Start the day in a warm car
Installation of car preheating systems
Start every morning with a warm car! Autonomous pre-heaters run on the car’s own fuel – either petrol or diesel – and do not require a power outlet. They warm up both the engine and the cabin before your trip and can be activated with a timer or via smartphone. A perfect solution for those who want independence and comfort in any situation.
An economical and reliable solution for winter.
Electric pre-heaters connect to a 220V socket and warm up both the engine and the cabin. The system is affordable and perfectly suited for everyday use. You can also add a battery charger and a cabin heater to ensure maximum comfort even on the coldest mornings.
How to choose the right car pre-heater
In winter, every trip often begins with scraping ice and trying to start a frozen car. A pre-heater solves this problem – your car is warm before the journey, windows are clear, and the engine starts easily. In Estonia, two main types of pre-heaters are commonly used: autonomous fuel-powered systems and electric solutions connected to a 220V outlet.
Autonomous Pre-Heaters (e.g. Webasto)
An autonomous pre-heater runs on the car’s own fuel – petrol or diesel – and does not require a power socket. It works like a small boiler under the hood, heating the engine coolant and circulating warm air into the cabin. The result: a warm engine, ice-free windows, and a comfortable interior even before you start driving. The heater can be activated with a remote control or a smartphone, making it convenient in any situation, no matter where you are. This is the right choice for those who drive a lot and don’t want to rely on an electric outlet in winter – it provides complete independence and maximum comfort.
