A Telephone Call To The Water Authority Confirmed A Lack Of Working Pressure To Enable The Jet Wash To Operate CorrectlyA Quick Visit To The Local “Machine Mart” And A Water Pump Was Purchased To Enable The Working Pressure Of The Water Supplied To The Jet Wash To Be Kept At A Constant LevelApparently This Is A Common Problem In The UK, So Any Purchasers Of Equipment Should Check Pressures Required Prior To InstallThe Equipment Was Purchased & Will Be Maintained By “Coxhoe Service & Supply” of Spennymoor, County Durham. A Company Of Which The John Wade Group Has Dealt With For Many YearsThey Along With Ehrle UK & Ehrle Germany Have Been Very Helpful In The Initial Concept Of The Project Through To The Design, Delivery & Installation Of EquipmentBoth Jet Wash & Vacuum Cleaners Have Been Fitted With Coin Mechanisms That Will Accept 50p, ?1.00 & ?2.00 Coins As Well As Ehrle Branded Tokens.
