Jeff,
If your supply tank is taller than the machine you could just fill the tank prior to starting it. Gravity will force water to the pump if the level of the water in the tank is higher than the water inlet of the elevated machine.

Russ,
Warm Honey Gold and Brown Sugar are far more popular with my clients than Western Cedar and Cal Redwood. Also, I find that some prospects have an easier time selecting a color from a choice of four than from a dozen or more.

Mike,
Using a "roof rake" is an alternative to putting a broom on an extension handle. There are several different designs and retailers on the web.

Mike,
You won't regret investing the money to attend the convention. I always come away from these functions with more than I thought possible. The opportunity is there for you, and anyone else, to do the same.
In my opinion, you cannot afford to miss this convention.
Consider joining the PWNA and registering for the convention at the same time. Assuming you are already considering a cost of $545, investing an additional $25 to become a member ($375 to register plus $195 to join) adds up to a great value.

Good luck this season, Howard. We're looking forward to a busy winter, too.

Thanks for the info Ryan.

Ryan,
Looks great. Where do you anchor your safety lines?

One thing to consider is that it may be necessary to unroll the entire length of flat hose in order to allow water to flow through. I have no first hand experience, just a thought.

I want to thank everyone for responding. You have come up with many very interesting ideas.
There is no underground sprinkler system and I didn't notice wet or muddy areas near the expansion joint. I had not considered anti-freeze because of the pattern of the stain. After further questioning, the home owner remembers a contractor's van that was leaking radiator fluid being parked there for the better part of one day. If this were the cause, what sort of treatment would be appropriate?
At this point, because the concrete needs more attention than just cleaning, they have decided to pursue this with the electric company first. We'll see where that leads and take it from there.
Again, thanks for the help,
Brian

ron p,
That's exactly what I learned today. The electric company made some sort of repairs under that section of the driveway in the last year. Thanks, all, for the suggestions.

OTP, I'll give that a try.
Thanks,

Hello, Beth,
Here's another shot...

Any thoughts as to what might cause a stain like this?
Thanks,

Has anyone come across anything like this before? The deck floor is TimberTech brand composite decking. The rails are vinyl. The stains only appear on the floor and are heavier in shaded areas. I tested spots with EFC-38, HD-80, and Citrolic with no results. No pressure washer was used for the tests, however. I could certainly use some input on this one.
Thanks,
Brian

Thanks Everett, I figured that would be the case.

I will be cleaning and sealing a deck soon with a handrail that has tree sap coming out around some of the knotholes. If I remove the sap from the surface during the cleaning process, and then apply an oil based sealer, will the sap continue to work its way out of the wood? I have never dealt with this situation before. Maybe replacing the board would be the best solution. Any suggestions? Thank you

I am new to posting on these BB's so hopefully this is the proper forum for my question. If anyone can help I will greatly appreciate it. Is adjusting the unloader an appropriate method for achieving lower pressure, or is it wiser to change tip size to a larger orifice? Thank you for your input,

Sorry, Russ, I guess we were typing at the same time.
