The supplemental mesh with integrated heater should prevent the idiots who run plain water. The temperature sensors in the windshield sense the temperature of the glass and control the temperature of the fluid and heating grids.
If you have ever seen a car with electric defoggers you know that heating the glass to prevent or remove ice does not break the glass.

Thats what I do...ruin peoples idea ruining.
haha im glad to know you have thought your idea through. i will say down here in the states most windshield wiper fluids freeze at about 25-30 F. rarely do you see the really good stuff unless you're significantly north. I use to use it when my parents live in lake placid, ny. in washington DC however i just use the cheap stuff, which does freeze.
