I have that one, well, the better one with the safety switch still attached,

built my own flue for it and have the doors open a jar, which can be locked also allowing all fumes out of the van, hose to move free and the security that no-one can get into the van

i Had an e-mail from reach 2 clean:

Hi Ben
Yes we can fit it to your ionic van no problem. How ever we are struggling to get our heaters at the moment, they have put the heaters up in price dramatically. I have temporally removed the heaters from our site. We are looking at returning them to the market in September.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
Thanks

I think is was Nat that did say that dealing with a chinese manufacturer meant having to buy in quantity. With one supplier wanted a minimum order of 4000. That was a couple of years ago.

So if Reach2clean was buying off ebay in small quantities at under £100.00 on an as and when basis, then what Emma says is correct. The same suppliers are asking £350.00 each for them now.

when we was looking into suppliers for the shop, there suppliers over in china can supply them on there own or in 10's we found several suppliers of them!

they sell the same heaters that you can get on the internet for £100 for double the price, i had one of these and it broke, the coorwoods one was much better for me, (until i let it freeze)

if you keep the coorwoods l5 frost free its very good

richard,why don't you buy your own cylinder and fill it up when needed at a petrol station?
Title: Re: hot water system
Post by: R.C Property on August 17, 2013, 06:37:33 pm
richard,why don't you buy your own cylinder and fill it up when needed at a petrol station?

because

1- don't think they do a small 6kg one.
2 - the set up cost is high.
3 - cutting filling port into side of van
4 - have to go to garages to fill up
5 - wont get gas at trade prices

those are the main reasons

at the moment I get all the gas at trade prices and I can walk in, pick a new one up and walk out with it with-out paying and pay another time! lol
