I can't believe no ones mentioned it yet? 😂😂

Front protection system ot heaters in the van?   Or do you just put a box set on and think sod this.  😂

Oil filled radiator in van next to my hose reel overnight

Broom and ice melt grit for customers that want me to grit their driveway/path.

That's it. Business as usual.

Are you not using the frost protection system on your hot water system?

Frost protection on PF heater only protects heater, not the rest of your kit in van.

Not on the Grippatank hot water setup.  It works a treat for me.  It circulates hot water through the hoses and back to the tank.   When water temp drops to 2 degrees it kicks in for 5 mins. 

Keeps everything fully defrosted.

Which oil filled radiator is suitable . 500 watt , 1500 or 2000. Never used one before . So no idea . I presume you just leave it on a low setting all night ?

No I don't use it because I don't like disturbing neighbours with it as it will fire up  3 or 4 times on a cold night. It's loud in the middle of the night...

I've had neighbours knocking on my door at 3am before now thinking there was something wrong with my van!🤣🤣

First job and it froze on the glass  it wasn't like this years ago I'm sure.

Of course it was! I remember when I was a cold water cleaner back in 2010 and the same thing happened to me on very cold days.

No problems with hot water. In fact I've been defrosting skylights and window sills all day!😄

I arrived at my first job to find one of my customers frantically trying to scrape the ice off her car so I defrosted the whole car within a minute! She was so happy and grateful!👍

I wouldn't dare put my brush on a custys car, i cleaned my lads car and found scratch marks on the roof. Dont care about my own vehicles but plenty of people are very precious about theirs.
