When a block heater is worthwhile
A block heater warms the engine before starting, easing cold starts, reducing wear and saving fuel. In Finnish winter a block heater is practically essential — even at -10 °C the engine consumes double the fuel compared to a warmed-up engine. Options: DEFA heater (most common in Finland, screws into the block) and Calix heater (usually fitted with a coil). Both work the same way — an electric element heats coolant that circulates inside the engine. Typical heating power is 400–600 W.

How long should a block heater be used?
Heating power is maximum at 1–2 hours — longer use doesn't warm the engine further, it just wastes electricity. Sensible use time: 30 min at -5 °C, 1 h at -15 °C, 2 h at -25 °C. Optimal heating control is via a timer or smart controller that switches power on automatically 1–2 h before morning departure.
