The only thing that lets them down is the inline heater ive got the older version the Powermax with a 120 psi pump the heater struggles to get the water hot enough so running at a higher psi i take it the results would be worse for the same money you are better getting a Powerflight machine.

Inline heaters can't heat cold water enough for working. The water just isn't in contact with the heating elements for long enough. If running from cold you have to run back in to the tank to at least get it warm before you can expect hot at the wand.

My Powr-Flite gives plenty of hot water with cold in the tank. I always use hot in the tank
but yesterday one customer had none at all, so cold used, and i was surprised it was still scalding hot at the connectors on the wand, through 50' of pipe, at 350 Psi.

Ive started to fill 25litre barrels of water every night usually take 4 in the van for the Powerflight it saves loads of time messing about at the customers sink after using the Powerflight for 5mins the water is roasting hot anyway and thats from cold.

I am thinking of going back to a ninja! I had a 135 psi I want a 400 psi steam mate built in, as well as a heater in tank,these machines are the dogs what sitts
 ;D but around £2,700 they are not cheap. been useing a 500psi Rhino,when they work they are good.this is my 2nd machine in just 10 months,problems every so often,just not as reliable as a ninja
