HEATED WINDSCREEN, WHY DO I NEED A HEATED WASH SYSTEM?
A heated wash system is 25 times faster in clearing a frozen windscreen. A heated windscreen does not allow you to wash/wipe your screen when the temperature is below freezing.

DO I STILL NEED TO USE SCREEN WASH?
The use of windscreen wash is still recommended to achieve optimum performance.

HOW DO I STOP THE WATER BOTTLE / RESERVOIR FREEZING?
In extreme temperatures, it is essential that the correct screenwash (fit for purpose) is used in conjunction with Heatshot, to ensure the resevoir does not freeze. Heatshot will reccommend suitable screenwash, to deliver the maximum efficency and safer driving.

CAN I INSTALL THE SYSTEM MYSELF?
Yes. A demo video available with full written instructions provided with each unit. It should take no more than an hour to fit a Heatshot unit. (Heatshot can be fitted by any garage).

 

DOES IT EFFECT MY INSURANCE/ WARRANTY?
No. The unit does not interrupt the vehicle management system and does not alter the engine performance of the vehicle therefore should have no bearing on either of the above.

WHERE IS THE UNIT INSTALLED?
Within the engine bay between washer bottle and washer jets. (See demo video or gallery for examples)

 

CAN IT BE FITTED TO ANY VEHICLE?
To date, Heatshot Ltd have not found any vehicle we cannot fit it to.

Specifications

Heatshots system cleans ice, snow, and grime off the windscreen conveniently & efficiently. It is safe for you, safe for your car. The heater fluid will not burn you, crack the windscreen, or dull the finish. You can say goodbye to scraping, defrosting and defogging. The heated windscreen wash system (On-Demand) model that we are selling is designed to dramatically improve the performance of the washer system. The unit provides heated fluid when the factory washer system is used. It's easy installation is targeted for DIYers. This is how the Heatshot system operates in "On-Demand" mode: The unit starts to operate when the ignition is on (engine running) and battery voltage level is higher than 13.0 volts. Once the unit is activated, the washer fluid inside its heating chamber will be heated and kept within pre- determined temperature limits (125 – 135°F), so there is always hot fluid inside the unit's heating chamber which can be used by a driver for cleaning the windscreen. Each time the driver activates the factory installed washer system, heated washer fluid is applied to the windscreen for approximately the first 3 seconds of spray. Three seconds of the spray delivers approx. 50-60 cc of fluid that is considered sufficient amount of fluid for one spray. The next portion of heated washer fluid is available in 10-20 seconds (depending on ambient conditions). In extreme temperatures, it is essential that the correct screenwash (fit for purpose) is used in conjunction with Heatshot, to ensure the resevoir does not freeze. Heatshot will reccommend suitable screenwash,to deliver the maximum efficency and safer driving. The unit uses full power of 50 Amps for 30 seconds to heat the washer fluid up to pre-determined temperature limits (125 – 135°F), and minimal power to keep it within these limits. The unit's power consumption is less than 2 Amps per hour. Once the unit starts to operate (engine is running), it will heat the washer fluid in approximately 30 seconds; driver operates the washer system manually to spray the heated fluid onto the windscreen. Recommended duration of spray is 3 seconds. Driver can spray as many times as he wants. Best results are achieved when time intervals between sprays are approx. 20 seconds.
