Hey all, just about to enter into the hot water side of pressure washing.
was curious as to what your thoughts are on hot box's vs a full hot water pressure washer.

Im not looking for anything big by any meens. around 4k psi 4gpm

i have been contemplating between a hot box or buying a full machine with pump exetra.

for me im "thinking" hot box would be bennifitial as its somthing i can cart along in my pickup when needed. as i do have a belt drive cold water machine.
only down side im seeing is that the majority of hot boxes also require a generator. so i would actually be using 3 pieces of equipment vs just 1 if i bought a complete machine.

Im currently just using a pickup and a long ramp so loading and unloading is a big thing for me.
I have recently equiped a winch to pull a machine up the ramp.

But anywho some insights and pro's and cons of the two setups would be helpful.
thanks
 
You could use one of these, but you would need a generator or a way to plug up at the site, or you could run the 12 volt off your truck battery, but the truck would need to be running while it is in use.

I have an older version of the burner that russ posted above and I have had it for 8 years now. Go 120v and get a small inverter generator to run it. Costco carries a champion 2000 watt inverter generator and that is honestly the best bang for your dollar to power the burner. Also keep in mind that burner separate is way lighter then a complete setup.

Here this is what my dually was setup like
