Who Is Hotsy Equipment Company?

John and Betty Redmond started Hotsy Equipment Company in the summer of 1971 in North Glenn, Colorado. John worked full time for United Airlines and began selling pressure washers on the side. In 1972, he quit his job with United and moved to Illinois to become a distributor for Hotsy.

In 1989 John and Betty’s son Steve joined the family business. Upon John and Betty’s retirement in 2002, Steve stepped in, where he continues today in his role as General Manager of the company.

Customized Equipment and Designs
If you have a specific cleaning need in mind, we can design a system or device for you. Our most popular customized cleaning solution is a wash bay system suitable for cleaning heavy equipment. It includes a washing area with a hose system that delivers the high-pressure water from a remotely located power washer. A wash bay allows for multiple users, which speeds your cleaning, and is typically more efficient. For instance you can tap into your building's natural gas or electric supply.
