Sorry for delay , didnt realise i put same pic up 3 times ,sorted it now .

need to put a 125L in too !

175 will last you all day if you do upstairs only, i only use 100 - 150 L's a day

Davindo cleaner..The writing was £80 all in .

Matt... I was just gonna do the upstairs but did my own T + B and i reckon i might do it on everyone , another tank is a small price to pay for my laziness !

Anderclean...The trolley is just a lift out job on wheels , its pretty sturdy plastic .
i got it in a place in plymouth called compton cleaning supplies , £35.

Got the whole setup , 175L tank , all plumbing , filters , 100 amp battery ,hose and reel , bag of resin and 24 foot streamline pole for £850 all in .

It's better for you, better for them, and it does work

By the way like the van looks the bizz.

I had to get it done cos when i first started i was using my BMW and it was gettin ruined ! , plus i had customers sayin i was obviously charging too much !

Post by: P @ F on August 14, 2005, 08:55:42 pm: No RO as yet my tds is 100 so im gonna see how it goes with just di to start with, i did a few sets of manky windows yesterday and they came up superb , not even a single spot , and the glass didnt sheet either , so going on that i will see how long a bag of resin goes for and maybe get RO next year.

Rich P @ F

Oh did you ask cos you thought the price was high ?
Title: Re: PICS OF MY NEW INSTALL
Post by: P @ F on August 14, 2005, 09:28:56 pm: No RO in my system , as far as im aware they say if your tds is low you can get away with just the resin di

If my resin lasts 2 wks per fill ill be happy , £10 per wk on resin i can live with that , RO will come next year maybe

Post by: thewindowcleaner1 on August 15, 2005, 09:05:56 pm: P@F just been taking a closer look at your vehicle I'm impresed by your roof rack, am I correct in thinking that you just put the ladders on the rack without having to starp them down ??
