ABSTRACT:
A heater system for the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle comprises a number of heat exchange elements arranged in a stack. Flow of engine coolant through each of the heat exchange elements is individually controlled by valve means having a coolant inlet and a coolant outlet and which includes a valve member which can progessively open the flow of coolant to the heat exchange elements by uncovering staggered supply orifices. The heat exchange elements are in parallel with a bypass passage which allows flow from the coolant inlet to the coolant outlet through a bypass orifice. The bypass orifice becomes progressively blocked as the valve member uncovers the supply orifices.
