How To Keep Your HHO Hydrogen Generator From Freezing Up
Thinking of building and installing an HHO kit but live in freezing northern climates? Well, there are a few things you can do when it gets below freezing. There are many well proven HHO blends that have a VERY LOW freezing temperature that will keep it from freezing.
The mixture you put in your HHO generator is called an electrolyte. For hot climates a standard HHO electrolyte is fine as it won’t freeze, but once you’re in winter wonderland you’ll need to use a special blend so it doesn’t freeze. Don’t get me wrong, it’s fine to let it freeze as long as your container doesn’t explode, but your fuel consumption will decrease and you’ll be less efficient. If you build it right (or buy the right HHO product), it won’t affect the generator. There are many HHO electrolytes you can use, but the mix here works VERY well and won’t freeze (unless you live in a climate where it’s -60F).
Here are the ingredients:
White vinegar
sodium bicarbonate
Isopropyl alcohol
Hydrogen peroxide
Mix 3 tablespoons of club soda and two ounces of vinegar in a pan. These will react and produce ascetic acid and sodium acetate (this is used to clear airport runways). This will bubble when it reacts.
3 cups of rainwater and heat (or use melted snow) then add the above solution.
stir until dissolved. let’s cool down
Add 1 cup of isopropyl alcohol and mix
Add two capfuls of hydrogen peroxide.
Now to test… Simply drop a 9 volt battery into the solution and the battery should bubble creating HHO gas.
