Engine heaters like the Kat's Cartridge Style Engine Block Heater # KH11814 are intended to be left plugged in overnight. Their pad-style oil/transmission pan heaters like # KH24150 also are made to be used this way so that your cold-weather morning starts are easier.

The cartridge heater should not be used with a 100-percent antifreeze solution; the engine should not be started with the heater still plugged in.
