I have owned 3 of these machines. Each machine lasted approx. 1 year. I use my machine every single day for about 4 hours each day because we include coil cleanings as part of our PM service. Currently I am without a working coil jet and it has impacted my work day quite a bit. So, you may be wondering why my machine only lasts for a year. I'll explain.......The manufacture of the Coil Jet has designed a product that is amazing (when it is new). Coil Jet recommends that you use only their cleaner in the machine. I have tried this method and it works ok. The problem is that the suppliers in our area don't always have the cleaner in stock so I had to explore other options. Here is the #1 problem with the Coil Jet machine......Coil Jet says in their manual that the machine has to be drained of all the cleaner solution and flushed with clean water after every use. The chemical tank is quite large and holds a lot of concentrate. If you only put in a little bit of cleaner and happen to run out the tank will lose its prime. Not a big deal, just don't have time to keep messing around with the sprayer. So, you would think that they would make it a little easier to get the cleaner out of the chemical tank. They don't. The whole machine has to be tipped upside down for you to drain the chemical out. It doesn't just pour out of the container either, it makes a huge mess. The mess is a concentrated chemical that gets everywhere. This process takes so much time that you lose money on your job. The machine needs a way to drain the chemical tank easily so it can be flushed quickly.. The chemical stays in the chemical tank and eventually it stops working. No problem right? Send it back to manufacture to be repaired, don't waste your money. I have been told the machine is un fixable. Great product Impossible to maintain Customer service no so great Cost is pretty expensive considering they didn't design the sprayer so it can be easily repairable when it stops before its first birthday.
Hello Ben Thank you for your review Questions 1. How long in minutes 5 gallons water sprays a coil using regular yellow nozzle? 2. Pressure looks not bad, but is it ok to wash coils properly after using coil cleaners? 3. How long battery change running? Thank you.
I've owned my for 2.5 years - still going strong and works great (same battery) - only change I did was to pull off the old short hose and I installed a longer 25' hose
Great review.. it didn't get cheaper, I'm in France and they are selling it here for 1300 euros. Too much for my beginner pockets
Could you use it as a low power resume washer?

How much charge for a cleaning job like that ?
I'm getting ready to buy one myself to start cleaning ac units. It looks very useful easy to handle.
Thanks for the review. I just talked my boss into purchasing one for our company.
always clean a outdoor condenser from inside out. Your pushing debri into the fins. We use the needle 45 or remove the condenser fan top

What are the longer term results ? Like after using it for a few months ?
I've owned my for 2.5 years - still going strong and works great (same battery) - only change I did was to pull off the old short hose and I installed a longer 25' hose
How long the battery runs?
a long time - about 4 major cleanings
@@g2gequipment789Does it use hot water and how long could the water stay hot
Just put hot water in the unit and it stays hot the whole time you spray within the hour it’s not insulated so it will not stay hot
Not bad from what you've seen, any feedback after extended use?
