Heating radiators in buildings freeze when the water gets 0 Celsius.
In cars it controlled by the strength of the coolant mixture. Where I live we target 40 below for safety, but at that strength the coolant doesn't really freeze at 40 below, it kind of "gel's" and wont circulate anymore, freezing at a lower unspecified temperature.
What else can I help you with?
How long does it take a radiator to freeze 30 degrees f?
The time it takes for a radiator to freeze at 30°F would depend on various factors, such as the initial temperature of the radiator, its size, the surrounding temperature, and the material it is made of. In general, it could take several hours to freeze completely at that temperature. Cooling rates can vary significantly based on these factors.
Does hot water freeze more quickly than room temperature?
No, hot water does not freeze more quickly than room temperature water. In fact, hot water takes longer to freeze because it has to cool down to the same temperature as room temperature water before it can start freezing.
Would a puddle freeze if the temperature was - 5 degrees?
Yes, a puddle would likely freeze at -5 degrees Celsius because water freezes at or below 0 degrees Celsius. The lower the temperature, the faster the puddle will freeze.
At what temperature does a lake freeze, and how cold does it have to be for this to happen?
A lake freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius). The temperature needs to be consistently below freezing for the lake to freeze completely.
Why doesn't spring water freeze?
Spring water can freeze if the temperature drops low enough. However, spring water may resist freezing at higher temperatures compared to tap water due to minerals and impurities that act as antifreeze, lowering its freezing point. Nevertheless, if the temperature is cold enough, spring water will eventually freeze like any other water.

Brief description about cooling system in engines?
Internal combustion engines are cooled by anti-freeze (AKA coolant). The anti-freez circulates the coolant through the engine and radiator. When the cooland flows through the radiator, the air passing though the radiator cools the anti-freeze, hence allowing cool anti-freeze to ciculate through engine, thus reducing temperature.
Why does the engine temperature goes up when sitting in one spot it is fine when driving?
Check the radiator anti freeze level. it maybe low.
Your Lincoln ls alerts you to check engine temperature when there is anti-freeze in it what could this be?
A clog in your radiator, a broken water pump, low oil.
Are there freeze plugs on the radiator on a 2001 dodge Dakota?
No, the freeze plugs are on the engine.
What temperature does diesel freeze?
what temperature does diesel freeze at in Celsius
What part of the car holds anti-freeze?
The radiator
How do you change antifreeze in a jag?
Empty the radiator - and re-fill it ! Car anti-freeze is added to the water in the radiator so, if you drain it and re-fill it, you can add a fresh quantity of anti-freeze into the radiator filler hole.
Why would anti-freeze leak from under the car?
Failed gasket, seal, hose, freeze plug, radiator.......
Can you put ice in your radiator?
You can put ice in your radiator. Keep in mind that the ice is just water and you should have SAE certified anti-freeze in your radiator
What would cause the temperature gauge to rise in my 99 Neon?
You have to check if you have Anti-freeze in the radiator, make sure you check when the car is cold not hot! If Anti-freeze is not present make sure you do not have a leak. If Anti-freeze is present then it most likely is your thermostat which should only run you $20 to fix. Good Luck
What do you fill a radiator with?
You should fill a radiator with a coolant solution that is specifically formulated for use in automotive cooling systems. Water mixed with the appropriate ratio of coolant is typically recommended to keep the engine running at the right temperature and prevent it from overheating.
