The Hurricane

®

 Chinook Heating System 

It is recommended to contact the vehicle/engine manufacturer prior 
to proceeding with the engine plumbing installation. 

Prior  to  operating  the  engine  pre-heat  pump,  the  engine  coolant 
loop must be connected to the Hurricane

®

 Chinook and the coolant 

line  purged  of  air.  Do  not  run  the  engine  pre-heat  pump  without

®

 Chinook Heating System 

 

Do  not  operate  the  Hurricane

®

  Chinook  Heating  System  until 

the  proper  water/anti-freeze  heat  transfer  fluid  solution  has 
been added to the Hurricane

®

 Chinook Heating System and all 

trapped  air  has  been  bled.  An  inadequate  mixture  of  heat 
transfer fluid could cause system circulation problems, potential
