Why Pro Heat?
PROHEAT pads consume less electricity than frost plug/block heater counterparts. Frost plug/block heaters take hours to install with a variety of tools -- PROHEAT pads install in minutes without any tools and are permanent. A typical frost plug heater consumes 600watts while a 6.6l Duramax heater consumes 1000watts. Most applications can be covered by a Pro Heat Model # 512 that only consumes 250watts. PROHEAT pads are SMART, SIMPLE and COST-EFFECTIVE.

  • Unlike frost plug/block heaters, PROHEAT pads will not adversely affect newer car and light truck computer systems in cold weather.
  • PROHEAT heats the engine from the bottom up, starting with the oil.
  • Warm oil provides quicker lubrication to vital engine components reducing the need for costly, premature repairs.
  • Overnight use will warm the entire engine.
  • PROHEAT pads consume less electricity than frost plug/block heater counterparts.
