has anyone got one of the hotwash systems from peter forwill, i see that he is selling them on ebay now, but how to they compare to the L5? seems like that can heat the van, run 2 pumps off 1 hotwash and there is no cut out, it seems like a good deal?

the ones on ebay are L5 with no modification, you will have to wait if you want the van mount with all the kit.

i rang emailed and text at least 30 times, no really response.

and they were 495 on website so something cant be the same for them to be over half the price.

[ian1972]

[Dave Willis]

I would be interested as have not yet ordered the L5, (looking for alternatives) but I have read on here so many times how bad Peter is at answering emails and such that it puts me off.
Basicaly, if you buy from him you are on your own if you have problems.

I always answer my phone, and if a customer wants me for anything they know how to get me.  Sometimes at night, and even on a Sunday.  The HotWash is Guaranteed for a year along with all the parts.  Do you know anyone who has sent their L5 back to the USA to have it fixed under guarantee?  I wouldn't think so, I would guess they get thrown away and a new one bought.

Thanks for the reply Peter.  I stand corrected

[[GQC] Tim]

I don't understand the bit about being able to fill the tank up at the local petrol station? It says in the description you need to use your own red LPG gas bottle?

What's the "lpg tank with remote filler" all about?

And ps. can we not bypass the insurance problem by just using one of these? :

Tim, the tank I am using is a different version of the tank in the link.  The one in the link is for the spare wheel space. the one I am using would fit in the boot of a car.  They need to be secured whatever one you use, and instead of securing in the boot I will be securing on a metal frame that will be secured to the vehicle chassis.  You will also find that for most LPG car conversions they will use quite big gas tanks so as they can get quite a distance between fills.  If I used a tank that size it would last years.  We only need a small amount and I have went for a 10L one,  It has a gauge and when you see it quarter full you can top it up for around £2.80.  Using the gas in this way will pay for the system in no time at all.

The listing is for the water heater only, no LPG tank, no overnight thermostat, no exhaust extraction, and no securing frame. If you buy the water heater from the listing then you would need your own gas supply, and the easist way to get it up and running is a gas bottle.  A gas bottle in a van is safer than having a spare can of petrol, and lots of tradesmen carry them around connected to blowtorches etc, but there is more of a tendency to leak through connections etc.  With the LPG tanks there is a sealed box around the valve and filler attachment and gauge, with a pipe leading to outside the vehicle, so has no chance of any gas escaping into the vehicle.
 
For the complete package I will be doing for £499 plus delivery and VAT for at least two months, and then I will review the price later on.
 
A few people from ebay have asked if they can add the other stuff on later, and the answer is yes, the heater just slides into the frame at any time.
 
Insurance keeps cropping up and I am working on something for the insurance companies.
