  • @northjerseykevin409
    @northjerseykevin409 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thanks for the video. I’m thinking the perfect setup would be a nice soft wash 12 volt with manifold, AR45 for those big roof jobs and an 8 gallon for downstream and rinsing.. I’m not sure about tank size. I’d get a flow valve so I could refill but there must be a sweet spot. I’m also torn on a skid or a trailer…. I’d like to get a skid because I already have a nice pickup with a 6 1/2’ bed and I know that would be convenient but I also realize a trailer or good size flatbed could hold it all. Tough decisions

    in the case of run off going down the gutters what do you use to collect the product so it doesnt burn up plants grass etc when it comes out the downpipes? as of rn ive been using heavy duty trash bags and tieing them up around the down pipes to catch the product, its a pain was wondering if any one has another idea.. my company i work for we work solo routes just tryna find a easier way so im not getting on and off the roof as much.

    They are pretty big. Any information on the best way to approach this. I know the pressure washer can damage the membrane if the PVC and i think the best way is to apply SH and hose off ? I think ? Haha
