Hi guy's, Finally got my hot water set up today   Just wondering what max temp I should clean with without the risk of cracking any glass    I thought I saw on here that it should be no more than 30 degree's above glass temp

Tony

 it is very hard to regulate the heat of water at the brush head, i have a purefreedom hot system which unlike the ionic system can be regulated to any temperature but this only relates to the heat of water when it leaves the system by the time it reaches the brush head many things can vary the temperature dramatically, for instance if using 100 metres of layed hose on frosty ground then the temperature of water will be 80 degrees at the van  but by time it gets to the brush it is lucky to be 30 degrees however if only 50 metres of hose is laid and the rest is on the reel then the water is very hot at brush head and would need temperature turning down, likewise in summer the water doesnt loose much heat in the hose so temperature can be turned down, it takes a bit of getting used to what temperature to set water at but you soon get used to roughly what heat will be lost in the hose.

I am thinking about two of these for me and partner.
Could one bottle be rigged up to both L5's?
And any chance of a picture of the set up, If you dont want it on here, Maybe Emailed to me, Kharnd@googlemail.com

Would be very appreciated, 

here you go..............

I really liked your setup here well done!!

[Panorama]

is there a huge difference to your insurance since you are carrying a gas bottle

[TC1]

Not sure, haven't told them yet 

[Jeff Brimble]

Very cool set up, one of the best I have seen, well done to a pro finish. 

[ant french]

i have 2 options, i can fill up from my hot tap,  or i can get hot water from a garage near me,  after speaking to gardiners, all they said was it might wear my pump out quicker  and it might wear my brushes out quicker,  it is only  a trial at the mo,   just want the water warm rather than hot,  if i like it, i will box my van in and isulate my van properly

would it be a sauna in summer lol

Looks the nuts tone, come and do mine please bestest mate  ;Dlol

That looks good Tony.

Did you have it last winter? Just wondered if it works well.

Bob.

[Panorama]

tony do you have it on the lowest temp setting

[TC1]

Yeah, Its the opposite to what you think though, it has to be on the max on the water regulator dial, not min.

Hi Bob

I have only just fittted it, cleaned with it last thursday & friday and with a little tinkering I got the right temp. We will see what its like in the real cold a bit later this week.

have you noticed if the windows dry any quicker

[TC1]

Not sure really, haven't really checked. It is however better at cleaning bird & spider poo but the biggest benefit is how much easier the hoses are to handle

Thank you for the pics Tony.
Just got your email, and completely forgot I asked you to put some up!

I am thinking of getting two of these or two hotwash systems, Depending on specs really.

Do you have any flu for fumes etc or is it ok? And does the gas last a reasonable amount of time?

Also am wondering how much of a difference it makes on insurance, they always ask me if I carry gas when getting quotes. Must make a difference.

Top setup mate!!

I don't have any flu/vent (yet) but I probably will soon, as I clean with the tailgate open most of the time, but if its windy I may have problems keeping the L5 alight, so may have to close the door and don't wanna start falling asleep after every clean : Not sure how much gas it uses, but I dont expect to change the gas for quite a while. I haven't informed the insurance company about carrying gas yet, but I am going to be doing this sometime this week and will let you know.

[monkeyboy950]

does anyone know how long the gas will last.

[Panorama]

does anyone know how long the gas will last.

tony following on from the above quote. now that you have been using your l5 for a week, how as your gas consumption been? have you had to change the cylinder yet? and what size where you using?
