Title: Hot wash wfp
Post by: steven842 on July 05, 2012, 08:03:27 pm

Hey guys I've been looking round on here for information on how to set up a hot water system etc.   

I'm Scottish and don't like spending money so thermo pure is out of the question , I've seen the corwood  heater system but for the life of me can't see how it works is there anyone on here that has pictures of a DIY hot water system ?

Reason I want hot water is I'm getting a lot more annual cleans and cleans every six months and find it hard to remove the dirt with cold water systems.

i have the corwoods easy heat system, it is really simple to put in, you put it after the di and before the hose and it connects to a gas bottle costs between 1-2 pound a day to run and does heat up the water as hot as you like.
 
you put it near the back door if open, or you can install a mushroom vent in the top of the van, mines just near the back door.

I took mine out after a while just to use int eh winter because i got sick of connecters flying off etc, however, for the winter they do keep your hose from freezing up, 20 degrees higher than the ambient temperature is what you want in the cold

Change your connectors I have a washing machine hose from my fogwash to the reel which then goes onto a professional coupling that I got from a pneumatics company and can now run it all year round very hot
