Another bonus is you don't need the same volume as water so where water is in short supply it's brill

And you don't get pooling like you do with high lpm machimes

So when is steam not the right option ?

 

[Eviestevie]

On heavily weeded blocks because need that extra pressure for the joints

All tho I run a turbo and steam that's fun

Forgot to put pic up yesterday someone knocked the door, it's got nothing to do with saving water you need more water, cleaning dirty Conservatory roofs with just wfp is nigh on impossible.

Not following?roofs?

Is the sprayer what you use on roofs

 

[Poles Apart]

Yes saves a lot of work.

 

[Eviestevie]

It's a backpack/crop sprayer

Same as a window cleaning one

Do you just rinse with it?

 

[Eviestevie]

Surely there no difference then then using wfp for rinsing a roof

Yeah it's the same but came with attachments and hose. Last week I did a Conservatory it was very mouldy and I used the customers hose and a spray gun to rinse down, without that I would never have got the bits off, I have another to do tomorrow which is just as bad but there is no hose and tap available so I couldn't have done the job without this it's got the same pressure as a garden hose so it's adequate and runs for 40 mins continual on a single charge so good enough.

Yes there's a huge difference not enough water comes out of wfp I'll video the job tomorrow.

Does it have a bigger psi pimp then?

Also it must empty very quickly if the flow is same as a garden tap?

Don't know about the pump, as for emptying quickly so what I'll take plenty of water.

 

[Eviestevie]

Poles I'm not being funny but not grasping what the difference is between cleaning with that and a wfp

It's the same a streamflow 16l backpack just relabelled like all Chinese sprayers

Even gardiners

The psi on the is about 70psi max and surely that will not produce the same volume(lpm)as a garden tap?

Do you have a vid?

It's like you say probably just a backpack but it comes with a gun, I could have just ordered a backpack just saves messing about the build quality is much better than Kobold backpacks plus the tank screws off for easier filling.https://www.dropbox.com/home?preview=2016-05-23+13.30.22.mp4

Just tested a full tank and it lasted ages, I noticed last week on that minging job we didn't rinse all that long there were just a couple of panels with those black bits on that come out the seals. You don't put detergent in the tank on this it goes into a bottle attached to the gun so going to apply virasol with water onto the roof with this just to loosen the Cr@p then wfp it with Virasol again then rinse down.

I use a similar setup for applying my degreaser before I clean
