Althought I'm not sure how it could work, I don't really understand how watter wetter works either, and that's been proven to keep your coolant "colder", so I don't see why you couldn't make a heater hotter too.

I won't buy anything from them just based on their annoying banner.

Sounds like a waste of money to me.

water wetter breaks the surface tension that serve as a barrier to heat transfer, or so i am told. The main thing water-wetter does is allow you to run almost 100% water in your cooling system. Water transfers heat better than ethylene-glycol does, but if you ran straight water your car would probably boil over and your cooling system would corrode. Water wetter claims to raise boiling points and protect the system without needing to make up 50% of the volume of your cooling system. I think that is the sort of thing more appropriate for a track car than a street car, though. |

so what happens if you use both at the same time?  do they cancel each other out? |

If it improves heat transfer from the engine to the water, then it does the same thing with the radiator. I can't see how this would relate to a warmer heater output. maybe for a few minutes, then the water temp. rise makes this irrelevant. (hard to explain... I'm just saying it's useless.)
