Towards the end of the job I turn off my heater to cool down the water going through the coils. I heard from someone it needs to be done to "help prevent damage" to the coils. Is he correct?
thanks

Bob Foster said:Judson Jones was in church one day and saw a heater being used in a baptism. After the service he went up and looked at it. He got to thinking that was a fine simple heater and he figured he might be able to use something like it it with his Judson TNT truckmount.
That is how Little Giant got into the carpet cleaning supply. Through out the years Jud, Dick and Les are responsible for why the thing is now so well suited and trouble free for our industry.
If anyone knows the answer it would be Judson, Les or Dick.

Brent,
I don't know of any damage that would occur by not cooling your heater down. Most of the cleaners using Little Giant heaters don't do it, but it can't hurt to do it.

i dont like the little giants myself, having owned one...its one of the few things with out all the electric crap i dont like...That and if you wanna do any serious T&G you gotta watch the pressure..
Having owned a steel coil and electric flow fired, i would anyday of the week...
Plus the "casing" for a little giant can get beat if not watched...mine, hell you could damn near roll it off a cliff and it would still look sharp

It is the whole themo box,just replaced one myself.If you do not have a supplier near,Cobb has them for $99.Shane T said:I've got a question for Les.

I have never found that to be a problem. My heater is over 4 years old.
