I've heard little so far about Peter's hot water system.
If this winter is going to be anything like as cold as last year, for an outlay of approx £400 I'd sure as hell like to hear more about from anyone has got one.
If it is possible to retro-fit to my own system then I'm going to look into this for my own selfish reasons.
Thank god we have people like Peter and Alex, both are innovative and cause genuine change and impact on the area of Water Fed Pole...

What I know so far is:
Its gas fired,.. based on the caravan heater type boiler I think, so similar to an L5 but with a CE mark and a case designed to take a flue/chimney.
Its battery powered (2 "D" sized ones normally) and automatically switches on and off as it senses water flow start & stop.
The frost protection system it seems is designed to switch the WFP pump on & off with the aid of a temperature sensor, so you simply leave the heater switched on at night with your hose flowing back to the tank. I guess Peter has had one designed to run for a set interval & reset, so that if for some reason the heater does not fire up first time, it'll attempt again a few minutes later if the temp has not already risen.
Peter is talking about selling it as a kit including all you need to vent it out the van roof,..
