Abstract
A heating and ventilating installation for the cabin of a motor vehicle includes a distributor box which has an air inlet arranged to admit a stream of cold air and a stream of heated air. The distributor box also has a plurality of air outlets, including a de-icing air outlet port. A distributor valve is arranged to pivot within the distributor box, and has a guide channel extending in a direction which is generally transverse with respect to the pivot axis of the valve, so as to direct the stream of heated air towards the de-icing air outlet port when the valve is set in a position for de-icing.
