Our Task
Could we source a high quality, easy to use and reliable means of supplying hot water compact enough to include in our custom trailer builds?
Researching A Hot Water System For Catering Trailers
Over the second half of 2020, we set about researching available methods, suppliers and brands. This process involved quite a bit of head-scratching, measuring, drawing, designing and redesigning.
Finally, with a handful of quality products in the line up the testing phase was now the most important.
Testing A Hot Water Systems For Catering Trailers
Not only did the chosen system need to physically work with the sinks and below counter storage, it had to integrate with our electrics package. Equally important was its usability. Our chosen product need to be reliable, fast to produce hot water and simple to use.
In the end we narrowed it down to a combination of quality products, ensuring maximum efficiency and reliability.
