hi allsorry to ask the same questions but im realy thinking about getting a hot system so whati want to know of the experts that use them isare the realy worth the extra investmentIt really depends how much you invest. Some DIY systems cost about £200,.. some beand name ones cost £7k. There are also the running costs to considerare the that much better than coldI think so,.. especially on first cleans & conservatory workare customers more impressed that your using hot water instead of coldMany of my customers have commented on it,.. in fact I was told that the local splash & dash guy "needs to get hot water because the results with cold are rubbish". You can clean just as well with cold, but the fact that it sets me above the competition in the customers mind has won me jobs i'm sure.are they better for shop fronts and conserverty roofsQuicker yes,.. better is a tough question because given a bit more time cold will do the same quality of work on all but the worst dirtand are the exspensive to run About £1.50 - £2 per day for gas,.. £4 or £5 for diesel. If you have a seperate diesel tank for the heater you can use green fuel which cuts costs a lot.sorry so many questions but i just carnt decide what to dothanks dave
Nathanael,sorry this maybe a silly question but in tempretures 0c and minus is the hot water system still working.Its not a miracle solution,.. in sub zero temps it will work, but you still get slowed down by road conditions & having to salt footpaths etc before you work. I did work a few days last winter where I wouldn't have been able to with a cold system, so it does help earn a bit more in the winterI thought hot wate freezes quicker than cold, so will water freeze on the glass?I've only had it happen once when cleaning an unheated commercial premesis,... I just kept going & the hot water melted the ice that had formed & I managed to clean away. It did take twice as long as normal cleaning, so I'm glad it doesn't happen a lot!Also is the a danger of cracking glass due to temp differences between glass and water?It is always a danger. It has never happened to me, but I am very careful in the winter & turn the heat right down. I think the rule of thumb is no more than 20 degrees above ambient.thanks lee
i have the purefreedom hot system , i dont use it on all jobs but when i do use it then it makes a big difference its brilliant for first cleans and long interval between cleans, also brilliant on properties where there are lots of snail trails but my main use for it is removing egg from windows as we do a lot of student accomodation and i think they think it is part of their course work to throw egg on windows,
