just a hello

[dwsracing 14]

Hey everyone, new here just doing some past thread reading. I have been in the window cleaning for 20 plus years and have done power washing also. I just have a cold water honda unit that does a ok job. With the little reading that i've done there is different ways people attack a house. Not quite understanding the different methods. Is there a good thread I missed ??

What about that new tip that is out, (no ladder) forgot name but that seems like a great tool to add to my arsinal. Any thoughts ??

Thanks DW

Welcome To The Madness

Just got that nozzle in today and will try it tomorrow

[dwsracing 14]

Great, I have a small pw job tommorow myself. Hope weather does hit 60. Will look for a report on the tip. If I can stay on the ground more with that tip, the safer I'll feel. Working alone most of the time now, love anything that works and saves me climbing.

Not for sure what tip you are talking of... but if you mean the x-jet yea they get the job done, I like them.

[FullBlast 14]

Just do alot of reading here and that will answer alot of the questions for you!!

Welcome,

I have not tried the ladder saver. I make my own tip for $13.00. I'll get you a pic later tomorow when I get back to shop. I can reach three stories with a 5.2gpm and 3000psi.

Dane,

I would like a pic of your tip as well, can you send me a pic to

daniel@mrpowerwash.us

Thanks,

Sorry i still forgot the tip to get a pic.

So what you do is, screw the air hose piece (pic below) to a nipple and you got yourself a hi-reaching chem tip. Make sure the diameter is small so you get more distance. Anyway thats it. Dane

[dwsracing 14]

Looks simple and cheap. If you do get time for a pic. that would be cool. Looks like others are interested as myself. DW

[4000psi 16]

I will, I have been pretty busy. I'll try to remeber.

[dwsracing 14]

busy is a great thing, here in MI. were waiting for snow and cold temps.

DW

[4000psi 16]

here you go. It works great. just like all the others.

[dwsracing 14]

Great, will try one asap. Thanks for the pics. I will update soon. DW

[dwsracing 14]

DW

[dwsracing 14]

That worked good on a 2 story house, Thanks DW

[4000psi 16]

I wonder if a smaller diameter it would shoot further.? What gpm do you use?

Edited April 15, 2009 by 4000psi

[814jeffw 71]

Smaller diameter will shoot further, but you also lose your draw rate from your injector,..not necessarily a bad thing,...but something to be aware so you can maybe adjust your mix.
