Be Prepared With The ... WATER/HOPPER
Patent Pending
Your Cold Weather Mortar and Grout Mixing Solution
The Water Hopper is a portable automatic water system that heats and dispenses a consistent predetermined amount of water directly into the mixer. The Water Hopper will produce instant hot water with temperatures ranging from 98°F to 140°F. With the capability of being preset, the Water Hopper ensures that the preferred amount of water at the optimal temperature to meet code requirements is introduced for every batch. This allows the tender to safely control the water heating process, providing more time to perform other jobsite duties as well.
Easily mix grout onsite, achieving desired temperatures between 70°F and 120°F as stated in Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures (ACI 530/ASCE 5/TMS 402). The Water Hopper enables the mixing tender to charge the first batch of mortar in the morning in as little as 8 minutes from clocking in.

The Water Hopper system saves up to 85% on propane costs compared to the traditional torch and water barrel method of heating. LP Gas is only used when the demand for hot water is activated, this eliminates wasted energy. With increased safety requirements prohibiting open flames in many work areas, contractors utilizing the Water Hopper are benefiting due to the unique design with no exposed flame nor electrical elements in the water.
