That's impressive, is it a three man set up? what van interior is it?

Yes, its a three man set up with choice of hot water, installed in  a LWB Ford Transit

I employ and there is no way that I would have a system from Purefreedom.

I have seen a recently fitted Purefreedom system and although it looks OK there are major safety problems in my opinion. The frame has no real strength. It is thin 90 degree stainless with no diagonal strengthening sections at all. The whole thing would fold and buckle in any reasonable impact.

Cheap Wydale tanks have no strength so a properly designed and engineered frame is essential for safety. I can't comment on the saftey of the fixing to the chassis because I did not look but even if it it as it should be the frame could easilly rip away from the floor due to it's poor design and inadequate materials used.

sounds like somebody has got sour grapes with all at purefreedom lol

I had my system fitted in january and i havnt had a single problem with it yet as for fitting it was commented on when my van had its mot last month how well it was fitted to my chasis of my vito

Adepta are engineers.  My feelings are that they wouldnt manufacture the products they do, most specifically fitted systems, if they wernt prepared to 'walk the walk' as well as 'talk the talk'.

'Over-engineered' is how Ive heard PureFreedom systems described. Im happy enough to believe that. If someone feels the systems arent up to the job Id firstly ask the person what experience and qualifications they have in the field of engineering to be able to substantiate what theyve said.

When you get there the system will already have been made up, they just need to fit the box of goodies into your vehicle.

Real nice set of guys there, they have a laugh with the custy, make you a cuppa in the morning, Andrew will drive you back to town and ring you when the thing is done then come and pick you up.

Theres a good pub just inside the town centre complex where they do all-day brekkie, I went in there at 9am and sat there with a paper and whiled away 2 or so hours, with 2 breakfasts, coffee and The Sun.

Then move on to the fishing museum, you can lose another 2 hours there. Its interesting and very well presented there. Then unfortunately, thats it, Grimsby isnt exactly the hub of cosmopolitan life on the east coast. You could go for a swim in the sea I suppose  8)

I was going to get an Omnipole system fitted as I heard they were very good,however I had seen a window cleaner and got talking to him in which he had a system fitted by Omnipole,very impressive I thought to myself but looking at the system I though they are very professional looking but alot of space is wasted,everything with Pure Freedom is very compact,even their trolly systems and I never regreted driving up from Surrey to get a system fitted last year,everything is top notch,would do it again if I had to ;)
I am sure Omnipole systems are just as good or even better but space is crutial to me,I drive a Transit T280 and have a 500 litre system fitted by Pure Freedom right against the bulk head,I can also fit four bicycles in easy or my dirtbike when need to.
I just think Pure Freedom make eveything so campact and is alot easier in my opinion ;D
Everyone has different ideas for their system but Pure Freedom worked for me.

I got to PureFreedoms at about 8.10 a.m and had a cuppa and a chat with th eguys, we left those premises about half an hour later and took the van round to the workshop. Left there about 9.00 and got dropped off by Andrew in town. I reckon I got the call at about 3.00. He was already waiting for me in at the pick up point we'd agreed when he called. It starts to get real boring by then. Apart from the museum theres nothing to do, its a tedious and long-winded day. Theres no getting away from it. Thats why guys get the B+B.

I took a long walk up a real long street, towards a tower on the skyline, out towards the sea-front, but it started to get to be looking like a real dodgy area and that was before the recession, I bet it looks like Steptoes yard now.

Anyway, be prepared to be bored  ;D

Not the way we install the system
