I done shot my wad this year with 2 newer trucks. Time to start thinking about saving for winter. Not building another trailer.

Don't think you will get close with a 12 volt.

Mike,

I doubt you'll find a 12 volt pump that will shoot that high unless your on a ladder. Give us an idea of what you're working on and perhaps we as a group can brainstorm.

Will the air pump shoot that high?

gutterdog · Jul 6, 2013

I'm gonna bid the cherry picker in. ALL competition would too. I just want a way to put that extra Grand in MY pocket per day!

andy hinson · Jul 6, 2013

No Sir it won't . You might get 35' with small tip. As you know the wind is a killer.
It may shoot higher but not consistently

gutterdog · Jul 6, 2013

Plus I got a 50 foot ladder. To get to the higher up sections that can be walked. 40 wont get it.

I'm trying to not use a cherry picker, and put that money in my pocket, what I save

Are you cleaning a roof?

gutterdog · Jul 6, 2013

This isn't cleaning the whole building, I wish it was.

But it is not. and straight lines of cleaning needs to be done. The wind would fuk with that.

Getting the cherry picker.

It's a really big building!

Still good money.

Mike, put a quick disconnect on the end of your hose and attach a 10- 15 ft lance with a OO20 tip for shooting the chems. You may need to use a tall step ladder in a few areas especially if your dealing with windy conditions but it should reach 40-45 ft with the longer lance. Be sure to keep any and all surrounding landscaping wet down.

For a fee ($$$$$) I'll drive up and shoot it with my MONSTER pump and air compressor while sitting in a chair in front of the building. (remember the 71' I used to talk about). Air is the way to go, with BIG hoses. biggrin biggrin biggrin biggrin biggrin
