Best practise for rinsing conny roofs?
« on: January 27, 2013, 11:40:03 pm »
Since going wfp in August I've done quite a few conny roofs but a problem I'm having is no matter how much I rinse even after angling the brush towards me so the jets are more efficient, I still have bits of crap all over the panels. Sometimes I think it's due to when scrubbing it seems quite tricky working the brush at the top of the panel with the over hang from the top of the roof. But also it seems due to the angle of the panels. I have tried increasing the flow but and using the brush to get rid of the debris but at times it seems like I'm doing this forever.  ???

Hi Fin!  

 You can spend a considerable amount of time trying to rinse the last of the particles off a conservatory roof, especially if it is a low pitched one. So, what I have resorted to is this. After the last rinse has removed most of the debris, tackle the remainder with a large squeegee on a pole. This final procedure, in my experience, significantly reduces the overall time taken for the clean.  

Hope this provides a solution.

try and use customers outside tap as pressure will be a lot higher than using your pure water.if its a glass roof then finish with your pure out of tank.

occasionally i do the same and use a squeegee on a pole with an angle adaptor to get the last bits off.


best wishes
