The tanks in the photos are quite large. I don’t use those tanks as they are too bloody expensive. I had one of the gutter vac companies build me a tank to my specs 1300L x 700W x 1300H. I can get through a full day cleaning gutters without having to empty my 1200lt waste tank. My custom 12v vac hose reel is 1300L x 700W x 1350H. My gutter vacuum skid is 1220L x 550W x 1100H. I have a 3.6m long tandem trailer which is 1.95m wide. My entire gutter vac system all fits on the back of my trailer taking up only 1300L x 1950W space. The rest of my trailer is enclosed measuring 2300L x 1950W x 1600H which holds ALL of my pressure washing and soft washing components which comprises of the following:
1 x 4000psi 6gpm Pressure Washer running a Honda iGX800 EFi
1 x Complete Softwash System “Booster in a Box” using a 1hp Gould Booster Pump 240v
1 x Proportioned
1x Remote control wizard (able to switch between soap & rinse on the fly)
1 x Honda 6kva Generator running a Honda iGX390 EFI to power the booster pump as well as charge 3 x 170Amp Deepcell Batteries
3 x 12v Titan Reels 2x12" and 1x18"
1 x 12v Hot Box for pressure washer
2 x 160w Solar Panels to trickle charge all 3 on-board batteries to power the 3 Titan Hose Reels plus my Vac Hose Reel
2 x Tanks 1x200lt Buffer Tank and 1x150lt for SH. I use the standard 25lt drums for surfacents etc plumbed directly to my Proportioned
1 x 44g Drum with APO
2 x SC housed in pockets on each side of a toolbox fitted on the drawbar measuring 1450L x 600W x 1100H. I use the toolbox to store excess Chem’s plus my wet weather gear, roof harness etc. I also house my coffee machine in there to.
I’ve got plenty of space in the enclosed section to carry more Chem’s and fuel when needed.
It’s a great setup and has served me well. I kept the height to 2.1m so I can gain access to underground carparks for flat work jobs when they pop up.
Well guys, that’s enough for now. I really enjoy reading your threads and have learnt a lot from you guys. Thanks!
