Sounds about right Ricky,  three and a half grand in thirty five hours.
The average Truckmount earns £100 an hour on the clock! ;)

The red 13hp Prowler I understand now has the 2000psi pump fitted as standard.
But you can still clean tile & grout without the high pressure.

Is that watercooled Tony.
Watercooled will be quieter then an air cooled, as you will know being a motorcyclist.

Ricky,

Sorry to dissapoint you but I can't keep up with all the different specs of the prowler I thought the bigger one had 2000psi or something,  but thanks for answering the question anyways.

Mike
The 315 (yellow one) does have a 2000 psi pump.
The 13hp used to, then it went down to 1000psi but now its gone back up to 2000psi
I think the blower is now the same as the 315.
So you get the 315 except for the engine which is still 13hp.
I believe they have suspended production in the USA of the 315 due to demand of the 13hp and the bigger prowlers ie the red one JK had at CCDO, so now you get a better deal on the 13hp.

We've had a Prowler 313 (2000psi) for two years now and I wouldn't be without it.  Got a job to do with it tomorrow (Sunday), two of us are doing it mainly to take turns on the wand and  alleviate cramps from squeezing the trigger, job is priced at £1000 +vat. 

We're starting at 8am and should hopefully be finished and back at home for roast beef dinner by 1:30pm.  The machine is all prepped and ready to go, only time the machine should stop is when it needs the filter cleaned or refuelled.

As a concession we'll be running it directly from an outside tap, waste is getting fed directly into a surface drain.

Of course there are bigger and more powerful machines out there by different manufacturers, there's even a couple of bigger Prowlers, namely the Scirroco and the Inferno.  However what I like about the Prowler is the ease of operation, the fact that theres no waste water and it can be lifted in and out of the van easily.

This is a silly queation I know, but does the prowler have heat?

The red one has a 13hp petrol engine, the yellow one a 15hp petrol engine.
Petrol engines develop heat. Capture that heat with a heat exchanger and you have hot water - very hot water - like 230 degree F.   Thats enough.
