I know, I know. It's been asked before but do the users of professionally fitted hot water systems really believe it cleans more efficiently than cold water and aside from the supple hoses in winter are there any other benefits?
Also, aside from the cost are there any other negatives?
Cheers

I love mine.
It’s a grippatank 9kw unit and gives piping hot water. (Nearly too hot)
I use it all day every day, even in the hot weather.
The benefits are for me as I see it;
-Hoses are a doddle to manage.
-Deeper cleaning of glass and frames.
- speed and efficiency ( probably one or two houses a day)
I know many say that there’s no quality difference between hot and cold, but I definitely feel
There is.
After 6 months or so of using HOT water, you will see and feel windows becoming easier to clean. It’s like over time you are really giving them a deep clean. The first 3 or 4 cleans with hot I noticed I was getting spotting issues, it must be the hot water dissolving more dirt from the seals etc than before. But then after a few cleans, you can just fly through work.
(Let the comments that I’m wrong commence.)

Why else would they spend all that money on a system if it doesn't work........ Is the most simplest, non waffle answer I have 😁

Cheers, appreciate the reply.
I do quite a lot of facias/soffit cleans, a few conny roofs each month and a number of commercial jobs which are either every two months or quarterly.
I think these are the jobs I want hot for, not really the day to day maintenance cleans.
One option is to fill with hot water on the morning when the other jobs are due but, when reading previous posts, it seems this method doesn't provide water hot enough to make much of a difference.
I have also started thinking about a safer system such as Grippatank as I have a 3 year old {kid} who loves going out in the van rather than the truck as she sits in the front with me. So maybe the safety factor is the real driver?
-
I used hot for a while , didn't notice any difference at all in the quality of clean nor speed of cleaning, it did however make the hose nice and warm.
So if you want to spend thousands for a nice warm hose then go for it...I prefer just to spend a few quid on some gloves.
-
YES!!!!!!!!
if I spent 4k on hot water i'd want to believe it worked as well

Why would somebody spend money on a parts per billion system or an additive ? working has nothing to do with it.
-
cold water will do an adequate job,if your happy with that then stay cold.......but hot water is much nicer to work with and makes cleaning easier overall......i prefer hot water every day all year round.....
im not going to get in a stupid tit for tat spat with sean or anyone else......use cold or hot water....i really dont care what you use tbh anymore..... ;D

pros
1.less likely of doing a bad job when working fast(splashing and dashing)
2.supple warm hoses(easier for dragging around and reeling in)
3.easier cleaning(bird muck,snail trails,pollen,sea salt if you work on the coast)and of course dirty first cleans and add ons.
4.slightly faster than cold water cleaning
5. FROST STAT (no freezing hoses/pumps,etc in winter,no having to remember to put a heater in your van on cold nights)
cons
1.risk of cracking glass on badly fitted or damaged units(only happened once up to now)
2.brushes dont last as long(but the stiff ones last fairly well these days)
3.connections have to be double clipped usually and extra tight or hot water will find the slightest weakness in your system

Or spend less than a ton and fit an immersion...

Hi Tom,
Is hot water better than cold well I think the answer to that is obvious tbh,it cleans everything much deeper so the comment about getting marks on the first clean or so are correct as it gets stuff off it hasn’t been able to before due to just cold water.
It’s cleans windows especially PVC a lot better they actually look cleaner after a couple of cleans,if you are doing cladding roofs and facias etc it’s a no brainier the difference in ease of cleaning and results are worlds apart and that’s without chemicals needed,
It’s coming into the time of year now that hot water really makes the difference imo,only you know if it’s worth the money I would say try one and see for yourself if you do any kind of coastal work hot systems are a must even if you are cleaning stuff every few weeks.

much deeper than what ? - were cleaning upvc and glass - if you hadn't noticed they are hard surfaces - you can't go deeper than the surface unless your customers are using old jogging bottoms as gutters

Cheers for what ? its simple, if you are spending a large amount of time struggling to get the crud of the glass then maybe you might be one of those unfortunate shiners who actually does need hot water, there's only one real con which is the amount of extra cleans/work you will need to do to cover the cost.
-
Iv used hot and for the reason Smudger has already given there's no difference to the finished clean, speed will be down to confidence, skill and other factors so its impossible to measure what part the hot is playing in this, for me any non essential expense has to either make my day easier or make me more money and using hot done neither.
-
i must be one of them "unfortunate shiners" then...... ::)roll....i do less hours window cleaning than ive ever done,earn more now than i ever have in the past......ill settle for that..... :D 8).....
-
If you can find me a website (other than ionics) where it states warm/hot water cleans better than cold please link it - EVERY site I've looked at states hot cleans no better than cold - the introduction of hot water was for the use of detergent as detergents are now better formulated the water temp can be lowered (look at your washing machine 30 degree is standard now not the old fashioned boil wash)
Maybe if your using vision in your tank then hot will help as it may with tfr but the effect is minimal - great for soft hoses on cold days tho
Darran
-
As Lee Pryor said on here before you won’t notice the same difference if you compare 30 degree water to cold water,if you use hot water over 55-60 degrees you will see a big difference,that temperature will be seen with a 5kw heater intermittently but with a 9kw heater it’s more or less constant at that temperature.
It’s not a competition lol if it was crap I wouldn’t bother to keep running it I’d turn it off and use it for wash downs or first cleans,like I say Tom try a hot system and see for yourself m8
-

So do I and I didn't have to waste £4k plus costs to do it, just like you its was looking for and seeing problems that didn't exist which held me back.

Why does it feel like deja vu... Again again again again ;D

Hot water is great for jobs like these....👍😎
-
I use cold water and have no plan to go hot but to me it is common sense that hot water would clean more efficiently than cold. It would need to be 50 degrees plus probably.
I find hot water much better for dish washing than cold, and the dishwasher and washing machine both use hot water.
If you do a google search on hot water vs cold the scientific explanation seems to be: heating water decreases its viscosity and increases the kinetic activity of the water molecules.
-
another 2 plus points.....windows dry quicker and i have no drop off in flow to my brush in the colder months due to the lower viscosity of warm/hot water....

Try cleaning dishes without detergent and you wont see any difference, washing machines are now being made to use cold water only, but at the end of the day a clean window is a clean window and thats all that counts, the only thing that it could do is make the clean quicker but Iv yet to see any hot user prove that it does.

Now that is ridiculous Sean.
Next time you have a greasy plate, run it under the cold tap, then under the hot. Regardless of detergent hot water cleans better than cold. You’d be mad to think otherwise.
As has already been posted, there’s science behind why hot cleans better than cold.

Water alone hot or cold wont remove grease that's a fact, and yes there may be a scientific reason why hot will clean certain products better than cold but that doesn't mean it applies to what we are removing from glass, my windows will be as clean as yours and you are deluded if you think other.
-
Where has it been posted hot (without detergent) cleans better than cold
I have only found sites that state hot and cold water without detergent clean exactly the same it was the introduction of detergents that brought in the era of hot water ( I will clarify ‘hot’ upto 130 degrees f 50 degrees c ) there is better cleaning and bacterial benefits at and around boiling point
So, at the temps used at wfp there appears to be no particular speed benefit
Darran
-
What I can’t work out regards speed (apart from bird poo). Is that you’d have to physically do something different with your technique to clean glass quicker.
So, hot users, what do you do differently? Less strokes on the glass, less water or what? None of us can see the microscopic dirt coming off anyway so how do we know hot is faster than cold?
-
Exactly - you still have to move the brush up and down and side to side the same amount of times so how do you get quicker?
We don’t clean grease off windows , it’s just dust etc nothing greasy though
-
On a straight forward maintenance clean, there isn't really any difference, apart from the ease and comfort of the hose etc.
However, first cleans, 8 weekly cleans, tree sap on the windows, insect poop etc etc needs less strokes and agitation etc and does make you slightly faster
-
Tree sapp grease bird poo and I mean baked on bird poo as well as small yellow bee spots are removed effortlessly with hot water,if hot was no better than cold like I’ve said before I wouldn’t have got another or I’d turn mine off most of the time but it stays on all the time for me I love it.
You can debate resin quality or 1 squeegee is better than another but hot over cold there’s not really a debate to be had other than is it worth the money,the fact it is better is obvious it’s not debatable when you are taking about whether or not it cleans everything better of course it does.
Try getting up and looking at you’re work from the inside of jobs not from 25-30ft away,most stuff looks clean at that distance hot gives you confidence the jobs done better.
-
Come on , it doesn’t save you that much time - your talking 1 or 2 seconds

For some having an L and R wrote on their work boots would give them the confidence to go out knowing they were wearing them on the right feet, but that doesnt mean we all need the same.
For me zero customer complaints is all the confidence boosting I need.

itll soon be winter lads...... ;D
another point about hot water....customers are really impressed with it esp in the colder months when the steam is coming off your brush,it looks great......and adds a bit of warm comfort on a cold dull working day.....
-
It seems that the argument over hot versus cold is not whether one is more effective than another, its more like is it really needed in our industry.
I live rural and coastal at the same time and a lot of my work is like 4 weekly first cleans, some months its ok and some areas are better than others but on the whole, I think I may benefit from hot water.
I just ain't paying out to Grippa/whoever, a silly amount of money that'll basically slash my profit by a fair percentage. I do look at the systems and they do look nice etc, but when I think about handing the ££ over it kills me. Even on a monthly basis that's a lot of extra money to payout.
I do have a 3kw immersion though, but it doesn't get the water hot enough to the point where it seems to make a difference. what is the sweet spot temp wise?
I am considering getting another immersion in the tank to boost the temps right up, I reckon it'll cost no more in electricity than it would in diesel, but I won't have a stupid amount to outlay. Also the expensive frost stat I wouldn't need, as a side benefit of an immersion heater is keeping the van warm overnight so double whammy there.
I may end up with a deformed looking tank though, its probably years old now though.
-
You can't teach an old dog new tricks. Just stick to hot or cold, whatever your affordability or happy with.
I use hot and more than happy with it. I Don't care what others think, all I'm bothered about is if it works for me carry on ;D

What are they ? idiots, theres no way you would be putting hot water on my cold windows risking fractures and possibly reducing their lifespan, especially when I know it isnt needed, thing is if I was your competition I would also be pointing that out to your customers.
-
Used hot for over 13 years cracked less than a handful,I prefer cold water tbh the hose in winter goes like telegraph pole wire it gets tangled like mad I love it 😂.
You can’t beat coming out to you’re van in the middle of winter only to find everything frozen and frosty,I’d stay cold m8 at least you can look forward to those green weatherboard cleans or salt covered windows by the sea lovely.

But also lads, as Sean keeps harping about, yes you can do just as good with cold water but how much effort does it require? We've all had that stubborn bird poop that you need to soak and come back to. Or the pollen/tree sap/insect poop which needs a good scrub to come off and yes it eventually does. Yet guess what, no such effort is needed when you use hot water, just a couple of passes and it's off.

What kind of temps are you getting Nathan? In the tank and at the brush?
I have a 3kw in 650 ltr but would look to add more kw's, what temp do you need to be to make a difference mate?
-
Sure hot might clean a bit faster on certain marks but the running costs far out weight the benefits.
As for keeping the van an hoses frost free that can be done with a simple immersion at a fraction of the cost of a diesel heater

Again though, how many marks or stubborn stains per week do you come across and how much time do you save per bird poo ?
Let's say it's 20 bird poos/marks a week at 10 seconds per poo so 3 mins 20 seconds saved a week.
And hot water costs how much a week even using just an immersion?
I could save 3 mins by cleaning windows and not posting this whilst eating my lunch.
-
It’s not just that Nathan if you go inside and see some of the windows you’ll see the difference between the 2,from the ground they look spotless but with some dirty windows and they all get dirtier than they once did these days due to pollution and more traffic around with cold sometimes you can see bits or sections of the window that get missed.
It’s the 🐝 spots and spiders in the corners that clean up easier and better as well as frames,it’s not a debate it’s fact.
-
My diesel heater costs about £2 a day to run , it’s so little I don’t worry about it and run it full time .
I don’t think that I would buy a Grippa or PF one to be honest , don’t think I could justify the outlay and running cost , for me it’s a comfort thing that gets rid of snail trails quicker and that’s it !
-
This is the point though isn't it, being able to justify the running cost of hot water in relation to the profit being made.
Granted, I wouldn't want to spend a couple of grand on a hot water system, but that's because I'm not in a position to justify such a spend with everything else going on in my life. However, if these circumstances were different, then perhaps I would. Its save and you have the option to run it or not, being job specific.
I wouldn't use the gas option, just for the variable things that could change an explosion, which is more realistic.
I've gone the immersion heater route, lol which is well documented on here (for ones to search, if they have any questions, I'm sure it's been covered). The cost is very small, if you alter your tariff etc, as I have done so. (Again previously mentioned) so it can be a cheap way of using hot water and if trying to justify a small expense, then you are even a tight fisted Yorkshire or a Scot 😁

At 55-60 degrees you will see a big difference in drying times and cleaning results.

Not trying to rude Spot but Nathan K makes it up as he goes along and nothing he ever comes out with adds up, if your looking for decent immersion advice then Gold, Smudger and others are the ones to ask and listen to.

Looking around online I would need another 1kw to make 4 kw and run that for roughly 12 hours to reach around 60 degrees.
My average pence per kilowatt price is 15p, so that equates to £7.20 per night for 60 degrees hot water.
Not sure I want to pay that.

Running a 4kw immersion for 12 hours non stop would even put upgraded home electrics under strain, it would certainly take a fairly heavy extension lead.

The 3 kw I have has been done on a full 16a rig, the other 1 kw would be separate. Not sure I want to pay that in electric though.
I can get to 45 degrees in around 10 hours on my 3kw set up as it is, not sure by the time it gets to the brush head its going to be any more than frost protection.

My tariff with N power is 15p day and night it is 7.5p. That's from midnight till 7 am.

I have found that in general I lose 1*c for each 10m of hose out .

Possibly lol, I'll have to have a check on its name. I just remember the prices

Looking around online I would need another 1kw to make 4 kw and run that for roughly 12 hours to reach around 60 degrees.
My average pence per kilowatt price is 15p, so that equates to £7.20 per night for 60 degrees hot water.
Not sure I want to pay that.
it costs me around £5 a day to run my diesel heater for 5-6 hours a day.once the initial cost of the heater is paid for then your laughing......i think your mad not to have a decent hot water system working on the coast,itll make your working day easier for sure......
if its true that your in the £60-£65k a year turnover bracket you should be easily able to afford a professionally fitted 9kw diesel heater,plus its tax deductible too....

I could buy one outright today, but the price for hot water is high that way. I'm going to speak to my energy provider today and see if I cant get the economy 7 tariff.
If I upgrade my immersion heater for £50 or less, I can have a tank of steaming hot water for around £3.50-£4.00 including frost protection with only pennies spent.
Your system looks great Daz, I do want one of them but Its simply overpriced for what it is and I can't bring myself to do it. I work hard to bring home the dough, but 2 kids and a mortgage etc...

I have one and I’m on my arse !

Ah yes, but you figured out how to make one yourself. I don't think I have the capacity for that.

Just been shopping for parts for an easier build and more compact design , supplying these may not be too far away ;D

As the standing charge and day rates are a lot higher on economy 7 it can be a false economy, unless using large amounts it can actually cost more than a normal tariff, you also need to remember if you claim business expenses on this electric then you need to pay the full 20% vat on it.

Its because deep down you know its a folly that wont pay its way, if it did Grippa would have a waiting list as long as your arm and most names on here on here including my own would be on it.
As business people if somethings going to make us more money for less work we find a way to fund it.

if you go for the 2 man grippa hot system with 2 pumps you would be able to turn off the heater at lunchtime as the water will be piping hot in your 650L tank....
but its up to you mate....yes its an expensive bit of kit but its quality.....dont forget you dont just get the 9kw heater,it comes with the controller,smart split charge relay,2 x heavy duty 105ah numax batteries,frost stat feature and of course fitting......if you go vat registered in the future you can claim the vat back(£750 of the price of the heater was vat).....

Well this hot water debate has been making me think, I see it like this, it's not whether it's effective or not but more like is it necessary for us?
It's obvious we all have different beliefs, and hot water is more relevant in some areas than others. I'm wondering if it might make my work a little easier here and there as I'm coastal and rural. Some parts are a real pain even on a 4 weekly basis. Snail trails, seagull muck, bug spots, spider webs, and all that nice stuff are more the rule than the exception.
I do want to try some 60-degree water on the bad parts of my round and see if makes it even slightly easier, some areas I won't even bother as it couldn't get any easier than it already is.
The way I see it is I'm 41 this week on Saturday, Friday night I'm going to the physio for knee pain this time. I'm no slouch or wimp but I do believe I need to think about the next 20 years of work (if it gets that far) and look after my body, I've 2 younguns.
The easier the better I say, life gives us enough challenges, keep some energy for something else.

Beliefs have nothing to do with it, I tried hot and found it made no difference to my quality or working day, you work on the coast so will have conditions that I didnt and dont have to deal with so cant say if it will benefit you or not.
To be fair when it comes to these nonsense threads I just like winding up Dazmond yes it does no it doesnt work, Jonny Vision is a game changer and NWH the only thing that beats parts per billion water in a free conny roof clean, only in window cleaning lol.

Sean only needs 100 litres of pure water a day, out the back of a car, cold water, one brush to do everything, and a fibreglass pole to reach perfect standards of cleaning, he has 5 star reviews and his customers give him cups of tea at the start, middle, and end of each job he does.
He’s what we all aspire to be. We just haven’t realised it yet.

Iv had a new van and ready build system from day one, I could have done it a lot cheaper but for me it was mony well spent, like you Iv also wasted money on nonsense, a Dragonfly indoor kit and an overpriced £2k gutter vac complete with 48feet worth of alloy poles to name but a few, but unlike you I learn from my mistakes.
Explain again, if Vision was doing what hot can do why do you now need hot ?

I used a 9kw gas heater, there was a slight difference in speed on grotty gutters/fascias but I still needed to spray them with a chemical or the hot on its own would have been slower. there was no difference in removing ingrained stains and so on.

That's because you know that there are plenty of fools with money to burn and want to line your pockets with some of it, It the same with Vision, you can slate the product and the fools who buy it but you have to take your hat off to Kempy for realising he could make money from it.

You say that.........but I’ve never seen a picture of your set up, or a picture/video of you working like many of us on here have shown. You offer nothing of any contribution or help on here. Care to prove me wrong?
Your just a troll Sean, who likes to constantly try to prove that your way is the best way, and your working at maximum efficiency and anyone else who tries to make improvements are stupid because they do things different to you.
Have you seen how many hot water setups grippatank are doing these days? They can hardly keep up with the demand. that should say it all
Really. Having hot water isn’t some kind of elite setup, it’s very affordable, when you consider it’s going to last you 10 plus years if you look after it.
When did I say vision additive replaced hot water use? I still Use Vision additive to this day, I just use a tweaked version that suits my needs better and to work along with the hot water. I’ve no invested interest in vision anymore, Kempy took it all on, and is doing very well from it with many happy customers.
Sorry for the “rant” sounding post, but from
Time to time all the other newbies on the forum need to see you for what you are.
Its a shame you push many away from
this forum with your constant need for drama though.

Dry your eyes Jonny, you wibbled on about Vision doing much the same as you now claim to be getting from hot, so I will ask you again, why does Vision no longer make you quicker, the work easier, deep clean the windows and give the superior results needed ? the joke is you havent even got the sense to know you cant justify using both.

What makes you think the marginal benefits of hot water and an additive aren’t worth it?
I absolutely believe there is benefits to additives, and I absolutely believe there is benefits to hot water.
Why would hot water negate the benefits of additives? Surely combining the two is the ultimate.
The speed that I can clean at, and the results I get have increased since using both, I regularly do internal cleaning, and I get to check my results. If you fly around a property can you guarantee there’s no pollen spots, a remnant of a snail, or a bird mess that hasn’t completely gone?
I can work as fast as possible, and also guarantee that my work is as close to perfect as you can get.
So for me...... there are benefits of both.
I’ve no doubt you possibly can clean at the same speed as me, but I do guarantee that your quality wouldn’t be as good. That’s been my experience on my work.
The fact you don’t get complaints isn’t an argument, customers might not complain over a few marks here and there, but they certainly notice.
Anyway, I’m done talking to you now, its never productive and I really should learn. I just hope that some of the newbies don’t fall for your dribble, or that some of the guys on here who want to improve don’t listen to your constant “nay saying”.
-
I think one consideration is - putting the extra costs of a professionally installed diesel heater on to a customers price. Then educating them to the benefits of having their windows cleaned with hot rather than cold.
I think most of us would admit they would go hot straight away if they could do this.

I've had a couple of customers feel the need to pick up my house and help move it and they often remark/ask if I use hot water. I explain I do and that it cleans better. they've all been impressed?

Jonny I got all this same quality rubbish back in the day from trad guys who couldn't get their heads round the fact that water on it own could clean a window to perfection , Vision, hot and I can guarantee once the next snake oil comes along it will be third on your list and even then it still wont be enough, at the end of the day there are enough idiots in this game without allowing guys like you to make more.

the other week i had a customer who had their conny demolished but the windows/frames doors round the back were covered in concrete splatter......the hot water REMOVED ALL OF IT.....after a few scrubs and a good soak.....no way would cold water do it!!
ive also had dried on egg on windows that have come off with hot water too in the past....not a chance with cold water!

they dont like to know that hot water helps remove concrete splatter......they are still in denial that hot water actually works better than cold and better than trad.
let's just ;D and leave them to think that cold water is still great 👍
