its a bit big (100mm diameter x 2m length) its the very flexible stuff, like thick foil, but very bendy unlike the hard alternative.
its £14.95 but i had mine for £10

but it comes with a big jubilee clip, i might need to do a bit of fettling to it still, it goes through a hole in the floor which was installed to allow the water in and water out for the merlin. its kinda square too, which isnt ideal. im going to get a carbon monoxide alarm as well.

its being supported at the top by a small black bungee cord

peter fogwill back support is awesome too, i lost the drain plug for it, and he sent me a new one in a few days!

I haven't got a thermostatic controller on mine. What controller have you got & where did you get it from?



Hi nat do you by any chance use a inline thermostatic controller on your hot wash because i put mine in the week end and had no end of problems cheers dave

Does the vent work ok? I thought hot air would rise rather than sink through the floor.

Got thre PF 9kw system. The main advantage is I think they are the only company that have full hot controll on both pumps. i.e. i can run one pump hot and one luke warm if I wish. The installation and back up is first class and as for service as they are engineers they are the only window cleaning suppliers that can carry out service work.
Do you need to have the 'gas safe' certs to fit the gas systems?

I have the Purefreedom twin user as well,paid a lot for it but for me it's been money well spent,but can see why people would prefer a cheaper option too,down to personal choice me thinks.

Make a plywood bracket (4 fogwash) and mount it on the back door(s) with self tappers, that way the C.O goes straight upwards with out poncing about with flue's ( btw peter reckons they dont like 90 degree bends?) - Ive got 1 on each back door, to feed each hose reel (via flow controllers). You CAN split 1 hotwash between two reels, but if one man turns his tap off, then your temp will rise. No worries in summer but maybe in the winter!, and thats why i bought another one. Also tim above come up with a good idea of fitting temp gauges to your poles as a precaution, which im now doing, its my first winter so im worried about cracking glass. Watch this space.

TBH I don't think their are any advantages as such to diesel over gas. However I have no regret with my purefreedom hot 9kw heater with its smart digital display. would recommend them to anyone. Its your call dazmond.... Purefreedom hot or an l5 heater both good and both do the same job to be fair , only one of them is more professional looking and will cost alot more but you will have peace of mind that the frost stat is reliable and the guys in Grimsby will always be willing to help. Or if you go for the l5 you could be sorting out probs yourself all the time and on this forum asking for help. If your serious about your business then purefreedom pips it for me  ;D
