Title: Water tank advice
Post by: VSP Home Care on February 23, 2011, 12:51:14 pm

Hi guys, whilst some customers are in during the day I'd rather have a backup source to avoid running out on the move.

Just wondering what people use.  I'd think a 100lt tank in the back should do it, I'd also like something guaranteed not to leak  ;D

Any advice?

Are you talking about pure water or water for traditional cleaning?

how many workers do you have?

i would think 2 25L BARRELS full of warm water would do 2 of  you easily!

Thanks guys, I've just found a site that has what I need I think, they do a 35 for £33.  Just handy to have I think.

Thanks for the advice.

Go to your local IMO (Carwash) and normally they have loads of excess 25ltr barrels you can get for free or for a couple of quid
