Chemical Hose

guest

Lori what is the difference between your hose and Pressure Tec's hose, his hose cost 136.00 for half inch by 100' long and your hose cost 38 cents per ft which is 38.00 that is a huge difference.

Guest

I hope I am not speaking out of turn here but the difference with what Lori is she offers use as RCIA members discounts. Same product's just better customer service and she takes care of us. I know she will do her best to keep the prices down for RCIA members. Items like hoses, pumps, and 12v pumps that she can save you money on is the same brand, she is just passing on the savings and not putting as much in her pocket as she could because she and her farther cares and try's to help use out as much as they can.

For that, thank you Lori, your the bomb, quote from my son!!!

I suppose iI should emailed lLori that question, sorry.

The Kuri Tek hose has been determined through much practice to be one of the very best hoses available to a roof cleaner. Look around at the talk about what 1/2" hose can do to your pump and why true PVC hose and larger orifices are better.

WHEW! Thank you guys! James, your son ROCKS!
Bill, thank you, too!

I am currently researching pricing on that hose . However, it will be the better grade of hose in that particular line for less money.

Thank you. Lori

Walk it's all good, I did not mean to come across bad or anything. I was just saying that they are good people and try to pass on savings to use as much as they can, sorry bro if it was taken wrong. Good luck everyone, smile

pressure tec hose is Kuri Tec Kuriiyame 600 psi@70 degree and 300 psi@ 122 degree half in hose times 100 feet for 136.00 and Lori's hose is 38.00 correct, is it the same hose Lori? thats 98.00 cheaper. what a deal.

guest

Hello how come you didnt whew me I'm the one that pointed out that your 100 foot hose is 98.00 cheaper than your competetor>

Guest

Last time i called pressure tec they did not carry kuritec in 5/8 or 1/2

guest

they have it I just called Friday october 9 ? and I talked to Bob. I am trying to figure out what equipment especially the pump to buy and I'm hearing everything. I believe Chris with apple uses the Air Flo so thats probably what I will go with unless someone knows of something even better than that

How much do you want to spend. Do you want to buy a pump and air compressor? I doubt you are anywhere close to the demand Chris will require of a pump. I 'm certainly not.It is a slow process getting in this business just getting everything together and trying to line up work. I drive by homes every day with ugly roofs. That does not mean they are willing to spend the bucks. Its time for a weather change which could curtail maxium demand of getting business. I maybe off base but I would go with an easy, lowest cost but proven pump to get you started and productive.

guest

Andy you certainly have a good point it sure is something to consider. actually your probably right however Im already in the cleaning business and Im thinking about buying the right equipment from the beginning?

guest

Andy I have no roof cleaning equipment tell me what to get.

Thank you. Thank you very much. The hose we have been selling is more flexible because the working pressure is lower.

Thanks for getting the details for me. Lori

Air pumps FTW !!!! I will never use anything else. There are plenty of comparisons on the forum ..read up. No Foam!! No Bypass!! No Back load and with a all-flo brand no stalls!! I have never rinsed my pump and I use it every day for the whole season now!! Just make sure you set it all up right or it will break as most things not done right do. Like those 7gpm delevans using 1/2" hose are going to blow up every time. We tried to warn people. If you take the time to do the research it will work out great!!

guest

what does FTW mean?

guest

The air lflow pumps sounds the best and I believe chris with apple as the rest of the professionals on the board use them as well. Lori recommend them too. I am stunned that Bob from pressure tec a pump specialist would sugest Delevan? he doesnt even carry air flows. I remember years ago all the night mares I had with the surflo pumps Im just into dealing with that again.

I agree with you, I just ordered a Fatboy and my hose from Lori. Sha gave me a great price. I should have most of my parts to start building my rig now. Pump is suppose to arrive Wednesday. I can't wait to get started.

Pressure tek's hose is an agricultural hose. 600 psi is overkill for roof cleaning.

It's also too heavy and too stiff.

The lighter weight 200 psi Kuritec hose Lori sells us is the way to go.

Thanks again Lori for selling us the best product at the best price!
