Very simple setup I made that I've been selling in the states for the last month or so. I thought I would share with you Canadian hummer guys. It's quite simple, it's a heated coiled wire with nice thick insulation wrapped around it. I use all zinc and stainless hardware so no rusting. Some people spend 12$ extra and get the switch to control it and see when its on but most just hard wire it to a non constant in the fuse box. It takes about 10 mins or less to heat up a tank when its all the way full. Its a fun little project and worth the time spend developing it.

Re: Heated washer fluid coil
That is a pretty interesting little project!
I usually put -35 rated washer fluid in my reservoir all year round so nozzle freeze-up hasn't ever really been an issue for me.

Re: Heated washer fluid coil
I've never had it freeze up on me but it's a nice thing to have when it snowing or in traffic when other cars are kicking up slush.
