Understand the function of parking heaters

A parking heater is a device that provides heating for a car when it is parked. The function of this device is to keep the car warm in cold weather, while also providing preheating for the engine.

Fuel fired parking heaters are the most common type, which use car fuel to heat the air or engine coolant inside the car. This type of device usually needs to be installed in the fuel system of a car and requires some maintenance to ensure its normal operation.

Electric parking heaters use the car's electricity to heat the air or engine coolant inside the car. This type of device is usually easier to install and does not require support from the fuel system. However, they typically require higher power consumption, which may impose additional burdens on car batteries.

The parking heater can provide warmth to the car in cold weather, making the driver and passengers feel comfortable, providing preheating for the engine, reducing wear and tear during cold start, and reducing energy consumption in cold weather, as they can reduce engine cooling time.

A parking heater is a practical device that can provide warmth to a car in cold weather and preheat the engine. However, they require a certain amount of installation and maintenance work, so they require certain skills and experience. When choosing a parking heater, one should consider its type, usage, advantages and disadvantages, and choose according to personal needs.
