Title: Hot Water?
Post by: Davew on December 15, 2006, 02:22:41 pm

I see some manufacturers offer this option on wfp systems. Is it worth the money? Anyone using it? Does it produce much better results and can it cut cleaning times very much. Thanks Dave

Do you think Ionics could prove that WFP is quicker with hot water rather than using cold water at the Birmingham cleaning show. I've used hot & cold water for window cleaning and I much prefer using hot water as it remoes stubborn marks, etc so much quicker and the water sheets down the glass on all the windows unlike using cold water.
Hot water is definitely faster than cold because anyone can catch a cold!

Apart from cost, why don't more people use it then?

I expect a lot of window cleaners have not been able to make any comparisons between the hot & cold versions.
The Birmingham cleaning show would be a good opportunity for the likes of Ionics to set up 2 window cleaning demonstrations side by side (one a hot wash & the other a cold wash) to show off/sell the Unique Selling Points of their hot wash for us window cleaners to consider spending the extra money required for these hot wash systems.
Until you've tried a hot wash system day in and day out you can't really knock it apart from initial cost and running cost but I can justify the extra cost because of the extra work I am doing in a day as a result of using hot water!
