I know I am being picky but I'm not liking the heater switch. It looks odd and is without power indicator bulb.

On our twin vac advance it's the same as all of the others.

I wonder if they ran out of switches  :o

There again i like the idea of a shared switch rather than another plug ::)

Impossible done straight away, miracles can take a little longer.

They used to be a plastic one to adjust the pressure but guess with a clout it would give ::)

but you turn that "negative" into a "positive" Clinton.

It might be cheaper for YOU to run then a TM, but its not cheaper for the householder - using their eleccy, and their water (how many are on water meters these days).

So you sell them the fact its not costing THEM for eleccy or water.
(but it is costing them cause its in the bill they pay).

The Alltec is very quiet,mainly because of the thickness of its body. Also heater cuts off when third vac is on and visa versa, so customer consumer unit isn't over -loaded.

  The Alltec would be heavy to take upstairs but I'd treat it as a small portable Truck-mount and use my Aqua 40 upstairs where needs be.
