I installed a Ski Doo rad hose heater (any rad hose heater will do) to my 582 and use it anytime the temp is below +40ish. I find that it starts and idles with little priming and the water temp is already around 100F on start. I feel justified in flying the airplane by the time I taxi out, which is around 5 min, figuring everything is nice and warm. It only takes a short time (1 hr). When its cold out, I'll plug it into a timer the night before, so it will be nice and warm in the morning, without using too much hydro.
