The 2045 is a great unit. Iv,e owned a white magic pro 1700 and a
Hydramaster 470D and I,m glad I own the 2045. I was going to purchase Les water cooled unit,but things got tight, and I prefer heat exchange units, so I thought I was stepping down. The 470D was a 3 cyc water cooled 31 hp. So now I own a 20 hp air cooled oh boy I,m in trouble. Suprise no problem. This unit is simple and basic and gives me full time to clean without problems.Everything is open and easy to see.No extra chemical problems no pump or diaphram or valves in the lines.
I have never been a mechanic , but have always used the owners guide to maintain the unit as required. This is the only unit that I can service and repair myself.
I had many years of service at my local interlink dealer and they were great to deal with,but now I stop by when I want to for small items.All of the BIG companys make good units,but not for me. Give the little guy a chance they will listen ang give you your dollar value for your investment. Any questions just ask me jz.
