Title: Cost of Running Hot System?
Post by: cockney rebel on February 18, 2010, 07:07:43 am
As the hot water system is connected to your fuel tank, i was wondering how much extra a week do you spend on fuel?

If you use it all day people generally reckon it is around £5 per day in diesel.

I haven't got hot but the more you spend the more you save as in you earn more as it cleans faster especially on first cleans.

hi Ste.

the hot runs off the vans fuel system and usually heats up within a couple of mins of switching heat exchange on.

I would say when using it all day it costs about £1.50 in fuel.
