Hi guys.

I've been backwards and forwards as to whether to get a water heating add on at all and have decided to take the plunge. Any thoughts/experience will be greatly appreciated.

I've narrowed it down to two:

- The Pure Freedom (5+k 1man diesel) system

- The Poseidon (lpg) system

The Pure Freedom system is ~ £2500 with a frost protection thermostat with fitting included. It runs off the diesel tank in the van but costs a bit more to run i think.

The Poseidon system is £637 with a frost protection thermostat + fitting and runs off a seperate lpg tank which will cost less then any diesel set up.

It's obvious which one wins the 'cheapest' catagory but i want something that is professianal, hassle free and reliable. Any advice/ideas gents?

Thanks... Tim

Poseiden is fitted with gas bottle had mine fitted yesterday

So you don't have to drive to a specific lpg gas station then? That saves some hassle. Thanks.

[lyndy]

No you don't,It's well fitted,but I would say Purefreedom one would be more pro looking,at the end of the day we worked yesterday and out today,with cold system no chance

[T1M_]

that's true. was there a fitting cost lyndy?

[lyndy]

£100 fitted mine in nottingham

I just went for the cheap one without frost protection

I've just spoke to him and he's going to try and send me some photos to my email from a job he did a few days ago. I wanted to see the size of the chimmney on the roof....

[lyndy]

I only use my iPhone so not sure how to post,the chimney looks fine,there is a charge of £22 for one that don't let water in

Here's the chimney

[lyndy]

That's my van lol

no way! small world. hope you don't mind. i can delete if you like. you had any teething problems with it?

[lyndy]

It's ok,you have to have it on a high flow rate before it will work,the water comes out really hot then gets cooler then really hot,I've got a 100 meter 8mm thick hose,think I may need shorter and 6mm hose,because I think the water cools done with the long hose

you have to have it on a high flow rate before it will work

How high a flow rate?
