Naw - 50 feet of 1.5 for ease of handling. Any runs over 50 I use 2 inch, as the machine is ported for 2's.

Nope, but I put his through the paces. There was 4 circuits in the shop and garage. I only needed 3 in the house. -------------

Do you bring a generator just in case the house doesn't provide the needed number of circuits?

Willy does that wand only have a single jet??
Only problem 4 hrs to setup and take down 15 minutes to clean???
Other problem is you cannot clean during peak electricity times.
Unless Homer Simpson is runnig the reactor??? ------------- Just My opinion |

Bring that baby inside in the Winter time..
 The moisture from the vac exhaust will frost the inside of your van windows big time.. Been there done that.. Warmer to work with it inside.. Work smarter not dummer.. |

It most times lives in the kitchen. I did a place yesterday that the lady had done 3 loads of laundry, showered and ran the dishwasher before I got there. The tap water was barely lukewarm- BUT- I hooked up both heaters and had screaming hot water to clean with, Most times it's only a 4 cord setup, but it's good to be able to get the water really hot with both heaters running when hot tap water isn't an option. -------------

Might have been electrician install error because it was a newer house.. Had one plugged in the kitchen one in the bathroom and the other out in the garage..! 4rms and hall.. It happened right when i finished.. The owner went downstairs and flicked the switches and nothing happened.. So he was pretty pissed at me..
 Never really found out what it was..
