There’s an adjuster both ends or there was like my 9kw from Grippa,minus equates to winter and + summer.

You can buy a needle valve that screws on the end of the heat exchanger that will enable him to be able to adjust the temperature,you’re get a more accurate temperature reading with a TDS meter with temperature feature on it.

The needle valve screws in one end of the plate exchanger across the top of it and in to the other end.

I know things can change, but Streamline used to use a mixer valve so you could regulate the temperature of the water leaving the diesel heater.

https://www.butlertechnik.com/webasto-mixer-valve-kit-p1793

The only ones who use the electronic temperature control built in the Webasto 90 and 90S and the Pro90 were Ionics. They don't use a mixer valve for temperature control. I can't remember which colour wire Ionics use from the Webasto wiring harness to connect up to their winter and summer rocker switch. Webasto 9.1kw has 3 water temperature range settings. Leaving the wire unconnected (mine has been cut off) is the first setting, the second is earthing that wire and the third is adding a 12v positive supply.

There's absolutely no need.just leave it on full heat setting all year round.
price higher/work harder!

Don't forget the hose lying on  the ground is going to  cool the water down in this weather.

So are you gonna fanny around with the settings depending on the window?

Remember in winter on a very cold day with lots of hose off your reel the temperature at brush end will be warm not scalding hot anyway even on full heat setting....

In summer it will be very hot which helps with the clean

I just leave mine on full heat all year round.sometimes on the ridiculously hot days like we had last summer(30c+)I turn it off altogether

You obviously don’t work rurally then Daz if I was to just go full heat on every job this time of the year I would be paying a fair bit out in cracked glass.

I work rurally and have not had a problem with it on full heat.,as Daz said im not messing about trying to guess what setting to put it to, might as well turn it off altogether..

So are you saying rural glass is different to town glass ??  We do loads of both it is fine with maximum heat even on single glazing provided it’s not got any existing damage  we clean tens of thousands of pains each year and in 8 years have cracked 4 I think all had existing damage

If I pull up to the job and it has single pain glass in wood frame I’ll quickly turn heat right down takes a second before pulling out hose then turn up for next job it’s not often I need to do this but it’s nice to be able too
