Frozen windshield washer

[Glad Jeeper]

So, here is something I am in need of. Once the temp hits 32 or below my windshield washer spray freezes and will not spray, obviously. I am using an antifreeze washer but this does not help. Last winter was in single digit temps and could not use the washer fluid to get grim off, it was actually kinda dangerous driving.

Does anyone have information on heaters for the windshield washers?

You can mix isopropyl alcohol in with your fluid and keep it from freezing. I forget the ratios but you can google it. Just make sure you run it through the actual washers and don’t just pour it in. That should help the lines from freezing up.

Rain X windshield wash in the gallon bottles its good down to -20F. But I have never seen it freeze in -30F.

I have had better luck actually using a true "De-Icer" fluid like the Prestone or even the Walmart branded De-Icer Fluid in the winter.

Using the standard blue washer fluid even when they claim sub below freeze rating has been hit or miss with me and more times a miss than anything. I have also found with the blue stuff that if you use a previously broken seal and opened jug from the year before, it is not as potent the following year.
