- Best Feature: The salt-free formula protects washer systems, saving on future repair bills.
- Heads-up: The 5-litre jug is bulky, so ensure you have adequate, stable storage space.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
Glasgow-based 'Piping Hot Pizzas' was struggling with unreliable screen wash for its five delivery cars, particularly during the wet Scottish winters. They needed a reliable, bulk screen wash for restaurants that didn't require constant mixing or leave smears that impaired driver vision at night.
"We switched to the CarPlan all-seasons fluid three months ago. The difference is night and day. It cuts through road spray instantly, and being ready-mixed saves my team so much time. Our drivers feel safer, which is the most important thing."
Michael Campbell – Operations Manager
The switch has resulted in a 100% reduction in driver complaints about poor visibility and has streamlined their vehicle check routine, saving an estimated 15 minutes per vehicle per week.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Ensure the vehicle's engine is off and cool before you begin.
- Locate the windscreen washer reservoir – it's usually a white or translucent plastic tank with a windscreen/water symbol on the cap.
- Carefully open the cap and pour the ready-to-use solution directly into the reservoir. Avoid overfilling; stop at the 'MAX' line if visible.
- Securely replace the cap to prevent spills and contamination.
Keeping It Going
- Store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and always keep the cap tightly sealed.
- Make checking the washer fluid level part of your team's regular weekly vehicle checks.
- In extremely cold weather, run the washers for a few seconds after parking to clear the jets of fluid that could freeze.
- Never mix different types of screen wash, as this can lead to gelling and blockages in the system.

Explore more from CarplanWhy an 'All-Seasons' Formula Makes Commercial Sense
Ever wondered what 'all-seasons' actually means for a screen wash? Think of it like having an all-terrain tyre for your windscreen. In summer, the formula is engineered with surfactants that are brilliant at breaking down sticky, protein-based messes like baked-on bugs and bird droppings. It also easily lifts the fine layer of dust and pollen that can turn into a smeary mess with a bit of drizzle.
Come winter, the formula's composition changes its focus. It contains a higher concentration of glycol, which acts as an antifreeze. This prevents the fluid in your washer reservoir and pipes from freezing solid, but more importantly, it helps melt light frost and ice on the windscreen itself. Using a single, effective all seasons windscreen wash fluid means you don't have to swap products twice a year, saving storage space, reducing waste, and ensuring your fleet is prepared for a surprise cold snap or a summer downpour without a second thought.
