The initial heat is from the heater to the reel, so I use anti torsion hose for this section. 

Apart from that, I use standard microbore

you'll not get the flow on a mini bore hose to ignite the burner mate,you can buy a flow switch to suit which would sort it but its just easier to change the hose to 8mm

thats 8mm internal diameter on the reel,with normal hose going from pump to heater to reel?
just making sure i buy the correct parts to start with!

This is not right Kev. I run 6mm micro with no problems at all.

Simply not true. I’ve had my fogwash heater for years and always used microbore. 

I have my controller on around 60 when using the heater, never had a problem

Just pull off the hot hose and click on the cold hose.

I got it from Peter many years back @spruce. I’m a bit on the o.c.d side so tend to look after things.

Hi @Eviestevie how are you? I don’t leave my back door wide open (Oo er missus), I pull the aluminium chimney up and close the door until it rest against it. This way the door is only open about 8-9 inches. It’s never blown out once

Hi Green

How long does the LPG gas bottle last? How much do you reckon it costs too run?

Thanks

How long it lasts depends on how much work you're doing of course.  

On my old system I kept track and got around 300 cleans from a 13kg bottle.

No, it takes two big batteries in the heater. I think their called ‘D’ batteries
