Jonny did u see reflections post on servicing his 9kw hydroheat?
HE S NEVER HAD IT SERVICED IN 4 YEARS!and it works just the same as the day he first used it.he also uses his all day everyday.....

these heaters are very reliable....

I did mate. I’m glad they seem very reliable. 

First full day with it today and it’s great.

Have you had the 9kw heater from grippa upright or landscape.

I’ve had the landscape cabinet. It’s a good cabinet, takes up hardly any room with the footprint of it.

Is yours the 9 kw what you getting temp wise I was getting 50-60 degrees out of my 5.2 kw heater

Would these do the job or not enough KW?

My problem is too much temperature! lol.

Literally can’t put your hand under it even when it’s set on minimum. Haven’t done a temperature check at the brush head. I think it’s because I’m running my second pump on a recirculation feature back to the tank, so the heater is running constantly. I had to turn the heater off at lunch time because water in the tank was reading 50 degrees.

it will be hot with another pump going back to the tank!my heater runs all day too(on full) but no second pump so the temperature in the tank doesnt get to crazy levels!you ll just have to turn the heater off at lunchtime every day(it should save you a little on diesel costs)

[NWH]

With my other van I had it drawing diesel from the fuel tank it didn’t really notice tbh I fill my van up at the beginning of the week.

[NWH]

Hopefully they’ll fit that return to tank pump for me too.

Hopefully they’ll fit that return to tank pump for me too.

Yes they will for both pumps for you.  You need a return to tank set up for frost protection.

Daz I don’t know how you get yours to keep running all day without a second pump?

After about 2-3 minutes of me stopping the water at the brush head it starts powering down. Then you hear the jet noise as it starts up again.

I’m Trying to avoid that by having it heat my tank too.

I’m not even noticing the diesel cost so far, plus I power the heater off just after lunch time because I can’t even out my hand in the tanks water, lol.

[The Jester of Wibbly]

I'm surprised Daz has not invested in a second pump.   The running cost savings will pay for it eventually.

[NWH]

My other heater I used to return to tank manually but having the pump will be better not having to keep plugging it in,being 9kw and returning to tank should keep it pipeing hot

i keep mine running all day.......if i need to stop for more than 3 mins i plug it back into tank......


i never stop for more than 3 mins unless im driving or its lunchtime.if a customer makes me a brew i plug back into tank....

im not bothered...it works fine the way mine is set up....

[dazmond]

Hopefully they’ll fit that return to tank pump for me too.

grippa will not fit you a second pump unless you ve specifically asked for it.......

On my last job today I tested it out, one pump running to my pole, other pump Turned off.

It was less than a minute before the heater started shutting down. Literally by the time I got back to my van.

I wonder if that’s because my tank water was already pretty hot. It could be......

[The Jester of Wibbly]

It should not go into shut down mode after a one min.  It probably went into idle mode after a min to keep the system running without needing to start up again.  It  will then take a couple more mins go into full shut down mode.

[NWH]

They don’t go straight into poop down mode it depends what stage it’s at when you turn off the pump sometimes you’ll have a few minutes sometimes you’ll have longer,what I’ve done in the past is plugged straight back into tank when I get back to the van but I still have the water running until I get back anyway so it wouldn’t shut off

[dazmond]

jonny it doesnt go into shut down mode for around 3 mins,it goes into a "half heat" standby mode then fires up fully when you turn your tap back on......

if you leave it any longer than 3 mins then it will power down(this is a 3 min cycle)and even if you turn your tap back on during this cycle the burner wont fire up properly for 6 mins (as you cant interrupt it once it goes into its shut down cycle).......

hope this helps.....
