Title: High reach pump up sprayer
Post by: seamus campbell on November 08, 2011, 08:42:41 pm
Has anyone ever adapted a pump up sprayer to spray chemical on to gutter on 2 storey houses. Was thinking of cutting the lance in two attaching the 2 pieces to a longer plastic tubing so that i could then attach the nozzle to one end of my pole and the trigger to the other. but would it be able pump it up that distance. any feedback or info appreciated.

You have just chosen  the normal way of doing it,i`ve used a few different pump up sprayers and none had a problem spraying at a couple of stories high.

Use a 1 litre sprayer, take off the spray head, jubilee 6" of hose onto the sprayer and fit which ever female you need to connect to your wfp.

Great little sprayer, where the handle fits into your pocket or into a leather squeegee holder.

Exactly what I've done a couple of months back, sprays up no problem.
