[CLEANCARE WC]

i must really be missing some trick cos i started wfp with a diy trolley and yes it had varistream and old 60 psi surflo and pole taps etc....and if i could do a three bed semi with one 25ltr barrell then i was happy......twenty windows?........suppose it depends on the window size......you based in lilliput?

And when they find out you've been lying to them, I hope they sack you !!!

actually its not a lie because i work alone, and the ladder is supposed to be footed at all times, so therefore it would be against health and safety. I was actually told that by an ex health and safety officer who is a customer of mine.

am thinking of using back pak same as you at moment trad downs. use wagtail on pole for most ups but cant get some awkward windows or small windows with wagtail let us know how it goes.

LJ, I see a pattern repeating here, as per DIY purefreedom post. Perhaps you should give impact a call and ask if you can do the other 2 days of that course.

perhaps you should bite me
backpacks may have their uses but the best way to stop spotting etc is to rinse properly and if you are scrimping on water you will have problems

[L.J.Thorpe]

when you first start you will be using lots of water so you
will be lucky to get one house per fill,but as you get used to it
your water usage will come and you will do more for each
fill.

i can do two standard semis and at least three standard terraced houses

with 18 litres of water!!!!

no sorry have to correct myself there,i meant i 25ltr barrel
of water

you dont have to blast water at windows to clean and im
quick

i use a 15 ltr backpack

its not "BLASTING" water i use a 60psi surflo with a mk3 analogue varistream set at about 70percent with a gate valve to turn flow on/off using 100mtrs of microbore. Pressure and flow are different things

i wasnt particurlary aiming the comment at you,maybe you
might consider you may and im only saying may be using more
water than needed

standard terrace round here generally has 6 windows plus
i patio window and front door and i can definatley do 3 and
bit of these houses on maintenance cleans with one barrel of
water

i use a ws15 with a 70psi pump which chucks out 2.6ltr per min
by time gets tobrush it prob a little less im really quick and on
my 4 weekly cleans i rarely have to rinse unless there is bird
crap or something stubborn hanging on,as long as im using
000ppm i never have spotting issues

[L.J.Thorpe]

seriously are you saying that you DONT rinse as a matter of course!!!!?
really??

[mark dew]

When i use the trolley with 25lt barrel, i can do 2 semis side by side on maintenance cleans. These semis had 14 windows each.
On 1st cleans i would use 25lt and rinse off every window, but after awhile i got to know which windows needed more work and which came up good regardless.
I only rinse off the glass with really stubborn muck or debris on them.

on my 4 weekly maintenance cleans i rarely have to,my flow
is around 2lt per min with my superlight dt mono and i never
have a prob,unless its work on a major rd then i rinse.

6/8 weekly cleans i always rinse, lets face it the windows might
actually be really dirty over that length of time

[L.J.Thorpe]

i dont have any 4 week cleans round is too big lucky if i get done in 8
i always found with barrels that i was watching how much water was left
with 650 litres i dont often have that problem
