Great looking machine , so many features , you got all the extras . Does it suck good  ?

[Dave_Lee]

Yeah it's a good sucker, did all my research, I wanted the best and so pleased that the Alltec machine ticked all the boxes.

awesome machines I have 2 of these and they never fail to impress always get good comments on how good they look.
have you brought some cleaning products there just as good happy cleaning

[mr muzzy]

how much was it dave did you get a hose and wand with it too

[CleanerCarpets]

looks a good machine

i had the Alltec Advance twin vac and reminds me of the good old days of starting out on my own

why 2 inline heaters? does one raise the temp for the other to raise it further when using higher psi?

i bet its a tight squeeze inside there for servicing/replacing parts

[Lewis Newby]

What vacs and pump are in it? And is it heavy? Looks great though!

2 inline heaters?
Are you sure I think it's 1 immersion and 1 inline.
Great looking machines, and you can't go wrong with the guys and girls at Alltec.

[john martin]

It would be about a 1000w heater on each cord ...that is why there is two switches . Why that way ...because the spare current is there on each cord so they are making use of it .. why not just have a 3 kw external in line you say ....why not have both the inbuilt and a 3 kw external I say . Than u have a 5 kw fire breathing dragon.

Answers to questions:-
Inline heater(s)  it's not got two just the one 2Kw with 2 stage control switches.
Vacs - 2 x Electro 3 stage 1600watt 2.5 HP.
Cost - Just under £3,500..

I have a Blueline Thermal Wave HP 2 Vortec, TM which I have had for 8 years, this Alltec machine is purely for use as a standby. Nothing worse than being halfway through a job and something goes wrong with your extractor, and you cannot finish the job the same day. Hopefully I won't put too many, if any, hours on this new machine, but it will be there just in case - peace of mind.

I should add that I also received the usual outstanding service from John Kelly at Restormate, in supplying me with a Nu-Matic Rotary set up.

But you have to have your two cords plugged in to run the two switches on the inline heater ? 
so the heater is like this  ...   two joined together to make one .  But each powered from a separate cord .

Yes John, I believe that is correct. Both cables have to be used.
Dave.

[john martin]

sure , other wise an electro motor (7amps and a  2kw heater(9amps) on one cord would be  15 amps .
They have to keep to <13 per cord .
So  its probably like .
cord one -  electro motor 7amp  , heater (about 4amp )  pump ( about 3 max ) 
 cord two - electro motor 7amp , heater (about4amp )  APO pump ( about 0.5 to 1amp )

The immersion dont matter because its only used to preheat when vacs are off .

Id say its tight on cord one to be under 13amps , id like to see a current meter on it .. but perhaps the pump is about 2

you seem to be spending a lot of cash on new gear Dave, isn't about time an old timer like you put his feet up? probably at the side of some mountain.

[Dave_Lee]

Missed this one Colin. Its all about peace of mind, knowing that now I shouldn't have massive downtime. Always the possibility of changing to Van Mount.
