Works very well
Today, after 10 miles driving to work, the coolant temp was up at 203* sitting at a stop light with the engine off. The temp selector on my dash was still on cold. I turned it to "hot," but with the engine still off the fan blew cold air. I started the car to drive, the air from the fan turned hot as I watched the coolant temp drop to 186* within about 10 seconds. For the remainder of my P&G routine to work the car stayed in the 180s-190s as usual (I normally have "hot" selected on the heater once the car warms up).
It was such a good example of what this thread is about I thought I'd add the story.
