As Clinton says - Restormate are the importer/dealer for the Prowler.

Perhaps you mixed up cause Amtex are the manufacturers in the USA, and the name sounds a bit like a company down south that deals with the Powerflites - Amtech.

Added later: I see the new ones have a bracket to winch it into the van. Great idea I hope I get some commission.  ;D

Looks like its going to do the business.
Very compact for a 20hp machine.

i have the 13hp 1000psi for carpets only,not doing hard floors, dont know what advantage more psi would do me or larger engine size. i run 150ft of hose from it no problem. No room in van for any more hose anyway.

Having said that i would love the lioness!

Joe do you think you use the extra power of the 15hp and 2000 psi?

I think the 13hp is a great value machine and would be interested to see how much extra the larger capacity machines are and if pro rata there is much to gain.

I have been told that they 20hp is not worth the extra 2500 quid if only being used for carpets.
I clean carpets
I dry Buildings

Andrew
If my 15hp was not available 2nd hand with just 22 hours on the clock, I would have gone for the 13hp machine (I would just have to had saved up a bit more).
I have had a go with Dave Powers 13hp and reckon its more then adequate for what majority of us use it for - average 75 foot runs, but will do up to 300' (never been more then 175' and that was one big house!
The new 13hp has 2000psi as standard.

didnt like the idea of the lioness' new 2500 pump having a max working temp of only 140 degrees - then saves itself by bypassing. That will put me off from "uprgading" in the future or I may have misunderstood.  Cant see many jobs where my 09 390 1000psi wont cut the mustard - I got 200ft with mine and cant tell any diff from 50ft.  Also reckon using the same heat exchanger at the new higher flow rate will def = lower available heat output at wand....

Looks very very nice tho  :P

I love prowlers me!!!
