Please can you tell me the benefit of heating the water and is it worth the money and hassle. Thank you.

Really glad I went hot, really really helps in the winter and first cleans (as been said)

you get a better clean...hot cleans better than cold

Hot water makes cleaning more time efficient, from washing machines, dishwashers and most of all steam cleaners. Its a no brainer ;-)

Why is it more time efficient do you rinse less? With cold water the glass only needs a couple of scrubs so wouldn't think that side of it would be a time saver.

As so much dirt is made up of greasy pollution from traffic which the hotter water just cleans so easy.

went hot this year ( DIY )

the time saved in using soft supple hoses alone is worth it

much better cleaning of 1st cleans and all the add on stuff ( c/roofs - cladding - S/F/G's )
removes the crud quicker than cold

but no advantage when cleaning reg.  4 and 8 weekers

Got hot and will be using probably most of the year it's definitely quicker on stubborn soiling and dries quicker ( less chance for them that don't like wet windows )
It is not expensive to run the propane heaters search for the best suppliers.
