[MENTION=12088]Atlas1[/MENTION] believe it or not you can get those pumps on ebayā¦ I use 3/4" hose but I sure do miss the 5/8"ā¦3/4" hose gets heavy after pulling it around on the roof all day. 3/4" hose is the standard for all 1" AODD pumps.
Thanks for the info! If you had it to do over, would you just stick with a 1/2" pump? Or is the extra weight of the 3/4 hose worth it?

Also, is it poly braid hose that youāre using, or something else?

I still have my first 1/2" pump I use it to transfer chemicals into my mix tank. The 1" gives you the option on how much you want to crank up the spraying power, I wouldnāt go backā¦ My spray hose is Kuritec from Pressure Washer Products.
I got mine on Ebay as well. These pumps can last forever especially considering they were built to work much harder than what we do to them.
That is very trueā¦Being Kynar pumps they say that you donāt even need to rinse them, we do daily though.
Good to know. Thank you for the info!

Mroberts are you using a ball valve or did you find a 3/4 trigger gun? I canāt seem to find anything but 1/2" trigger guns.

I use a ball valve. I had the same problemā¦Glad to helpā¦
Cool. Thank you for the info. How do you like using the ball valve as opposed to a trigger gun?

it takes some getting use to it, but once you figure it out you will love it. You can control the flow from the ball valve while on the roof
We use a 1/2 inch pvc ball valve and an 18inch pvc riser on our fatboy setup. Havenāt used guns in a few years.
