Post by: Archer on March 20, 2010, 02:28:25 pm: I agree,

However,

SURELY the pieces of equipment you saw, ie: dustcart & hot water trolley are like most of what you guys constantly slag off on this forum ??? ???

Firstly,

Most of you come on slagging off Ionics, saying how can they charge the amounts of money they charge when you can build your own for a fraction of the price,

So surely your DIY Systems will look like a right laugh at the side of an Ionics system ???????

AM I RIGHT ?

Also the hot water trolley that was there was i think about £3k

For that £2k you got a system that produces Hot Water & also holds 200 litres of water, can be van mounted for £2k, not bad compared to other prices at the show also making Hot Water costing £3.5k & £4k.

So Ok, it didnt look superb but made exactly the same Hot Water either of the other system make = HOT WATER, If its hot - its hot

What does it matter what it looks like if the results are the same & your saving atleast £1.5k

I had loads taking pics of my trolleys, they were even trying to take pic of inside pump box, even had someone peel off spec on our polar vak, the lengths some people go to DIY. One woman came back 3 times to measure and photograph our retrofit head for polarvak!
