Title: Can a PureF. pump handle 13 floors?
Post by: Ola Normann on November 09, 2010, 06:56:42 pm

Hi guys!

Just wondering, Im going to take on job that has 13 floors, and there are guys that will abseil..
But I though that perhaps since I got 100m of hose, that I can just take it from the car? Is that possible? :)

Have yoiu thought of taking the trolley and containers up there to the
13th? You woudn't need a pump for the lower ones, just syphon from the containers.

YOU CAN'T ABSEIL WITH A POLE

approx 130' should be a doddle for a 100psi pump. Abseiling with a pole is a bit mad though,..

Thanks guys for answers.

But if you have a pole like say 30-40 cm long with a handle and a brush.
Does not that work? :)

I have a trolly, just have to use that then :)

A friend of mine lost a huge contract in London(Nat West) using that method because the firms health and safety officer said it conrtavened every health and safety code that existed. A cradle would have been ok
