What kind of heat could I expect from a Prochem Legend?

[GreenTechAgain]

Thinking about getting a Prochem Legend.

Would really like the productivity gain that I think I would get from having a water supply and heat exchanger.

Currently, with my Judson I have to hook to electric for diesel burner and water supply. It's 15 minutes every job. Doesn't matter on the large jobs, but is a real PITA on smaller jobs.

Diesel burner has no problem keeping up with tile jobs, but am concerned a HX will not.

Anyone do a lot of tile with a Legend?

It won't have the heat reserve compared to a diesel burner. You'd need liquid cooled to even get close to diesel heat.

Couldn't you just add a water tank and pump system, change the diesel over to propane? It would be a lot cheaper.

Don't do tile, just carpet, it can't keep up. Maybe in Florida it would be better but here in WA no way.
My Dad lived in Springhill, nice area if you can keep the ground under you. Sinkhole capital USA!

70 degrees outside you will get about 200 +/- degree water cleaning carpet at 4 flow and 400 psi. Serious tile cleaning you'll probably get 160-170.

It's a great reliable machine, just not super hot.

Why do you need electricity for a Judson?
