All you have to do is the Math on a 120 volt circuit all you can get is 1200 watts, #1, how hot could the water get? #2 How many hp can the pump and blower be? A shop vac will trip a breaker if it`s on the same cct as something else. For every 25` of standard extension cord you loose 1 volt, , when the volts go down the amperage goes up, blows fuses(or breakers) IMO you are only looking for trouble.

Thermedix;
1200 watts per outlet? That boils down to a 10 amp max. per outlet and is alittle far fetched, IMHO, on a 120 outlet/line.
If your comments were directed toward our partcular system (one you haven't seen I'm sure), then I must comment with respect.
Generally speaking, you are close to being correct on many "generic portables" available in the market place today.......with ONE EXCEPTION. And, that exception is one that we have worked on for many, many years and have perfected it continually , especially over the past several years.
In this particular case and situation, we are speaking about 230/240 v and a much different designed system that was not only CE Approved but CE proven as well. You see, this organization will not allow anyone to "over-tax" any outlets period. Only maximum performance.
Good Fortune to all;

Ed,
You are correct, I am not familiar with your product, I am sure if you have spent years developing it, it works fine, I am a retired electrician and in North America most homes have 2 supplies for 220volt , the stove (40 amps) or the dryer (30 amps) do you pull out the appliances to gain access to these receptacles? The comment I made regarding the total wattage supplied to a receptacle (1200) refers to any receptacle on that circuit, if you heat the water electrically from the truck, you would require more than that just in heating, then the issue of the pump and blower, being motors, they are 746 watts per horse power.
I am not slamming your product, if you have figured out a way around all that, Great. Did you mean CSA approved?
In my experience, customers want a guy to pull up to the door and be totally self suffecient.

Get the 3.2.. f*gpro..
 At 100-150' it will out perform a 3/3stage portable.. I have a 3/3stage..
Portables are for short hose runs for best dry times..

This post is what I'm talking about.. Somebody's on hallucinating drugs..
Want to clearify after useing 4 portys and 2 TMs there's no way in the world 3/3stages will perform anywhere near what the Boxxer 421 can deliver and that 21hp/45blower TM..
I've ran 3/3stage..2/3stage..2/2stage..2/3with2/2stage..
 "Therefore, let me say that the other TM's you had mentioned are very nice models; however....................I doubt that they would do better than our SCORPION-3"........ BS..!
Some people have NEVER ran TM's.. So how can YOU really doubt and compare..? You can't.. Unfortunately some ppl aren't keeping it in the trenches real world..!
