Title: Cladding Cleaning
Post by: j.v. price ltd on April 09, 2014, 09:27:48 am
Hi All

we have a new marketing department at The Price Group and they have started to put together some great stuff.

Check out our first time lapse video, if you have a large job great way to capture the works and submit to the client so they can see in a short period of time what has taken place and the transformation.

Hope you enjoy

Yes fella the job in total including some restoration to an office elevation took just over a week, that was by far the worst side, pressure took the green off and then a layer of soot from buncefield baked on!!

What's hypo??

Just that one side, 2 days?

Charlie

Got a lot of respect for you and that is a cracking video but a Doff system to clean that is probably the slowest way of doing it unless there is something going on with the surface that is not obvious from your footage.

We have the system all built in to out access platforms, the hoses run up through the booms, systems mounted on the truck or in a van unit with the truck.

The cladding below the algae was subject to the buncefield fire and had backed on soot, nothing else budged it.

With 4 guys and 2 lorry a we cleaned just over 2400sqm in 16 hrs not bad in my book!

You can't pull that ace out of your hat this far in. You got us all thinking it was a standard Doff system @ 7 LPM?!!

So what flow were you working on ?

Is that split across two operators or single operator flow. Did you have four machines running or one man moving the picker and one cleaning?

Electric has always been a problem

Hope to have this sorted as we have just ordered a new transit Trend - which comes with a three pin 240 volt socket - we chose this van to install a new 1000 ltr Ionics Thermopure Zero - which I understand needs plugging in to fill.

It will also come in handy to plug other gadgets into
