Grab our heat shut off valve and stop roasting in your van!That stubborn hot air pouring from the front vents that can’t be stopped no matter where you set your controls is usually caused by a defective front heater valve, a bent heater control cable, or worn heater box flap seals. This allows radiator heat to sneak inside the cabin uninvited. The result? An uncomfortably warm cabin when all you want is cool, fresh air.
Meet the fix that actually works: Our heavy-duty, motorized ball valve. This bomber shut-off valve completely blocks coolant flow to the front heater coreso when you ask for no heat, you get no heat. Flip the dash-mounted switch and the valve instantly opens or closes, giving you total control over your cabin climate.
