Here's an alternative to winterizing your engine every year. The usual procedure involves flushing, draining, spraying - plus a lot of work in cold, damp weather not to mention crawling around in cramped spaces. The Bensaco heater has enough power to keep your engines from freezing through the harshest winters, yet doesn't cost much to run. It's ideal if you keep your boat in the water year-round, and use it during warm spells. Simply turn them off and go. When you get back, Plug it in, and walk away. No hassle. You'll use your boat longer into cool weather, and earlier in the spring. It's a forced hot air heater, with non-sparking elements and fan. A thermostat turns the heater on at 45 degrees F., and off when the compartment reaches 55 degrees. Heavy 16 gauge aluminum cover is powder-coated for corrosion resistance. Runs on 120 volt AC, and cost 6-8 cents an hour to run (depending on local utility rates).

TEST OPERATION OF UNIT:

To "test" the unit when ambient air temperature is above 45F you must simulate an ambient below 45F. To create the simulation: With the heater unit properly hardwired to a 120V power source, locate the 1/2" dia. hole marked "Test" on the end cover of the unit. Using the 6 oz. can of Freeze Mist spray supplied with your heater, insert the "straw" into the nozzle and spray a 2-3 second burst of mist into the "Test" hole. This will "trick" the thermostat into turning the heater "ON". After a period of time (30 sec. - 3 min.), the ambient temperature of your test environment will resume control of the thermostat and turn your heater "OFF".

*Remember: The fan will continue operating for 10 minutes after the heating element has turned "OFF".

** The "test" procedure may be performed at any time to confirm the operation of your heater. It should be performed periodically, and at the beginning of the cold weather season in your area.
