They help prevent excess engine wear.

It's that time of year when the temperatures start to drop and it takes your engine more effort to start. A block heater helps your engine to start by keeping the coolant warm. They are typically installed in a coolant passage on your engine block. With the coolant being warm it keeps your engine warm and that includes your engine oil. This ensures an easier start and less wear on your internal components and saves on fuel.


This also means that on those cold mornings that your heater starts working more quickly to defrost those windows and keeps you warm too. 


Not all vehicles come with a block heater but one can be installed on most engines. As a reminder they do need to be plugged into a wall outlet on your house.
