Title: please i still need advice
Post by: zeusjazmin on July 26, 2006, 09:07:29 pm
this is a second request for help
does anyone know if there is a portable wfp that would enable me to clean third story windows?there are roughly 4o of them.
i am in danger of loosing my best job if i do not find a solution.
i dont have a van and it is only for this job i would need it.
i am totally naive when it comes to wfp,even if someone could point me in the right direction of somewhere that would explain it all i would be grateful

  Zeus,

  You can fit a tank in your car, my mate in Stirling does this no prob. Easiest way,
  set up costs around £800 to spend.

Zeus,

For fear of sounding boring, a backpack would suit your needs perfectly.

I regularly use mine for three-storey buildings.

I think both Cleantech and Peter Fogwill at Aquatech are both selling well priced systems; but make sure they know you want to reach 2nd floor buildings.

Tank in the back of my car??  No thanks, bit on the dangerous side.

What about a trailer system??

  125 l no prob in car, 100 m microbore will do your flats only prob car will be open
  so trolley system better but lot of barrels of water.

Then it's the backpack, if there's vehicle access problems.

I think Cleantech and Peter Fogwill are selling WFP start up packages for around £500 or £600 pound.  They come with RO/DI and stuff.

Try Peter first, at Aquatech, since he does the Unger poles which will easily reach three story.

Peter was the original trolley. And or Get a backpack as well.
Convert and you wont fall off so you will keep taking the money. Think squeeks must be asleep  :)
