Title: Getting tfr above 4th storey
Post by: dudek on October 21, 2010, 06:30:21 pm
Hello all,

I have an ionics pole to do the job and on the goose neck you have the extra spray attachment, is there any way you can use this to connect another feed tube to it with some sort of pressurised container which will enable you to spray tfr to those up high.

Cheers

I think it was Ian Lancaster who said  'Isopropyl alcohol is another solvent cleaner you can add to wfp water that doesn’t leave a residue cause it evaporates'. Maybe thats an easier way to do it. I never have so I don't know but Ian knows what he's talking about.

Thanks Tom,

The only worry I have is the heater.

You are correct. But be careful using it as it is highly flammable.

Just mix tfr in your water and spray from brush

Swop to clean pole and brush wash with pure water from other tank

We did whole exterior facia of large building this way , worked a treat

Oh and yes had large triple glass line along top and down each side

Hadn't been cleaned for years and WOW was the client happy

Thats a good idea gordon i will give that a try if all else fails but as i have the top sprayer as part of my ionics pole i'd really like to utilise it.

Anyone else got or heard of a pressure container that will connect the a tube between container and pole sprayer?

Cheers

i use a pure freedom trolley and add tfr to water in spare containers works a treat if you can get some containers might work well
