Does anyone know if you can hire the units anywhere?
Had a quick look on the tool hire sites but can't see them anywhere.


For starters, one of the largest (the largest?) is HSS - they do one:

What do the flushers actually do?
Can you cheat by using mains pressure water instead?
Presumably the pump needs to be taken out of circuit?
