Design input from two of the World's leading heater manufacturers
With design input from two of the World’s leading heater manufacturers, it’s no surprise Magma is no ordinary in-line heater.
The first difference you’ll notice is the weight. Magma is a heavier inline heater. But isn’t this a disadvantage? Not if you want maximum heat:
Magma heaters contain more metal, which gives you better heat transfer, and a very clever internal design that gives you even more heat, plus less temperature fluctuation when cleaning.
Hot water straight from cold with no preheating needed
The next thing you’ll notice is the amount of heat you get with stone cold water in the tank of your machine.
With most inline heaters, you are lucky to get barely warm water if you start with cold water in the tank. However, with the Magma heater, you really can get consistent hot water direct from cold.
Allow Magma to warm up, then clean at around 200psi for a few minutes. Now carefully check the brass quick connects – BE CAREFUL, they will be hot!
Now continue to clean, making 4 normal passes with the wand, followed by 4 dry passes. Cleaning in this way allows the heater to keep up and gives you consistently hot water at the wand.
For steam boosted cleaning
For steam boosted cleaning opt for the 110 degree option. Preheat using Magma’s pre heat facility to preheat the water in the clean tank while you set up the rest of your gear. Now set the thermostat to maximum and prepare for some seriously hot cleaning.
Any fan of steam boosted cleaning will tell you how easily you can cut through heavy, greasy soiling. With the power to remove wax, Blu Tack and even chewing gum, you will be impressed by the results.
But with the control you need
The problem with having a fantastic heater is that lots of heat is not always a good thing. For example, when cleaning heat sensitive fabrics.
Most heaters are not adjustable so the risk of damage can be a problem when cleaning delicate fabrics with the heater on.
The Magma heater is fully adjustable. So if you’re worried about too much heat? No problem. Just turn it down.
