How long does it run before you need to refill the snow fluid?

I have 3 of these. You would not be able to run it constantly.... the motor would burn out. I have filled the tank and set it to go off every 5 min for 20 seconds and it lasted for two hours. I'm sure you could rig it to pump from a larger reservoir if you wanted too.

I am not sure of the maximum time as I only run it about 30 minutes at a time. I have not had to refill the water very often. Sorry I cannot answer your question.

4 or 5 minutes , its pretty quick if you start it with hot water in the reservoir. but the pump is not great, because it shoots out,goes all over . i use a little scoop instead of pump.

While it is full. Give it a squirt every time after you use the pump especially when you store the pump for the winter

The reservoir is a continuous fill so there should always be water available. If the cold water is completely drained and filled up again with room temperature it will take about 15 minutes for the gallon of water to be icy cold. We have these units in a lot of health clubs with no issues but if it is a very busy club you may want to consider ordering 2.

I think it depends on the number of ice packs you use. Typically you should get about 5 to 8 hrs.

About 3-5 minutes for initial heating. It will be done reheating by the time the fog runs out if you use it continuously on. I used it outside for Halloween and there was always fog out

It pretty well runs solid until it gets up to temp, then it turns on and off usually within plus or minus of 2 degrees. A lot of this depends on how cold and insulated your area is, but for me it is usually about every 5 to 6 minutes it will run about 1 to 3 minutes, then continue to repeat in that pattern.

Hi, I had ice on my windshield the other day and 4 sprays and it was clear (temp outside was probably in the teens). You have to wait approximately 20 secs. Between sprays. I've been very happy with the washer heater.

Mine runs for 8 hours. I fill the water all the way up to the line. How far are you filling it up?

You have to buy the snow juice. We used 3 or 4 times and then it did not work anymore. Don't know why.

it would depend on how much water you put in it. If you only partially filled the reservoir then it would not run for the full 8 hours.

Not very long - maybe 5-10 minutes. Sometimes it doesn't work at all - I have to empty out the water and refill it before it will work. These are NOT worth the money.

Rather than a break-in period, I suggest you prepare it prior to first need (snowfall) with proper oil and fuel and run it for 10-15 minutes engaging all forward and reverse gears as well as the augers to make sure everything works - which is a 'checkride' and break-in at the same time. This way you should be more confident that it will operate, you will be better prepared to operate it and you will have initially operated it under less stressful conditions. Plunging immediately into deep snow would pull up the RPM's on a brand new engine.

about an hour or 2 depends on how cold the item was when you put it in there

Should work but has to be plugged in and you need to buy the liquid to make the snow

I don't have snow where I live in California, but I did pump the rainwater off in the spring before removing the cover. The water probably would have evaporated if I waited a couple more weeks, but I was impatient. It is way too heavy to lift off with water on it. I used a $5 submersible pump and it took about 8 hours to pump all water off.
