Keep warm with AeroTherm Engine Heater

By General Aviation News Staff · February 3, 2006 ·

Finally there’s a better way to care for your engine this winter without blasting extreme heat into the engine compartment.

The AeroTherm electric engine heater supplies 190°F air to the engine compartment, evenly and consistently heating all parts of the engine with no bulky propane tank to haul around or refill. With 500, 1,000, and 1,500 watt settings and a thermostat, the AeroTherm can remain plugged in all winter long maintaining an optimum, preselected temperature for pennies a day.

Used as a preheater, the AeroTherm will warm the engine enough for starting in about an hour, or completely warm the engine in three hours with an outside temperature of 0°F.

Included with the AeroTherm are two hoses, a stand, carrying case, a nylon suspension band for hanging the unit from the prop and four sponges to seal the engine intakes for increasingly warm air.

Price: $399.
