Hows the hot box been treating you? Any issues with it? Was it worth the purchase?
No issues, use it on every job.
Always use hot water.
Hotsy has a 7 year replacement on pumps.
How much more are they compared to an equivalent pressure washer of the same or similar specs. 30% more in price?
To have a pump that stands up to the demand and have 60% more life span; I think it is worth it. HOTSY tends to go overboard but the value and quality u can’t beat.
My first machine, I have had for 7 years. I bought it used with weekend operation with continuous running. I have had 1 issue due to my negligence and the pump was replaced without question. Sometimes it is better to build a relationship with the local supplier than to buy cheaper. Buying local not only stimulates your local economy but it establishes a relationship that allows you to get back to work sooner than tracking down vendors and waiting for replacement parts to ship and still having to pay for labor to repair.
My vendor fixes my machine on the spot. No matter what. I have never had to leave it over night. So yes it is well worth the money to me when I consider all the additional conveniences that come with it.
“I downstream everything and use back pack and 3 gal pump up sprayers for my 3 step truck washing process. So I never run chemicals through my pump and I always use hot water.”
