How does the Biofuel Heater work?
Installing this electric heater ensures that cold weather will no longer bother the operation of your diesel vehicles. Diesel fuel and biofuel can gel as the temperature drops. Paraffin crystals form in the fuel, making it thicker. This can gum up a fuel filter's surface and clog the fuel flow enough as to create a stalling engine. In addition poorly heated fuel causes improper spraying and combustion, creating inefficiency and carbon deposits in the engine. Thicker fuel also puts undue stress on the injection pump. To eliminate this problem, a biofuel heater applies efficient point of use heating to the fuel, thinning it out to operate normally even in extreme cold weather. The device draws under 15 amps and is designed and thoroughly tested for continuous long-term on the road operation.
Which size fits my vehicle?
Most cars have 3/8” (10 mm) fuel line and larger vehicles are more likely to use 1/2” (13 mm). Check your vehicle's manual or under the hood. Asking an auto parts store or your dealership may also help. Can I still use fuel additives?
If you want to, but it will no longer be needed to thin the fuel as the Biofuel Heater will take care of that. Fuel additives can have a negative effect on the engine´s performance and life cycle, plus they must already be added before it turns cold.
Installation?
In an hour or two this device is installed and ready to go. The included installation manual shows very clearly how the device is mounted and smart places to locate it.

Customer Experiences:
“... no more problems with freezing. Because of this experience we will offer the biofuel heater also in the next winter season.”Claus Laackmann Company, agricultural machinery and vehicles
“... we installed and tested several fuel heating systems. We decided to use this one. It is a very safe system, the heating is effective already after a short period of time. Within approximately 1 minute the troublesome smoke, which comes out of the exhaust pipe, vanishes. This is also a contribution to the environmental protection.”Adolf Soehner KG Company, Daimler-Benz Representative“... the busses are always ready for use, even at very low temperatures and after parking in winter sport locations, without using any flow improvement additives.”Kirchweihtal Town Council“... no longer problems with fuel gelling at our passenger cars and trucks in the local and long-distance traffic...”Bungenberg Agency GmbH
“... the fuel consumption dropped to 3-5 liters per 100 km, the smoke formation was considerably lower.”P.
