LOL Post was meant for all shooting out specs, stats etc. without no real end user testing with VIDEOS . My post shows my set up .
Everyday ? H>>> no. I'm part time. 6-10 jobs per week (3-4 days) in the busy season. 8.4s are approaching 1400 hours per hour meter. Full time ....gas TM
Here in the staes we can't count on 240 vt being available et every location which is what the Escape requires. May be great in the UK etc.. However dig deeper and you will find there has been many ongoing problems since day one. Your Cleanstorm or similar with a pair rear mounted booster motors is a better choice IMO. Imperative you add Fossil fueled heat source to compete with a high flow more efficient truckmount.
Your cleanstorm like my Jag would still be TRULY portable which the Escape is not.
Yeah , a few things are a bit different here , fossil fuel are rarely used compared to the states , perhaps in part because 3kw electric heat ... or two electric heaters are not too bad here . Could also be lack of availability and fire risk concerns .
Also ... American houses , many seem to have grass between door and parking area , certainly in my area u can almost always drive right up to the door and around the house , making any van mount u might have use less hose , and also making it easy to use a portable .
The Escape didnt take off here , i have no doubt that some of the UK companies could make a much better attempt refinement wise .
Dont think anyone has rear boosted the Storm , again most probably find performance 'adequate ' for close range work .
TMs ... i think you can work fulltime with an electric machine without killing yourself , depends on how much u take on and charge i suppose . I would probably have been tempted by now but im in an area with no TM sales or service . Only one guy in my area bought a huge newTM/sprinter a few years back , the recession seemed to wipe him out ... im still here , would definitely have one if living in the states .
