I don't use a hot water system and have no intention in buying one soon, but is it really worth the punt to save a few quid and buy from a chinese ebayer ?
I know they are probably all made there but I would sooner pay a little more and buy from a uk supplier, you'll have better communication and after sales if something wrong (plus piece of mind that its going to arrive anytime soon)
Most of you insist on the best lightest wfp from a certain reputable supplier and happy to pay for the privilege yet you are willing to scrimp on a gas  boiler that you are going to self install in the back of your vans with no firm prior knowledge of how to do it ?
(judging by the amount of questions posted)

Yeah i totally agree buy the beat equiptment for everyday use, however i only want this for 2 weeks a year and mayby a few tough conservatory cleans! Apart from that i will stay cold.
I just dont want to spend £100ssss on a hot system incase i have problems, or its costing to much to run.

The second number I put in shows a heater .
Yes china - where do you think everything comes from , etc ?.??

Mine is now working into its 2nd year as is loads of other window cleaners I know .
Mine was slightly different to that on eBay now but at £90 it's been a great buy .

Work one day and it pays for itself.

If not you can buy others at £150 , £300 plus

Just thought I'd help that's all.

you have been a help to others on here, wasn't knocking it and fully aware they are all made in China  :D
Its just when you have a problem like daz and have ordered the wrong heater on a whim (  ;D ) do you want to be putting your faith in a supplier in china or a uk importer of these ?
Had a look at corwoods site and sounds like they supply with hose and fittings needed already ( but could be wrong ) , ok a little more expensive but you are dealing with a uk firm and any problems they are only a phone call away. just my opinion  ;)

About 3 or 4 quid a day,not much if it helps keep you working when its colder.
Its not everybodys cup of tea,but it makes working more bareable for me when its chilly.
What's the biggest help and isn't hot water more Likley to crack glass,?

although i found the coorwoods heater, probably the longest lasting i have used, when they break they just break, it is normally due to you letting the thing frost up, or the gas regulator in the unit bunging up and not letting gas into the heater.
the ones from ebay are perfectly good from china, especially the silver ones, there really is no difference in build quality no matter what people say on here, i have been inside at least 6 different types.

when something goes wrong with these you cant normally fix it, so i dont really know the advantages of a uk supplier unless they would replace it if not frost damaged?
however at nearly double the price and a new chinese heater getting to me within 3 days i think i will save the £80, what i do is hang the heater by a hook and have everything in the van quick release so i can protect against frost damage, being pretty simple bbq type things not much else should go wrong (only had a gas regulator break on one once before).

this is not slating corwoods at all though as i have used them and there heaters and found them both to be excellent, this is just from a money saving point of view

wow 3 days ? !
I stand corrected,
I am sure the ones corwoods supply are probably also chinese and there is undoubtedly no difference in their quality or durability. I personally would just be sceptical of buying something like a boiler from so far away. I recently bought an item of clothing as a birthday present for my daughter from china, her birthday has been and gone and although ordered a full week earlier , was only sent an email confirmation of its dispatch the day after her birthday last weekend ! still waiting for its delivery.
