I would expect to keep debris out of the reservoir. I had one catch foil from the fluid bottle once. I guess I didn't get it all off the bottle.

Little off topic but are the spray nozzles heated on our cars to prevent freezing?

Page 47 of my manual states that they are heated when at low temps and the ignition is on.

I just use a cap that you can unscrew to open and close and control the flow. Just get the bottle and cap in position and unscrew the cap slowly, fill it up and close the cap when you are done. No spills and good aim.

I like the idea of the screen. The fluid jugs have hard to remove foil and plastic seals that sometimes rip apart into little pieces - the screen can keep these out rather than them fouling up the pump and tubes. Also, sometimes when you open the hood there are leaves or small debris in that area close to the cowl, so the screen keeps that stuff out too. I wish they had a little plastic catch or post to hold the blue reservoir cap open. If I do spill some fluid it is usually because that pesky tethered cap falls into the fluid stream and splashes fluid around.

Been using this twist valve "bottle top" for years. Why would someone use anything else? I have one for washer fluid and another I use for anti-freeze fluid.

I've been using those little caps also. I picked mine up at Auto-Zone or Advance Auto years ago, I just keep one for anti-freeze, one for washer fluid, and an extra for whatever I may need it for.

These containers made by No-Spill are getting pretty good reviews although a bit pricey. I especially like their push-button design of their gas containers for my other machines. I absolutely hate the typical CARB requirement gas cans made today - they cause more gas spills than the old non-reg designs. Amazon has the No-Spill containers.
