New TM

[Lance Golden]

View attachment 1350 Had this beast installed last week. Great machine... Does everything advertised, and then some.

 

[Lee Stockwell]

Well it should...a week old?

Congrat!...and keep us posted.

 

[Lance Golden]

Will do, Lee. I had a BL ThermalWave HP So I feel like I have a "benchmark" on what to expect. BTW the pic of the temp was @ 600 psi on "medium" speed... and held that temp.
I only run RO/DI thru it, so I don't have the deposit issues most go thru...

Congrats on the new TM, I'm glad to finally see someone we know that has one now. Keep us posted, I was down to choosing between the 870 and the PC 650 HP. I am very satisfied with the 650 so far and it is just as powerful as my Vortex and heats up faster.
Hope the 870 works out great for you!

Lucky bast$rd. Actually luck probably had nothing to do with it. Hard work=nice new SS unit. I just bought a used TM and had it installed at Interlink in Seattle. Been playing with it all day!

Id be very interested in your dual wand performance thoughts seeing how you've used a Vortex many times

 

[SamIam]

nice i know you will love it

 

[jmo]

Looks good

I saw it demoed at the Proline once. Seemed to hold the heat pretty well. Hopefully it is reliable and easy to maintain. I would think it should perform well.

I hope I posted it correctly...

I haven't had a chance to run dual wand yet... 30 hours no problems... yet. Still the honeymoon stage

I do NOT run "rinse agents... RO/DI only " The chem injector is Off

Congrats! Need an airmover to blow those steam clouds away. Also nice to be doing that kinda work in the daytime.

 

[juniorc82]

damn dude you where cleaning carpet at 1000 psi?

 

[alazo1]

Congrats on the new tm. 100 psi, holly crap I think you set a new record.

Is your ro/di made on demand?

I am glad you are happy with it. I am waiting for mine to be installed next week.

 

[Lance Golden]

Albert,
Yes I make the RO/DI on location. My unit produces about 2 GPM of RO, then I run thru a small DI cartridge to a 35 gallon "static" tank, then demand pumped to the 870.

And actually it was 1,000 psi, with a "tweaked manifold" for "shear" off the slotted glide. Some areas were dry to touch before I left.

Yes Sir, living on the edge... 4td 25' off the Y ... I also forgot to mention, I had it running on "medium" speed. Haven't seen a need to run on "high" ... yet

 

[BLewis]

Here's my PC 650 HP, I only cared to set the psi to 800 but I also didn't have the heat turn up all the way either!

I think if you click on pic a video will pop up

Nuke em baby!

And Hogjowl, don't go into convulsions looking at the overspray!

 

[Lance Golden]

I couldn't see the video... It said "video could not be found"

 

[SamIam]

Ya both look like they fog up the joint pretty well, next question how cold was when You shot these vids? and how much for the 870? I know the 650 runs about 28k.

My restaurant was about 70 inside with outside temp of 50. For the record I was just playing around having some fun. I would never clean on going at that temp.

 

[Lance Golden]

Almost identical temps inside and out... cieling fans were all on high, and had an axial airmover running. Probably less humidity here.

I think the 870 retails around 28K also

Whenever I see steam lie that, my first thought is of wasted energy.
