Abstract
A heating installation for a motor vehicle is of the kind in which air, from two air processing circuits is delivered to the left hand and right hand halves of the vehicle cabin respectively, in such a way that the temperature of the air in the two halves of the vehicle can be adjusted so as to be different if required. The installation includes a moulded member defining four air streams between the outlets of the left and right hand processing circuits and a windshield de-icing/de-misting slot means, namely: a first flow path extending from the left hand circuit to a left hand slot region; a second flow path extending from the left hand circuit to the right hand slot region; a third flow path extending from the right hand circuit to the left hand slot region; and a fourth flow path extending from the right hand circuit to the right hand slot region. This removes any tendency for any unevenness of temperature as between the left and right hand halves of the windshield, in respect of the de-icing/de-misting air.
