I got a fog wash, haven't used it since winter 2012, I would say its not needed but it feels nice on a cold day.

Winter of 2010.

Other window cleaners in my area had nearly a solid 6 weeks off.

I managed to get a couple of days in each week and ticked over nicely. I would say if you don't want to potentially have weeks off in the winter then it's a necessity.

colin in my experience hot water is not needed but despite some pressure/hose problems last winter ill be installing mine again come the winter months.probably oct till march.

hot hoses are easier to manage on cold days and add a bit of comfort in winter.keeps the back of the van warm and windows dry a bit quicker and rinse better.

of course the warm hose keeps your hands warm as well!!

i use an L5 gas heater and 13kg gas bottle.costs me around £50-£55 a month used every day through the winter months.

Hi Colin, you're probably better of just fitting an immersion heater element straight into your tank. There's some good threads about it on here. That's how I came to fit mine. It cost me under £100 for all the bits but it has been worth it. I just plug it in for a few hours on a timer in the early hours, then I'm set for the day. Use it when I feel like it. Cheaper than the lpg set up but they can heat water instantly and much hotter than an immersion set-up.
