personally i think a tank in van for being able to carry a large
amount of water is best if you are looking to both comercial and
residential work
i personally work from an estate it covers my needs of
being able to clean just under 300 domestic customers a month and
i dont use more than 200ltrs a day,i use backpacks because i
couldnt stand microbore and i find overall im quicker.
but once kids have buggered off i will switch back to van and tank
but still will use packs
Im in an estate too! Do you have trad gear in there as well? Ive got all my trad gear in there but think im going to struggle to get backpack and water in there. My plan is to fill barrells from RO and only clean tops with wfp and do bottom trad. I know its hard to guess but how much water (25l barrells) would I need to get in the car a day if I average 10, 3 bed houses a day (top windows only)?
i use a passat estate i can fit 8 barrrels and backpack in boot
i carry only the basic of trad tools spare batteries and brushes
in rear passenger area.
i can easily clean 10 3 bed houses ups and downs with wfp
and only squeegee off on the odd problem window i also
carry a di vessel and pipes in car just incase you never know
especially if you have got a couple of first cleans on top of
your normal work.
i imagine if you carry 6 to 8 barrels it will cover your needs
for tops only and as you go on you will find you will be able
to cover more work with the water you carry as you get used to
the system
