The Universal Heater Company

The Universal Preheater&trade is the cold weather Preheater of choice.

The Universal Preheater&trade converts the metal of a housing into a heat transfer element that exposes a large square inch surface of fluid to low watt heat. This design eliminates any chance of burning the fluid supply and still allows rapid heating of the fluid supply.

The Universal Preheater&trade unique flexible ceramic insulation pad enables it to transfer 20% more heat while using 10% less electrical energy, and it helps protect the Preheater in rough environments. Continuous use of the Universal Preheater™ helps to drive moisture out of engine oil helping to avoid the formation of acid.

The Universal Preheater&trade features a Peel N' Stick adhesive backing which permits fast installation and instant use of the Universal Preheater™ once the installation is complete. Proper preparation of the mounting site insures a long life and the efficient transfer of heat energy through the housing for maximum cold weather start benefits.

The Universal Preheater&trade does not invade any systems, therefore: no leaks. Will mount on a single plane curve (but no 90°, sorry).

Universal Preheaters &trade carry UL Approval #E95403. Each kit uses a permanently attached 7 ft. long, three-conductor cord.

The Universal Filter Preheater&trade, a thin, flexible, silicone/fiberglass heating pad, easily wraps around the filter housing to maintain full contact and to evenly transmit heat to the fluid. It is designed to fit 2 inch to 4 inch diameter (8 inch to 12 inch circumference) using springs to hold it snugly against the filter can. When it is time to change the element, the Universal Filter Preheater™ is easily released for transfer to the new filter housing. Diesel fuel gelling and related problems are avoided. This feature alone helps to reduce unnecessary downtime. The Universal Filter Preheater™ is available in 12vdc, 24vdc, 120vac, 240vac and a dual grid model combining the option of powering with direct current or alternating current in the same Preheater™. Thermostats are standard only on the 120vac and 240vac electrical circuits to control the temperature.
