Default Someone verify this information regarding a heater...

So I heard that if you use water instead of coolant/antifreeze, your heater will not work...is this true? I was just wondering, any input?

Your heater will work fine with water in the cooling system; however, don't use water in your cooling system because it will freeze in the winter, boil in the summer, and corrode and destroy your engine.
