Default Hot Water Pressure Washers

Wondering if anyone has a Hot Water Pressure Washer diesel or kerosene fired. Brand? Cost? Have to look for 115V. Completed the garage before the Camaro came so it's not wired (nor can be) for 220.

If you won't be using huge amounts of hot water, you might try what I did. My water heater is in my garage (Florida), so I plumbed in a hose bib right after the water heater so I can hook up a hose there and have hot water. Works great for me.

I have a Hotsy 1000 PSI 190 degree pressure washer. It is 110V and only needs 4 gal per minute from a garden hose. Have not used it in years since it broke down. Was good while it lasted.

Thanks Frank, I'll check into a Hotsy. Ive heard good things.

RJ, I like your suggestion but the wife might scream a little if I run a hose from the basement every weekend.

Had a bud back home who used a Karcher (steam type) with which he seemed pretty content. He used them for the clean up of trannys, eh?

Steam is much different the high pressure hot water.

Makes me think, I should send that thing out for repair!
