hey Luke I remember those days of wheeling a pressure washer around the house, no fun.
6x12 double axle
one machine is a 8gpm 3000 psi
2nd machine is a 5.5 gpm 3500 psi
225 water tank
200 ft of hose on each reel
2 supply reels
one supply has 100 ft
second supply has 15o ft
I wash houses mostly and use the soap tips actually Guy’s shooter tip is what I use most all the time, most people consider that soft washing.
We do lots of cement and decks also. I will be setting up for roofs sometime in the future, we currently do no do them. This is also only cold water
For a 15.00 down streamer you can stay off ladders 90% of the time and not have to move around a bucket of chemical. I use 250 ft of hose everyday and that allows me to park on the street and hit almost any residential house while my solution is safely secured on my trailer. If I absolutely have to go further than that, I just put the down streamer and a five gallon plastic container (not an open bucket) at the end of my first 150ft length of hose. I have used that when doing some town homes. There is no way I would be able to move fast enough with an x jet. Save the x jet for applying solutions that require a higher concentration. Just my.02
Didn’t want to start a new topic. This one fits my needs. So here we go:
I have a 4GPM beltdrive, cold. I ds. And I’m using a standard gun and a 3’ (or so) wand that came with it.
When rinsing I can shoot up to some 25 feet from the ground (I didn’t exactly measure it, but that’s not the point). So this works great on two story buildings with attics.
My question is: if I wanted to extend the reach by another 10 feet or so WHILE in the middle of a job, can I attach a straight lance with quick connects, shoot up high, and then disconnect it and go back to my standard (shorter) wand? Or quickconnecting a lance to the wand is not a bright idea due to some play there at the connection?

I’m not thrilled with the LP shooter tip I got recently, it must have a defect as it has a little v-shaped spray coming off the main jet. I’ll have to take it back and get another one.
And since this thread is derailed, has anyone heard of some racket called housecall pro? Someone sold them my email or they got it somehow. Some cat there named Roland said I entered it in a chat bubble. Whatever that is.
