I have an old vac booster that I used to use on my Ninja, would there be any point attaching this to an Enforcer, bearing in mind the vac booster has 1.5 inch internal vacuum ducting and the Enforcer has 2 inch ?
Thanks

Hi pro fresh I have the enforcer mate do u use 2 inch hose mate I use 1.5 on mine still goes inside of the hole ?? Thanks paul
-
Hi Paul, I use the 2 inch and 1.5 inch hose. I have the pipe which connects the vac booster to the Enforcer but I cant really tell if it makes any difference.
-
Not sure I sold my vac booster mate they are all the same for all ashbys machines. How do u find the vacums power on the enforcer mate ? So we're the hose in let is attached to the machine do u put it directly in to the hole or does it go over the hole ?
-
Its ok, but I could do with more. The 2 inch hose slips over the inlet pipe.
-
Think il after order a 2 inch 1 then will be loosing drying power maybe? How do u find the machine mate my pump went and vacum motor in the space of 2 weeks about aon the ago so just replaced the full lot 2 motors 1 X pump

I sill think John Irish Martin has the best idea were hoping to get some pics of his new set up.

search ' boosted enforcer ' and it will save me explaining
Sean , haven't had the time since to start , hopefully soon .
Pro fresh , Ashbys are still using that booster with the enforcer , i presume they have fitted a 2' hose connector to the newer version , if so its just one connector , perhaps they'd sent u one or you could source one , also they have a newer electro motor in booster these days .
But i dont think using your 1.5 would matter a lot anyway .
-
Thanks John, when you say it wouldnt matter, do you mean its not worth using the booster as it is or changing the inlet wouldnt make much difference.

Hi Kevin
We have 3 enforcers and use our old 1.5 vac boosters occasionally when doing long runs. Defo notice more lift. I personally have not notice any difference between our old 1.5 booster and the new 2inch booster tbh

Thanks Luc, I shall give it a try again. Do you use 2inch hose all the way to the wand or do you have a whip hose?
-
Luc you not Tm anymore?

Shaun I'm still using the Tm now and then. Doing a lot more work in London and Parking is a nightmare. I brought a window cleaning van so also use the enforcers van mounted now and then.
Profresh if I'm running 100-125 ft off the enforcer I sometimes use 2inch all the way to a 2inch wand. I have bad arthritis in my hands from a bad motorcycle accident and find a 1.5 wand easier to use all day. I normally use a 4ft 1.5 whip hose.
-
Thanks Luc
I have tried buying short lengths of whip hose but no one seems to sell them, where did you buy yours from ?
-
Hi Luc how good would you gauge the enforcers performance at 125ft?
-
Profresh I have so much old hose laying around I just cut odd bits off. Ashbys used to always have odd bits lying around so would sometimes buy the odd bit from them.
Robin the suction down 100 to 125 is not bad. Obviously not the same as the Tm but I'm more then happy with it. I get great drying times still even using that much hose. I copied John martins idea of adding another vacuum port to the side off one enforcer and have run 2 enforcers together. Similar to the mytee escape. Cleaned a nightclub on 200ft hose and was more then surprised at the power and drying time. I cleaned this nightclub at night so the Tm was not best choice as its so loud.
I like the enforcer as you can run it off one plug if need be.
I have a 500litre window cleaning tank with a built in immersion heater that keeps my water all warm and toasty

Ha Ha , thats great , it does suck pretty good . Did have the immersion plugged in during the job also .
-
Yes it does suck pretty good. I was quite surprised at the drying times and it cleaned up just as good as the many times before with the Tm. I preheated the water in the large tank using the immersion for a few hours and then used a inline heAter to get a decent temp. Worked well tho
