Like - importing or bought local? With the changes in our revenue mix I've been thinking of one bigger unit to replace both ours next year, but will miss gas heating.I cant tell the difference at the wand between a HM 318 and HM 423, my 36 fuel burner "feels" it has more than both?
getting 575 installed in couple weeks as was underwhelmed by the 423, time will tell..

Moving from gas or to one unit?Mistake
What about me? I have to deal with people like @Matt WoodI have empathy for the manufacturers. They have a difficult clientele to please.. Too many Arrogant yet poorly trained broke Dick carpet cleaners

Keep in mind the blower and pump require horse power to turn them. If you use a motor that doesn't have enough horse power, you will turn the blower and pump slower, as well as running the motor at full capacity all the time which decreases the lifespan of the motor. A 25 hp should be fine, but you will have to find the formula and double check.most are 33's from what I have seen. I have an old one sitting outside my shop. 25 hp Kohler and a 33 blower. I am thinking off rebuilding it with a 45 blower that I have in the shop and putting it in an open small trailer as a back up or maybe a rental.

You want to run near capacity. Not at full capacity.My understanding air cooled motors should be run near capacity for cooling reasons??

8 pump outs?!?! He needs this one!!! No diaphragm to wear out, has a 316 SST impeller that cuts debris to prevent clogging. We just recently launched it, however we started field testing them on a few end users machines February 2020. I personally installed one on a customers early February 2020. I randomly followed up with the customer and he constantly said it was working amazing.8 pump outs later and has he flooded the state of Georgia yet?

Legend Brands | Automatic Waste Pump-Out System
Save time on jobs with this fast-flow automatic pump-out (APO) system. No need to take time to stop and drain your waste tank, and its impeller pump requires less maintenance with no diaphragm to get easily clogged. The float-activated system automatically pumps waste water into any suitable...www.legendbrandscleaning.com
I heard there was one that had issues, and we brought it back for inspection. We found out what happened, I just didn't realize it was his.Matt was the one field tester who wasnt impressed.

My APO has lasted for 14 years now of daily use!
It cost less than $300.
Mike started it. I wasn’t saying anything until melon opened his mouth.Oh, here we go
It is one that I designed for my 2 truckmounts several years ago. It uses a pond waterfall 110-volt submersible pump that uses an electromagnetic pump that automatically pumps out the recovery tank so there is no need to ever replace the pump. Over time the impeller gets replaced at a cost of $25. The pump sits inside the recovery tank. I use a small 12VDC to AC inverter to supply 110V for the pump. The TM battery powers the inverter. It uses a Pondmaster 1800 gallons per hour pump.What pumpout is this? Inquiring minds want to know.. Asking for a friend……
The truckmount tank fills up, and shuts down with the APO switch being turned on the whole job. I walked outside to see the APO pumping out 100gallons of water. That happened dozens of times. It would kick on during the job, but it wouldn't pump out the water when it was under full load. I found out that a pocket of air would get trapped in the impeller between the pump and the tank and wouldn't pump out the water under load. The person in charge of this test didn't believe my feedback resultsHe forgot to connect it to power.
Live and learn...or stumble along and entertain us all...like Matt.
