so these are power washer soaping nozzles for 7gpm?

Mike, do you ever have any problems with leaks with either the bottom brass fitting, or the where the ball valve and bushing connect? I never had a problem until the other day, and now I can't get it to stop leaking. It's not wear and tear, as I just bought these fittings.

Hi Mark of Waterworks in Portland Or.,

I just thought of this idea about how you can carry a 250 gallon tank in a very small custom roof cleaning only trailer, while you still carry all your pressure washing and exterior maintenence inside your van.

I just saw the neatest little trailer the was only 4'x 6' and had dual axles and 4 wheel trailer brakes. It was custom made for a water tank for agriculture use but was converted for use as a pressure washing mini-rig by someone here in my city.

Something like that would be a smart add on for a van like yours and if your van could handle towing 2000 pounds it would work great for roof cleaning yet keep chemical fumes and rust out of your van and could be easy to ride with in residential tight spots.

I will try to share pics of this when I have time to stop by the store and take them.

Also something to note: I was at Sam's Club the other day and saw a really nice 7" Full Color LCD monitor and color camera backup system for van's for ONLY $99.00

I do not know if blind spots are an issue for you but one of my rigs is a 1 ton E350 and it has NO windows and is a bear to back up safely so I got this so we don't run over any mailboxes ever again.

Yes the fatboy is a " On demand " pump. When you spray she will run when you stop and the pressure is reached she shuts off.

Yes, you need 00 degree and 15 degree orifices, 0050,1550, & 0060,1560

The nozzle you tried is too small.  The size of your nozzle is crucial. 

The FATBOY needs LARGE nozzles, #50 & #60's

Click on the link above and order 0050,1550,0060,1560 nozzles.

You'd be screwed, just like all of us were when we first started. LOL!

Years of trial and error. Lots of money wasted on stuff that didn't perform worth squat.

Try the 0070 nozzle too.

My season is just ending!
95% of all snowbirds, which make up 1/4 of my local population of homeowners are gone as of yesterday!
Now come the long drawn out summer, where most Floridians make and spend less money!
Ouch for me!!!
Of course, now my lawn and landscape business picks up, as things begin to grow again!
So, it "ALMOST" balances out?
FDifference is, instead of a roof for $350.00 in 2 hours, I mow 10 lawns for $30.00 in 4 hours for $300.00
Or do 20 landscape  [actually just weeding ] jobs for $25 each and make $250.00
I WANT MY ROOF WORK BACK IN FULL SWING!!!!

HOLY SCHNIKEESE!!!! 48 FEET! Are you serious? DANG! 

How about the 0050 nozzle, how did it do for you?

Congratulations Charlie! 

There is no roof you can not handle or reach with this new monster FATBOY! 

IT'S THE DADDY!

after testing it I found myself riding around looking at roofs and saying " I can reach that "
