New toy 1/2 All Flo

Have to say I was impressed with my 1/2 AllFlo
I rough plumbed it in with a 5.5hp compressor. I like the control, plus 200’ of hose. I have a roof next to try it out on but so far I’m sold.

I was getting 4 gallons a min. 200’ 5/8 @ 50psi

Interesting that I just bought the very same compressor with intention to buy an All Flo soon. I was concerned that 5,5 HP wouldn’t be enough to feed that pump, so Im glad that you report initial success. Please keep me posted.

I’ll post a video soon

How are you doing? I hope things are going well for you!

We’re running 18 scfm at 85 psi and get 50-60’ with 300’ of 1/2" kuri. Looking to get 5/8 when web get a breather.

Good to hear, think I’m at 10.3 cfm. I’m just happy I didn’t have to buy another compressor.

1.Can I mount this pump on the vertical, was thinking hoses facing down ???

  1. Whats the best QC option to the reel??? from the pump, Gator maybe? I just don’t see many people using these pumps that post setup pics.
    I have 2 Banjo 3 way valves for various options going on the trailer wall got that figured. I just need to keep the floor clear as possible

Only matters if you’re pumping slurry. Horizontal orientation of the diaphragms would be ok

Was wondering what spray tip you are getting such long distance with.

Thanks Brian! Today is my 61st birthday, and last month my urologist stuck a camera up my tallywhacker and proclaimed that there is no evidence of disease. On the 15th I get a CT scan that might indicate metastaces from the original tumor, but this is just a routine test. Bladder cancer is one that recurs frequently, but I have changed my diet to make my bladder a most inhospitable host site for recurrence.

So thanks for asking. On my 61st I am doing well, and busy as a one-legged man in a butt kicking contest…

That’s wonderful to hear! I’m happy for you. I hope you have a happy birthday with many more to follow.

I looked into the brocolli sprouts after watching the videos you posted about 6 months back but never did get around to ordering any. I really ought to. I’ve had a couple uncles and an aunt who have had cancer. Granted, my mom has 15 brothers and sisters so the chances are a little higher for a family member to have it but 3 is still kind of high.

Anyways, good luck with your ct. I’m sure it’ll turn out fine.

Short video on distance 5.5 hp seems to get it done. Pulsating a bit but no real problems I am just mumbling a bit thought the compressor was drowning me out. All in all working fine.

LOVE THAT VIDEO 3 16. THAT’LL DO! The compressor I bought required a new carburetor and fan for the little Honda engine, and I just received them last Friday. Will probably order my All Flo from Lori next week or the following week.

Business has slowed down enough for me to come up for air, so I think I’ll enjoy the slower pace for several weeks before I take on any new projects.

Also what I love about it is that I don’t have to pull all 200 foot off the reel shoots the same.
I had 25 foot of suction tube hooked up for the video. I currently have a banjo 3 way valve so I don’t have to pull a single hose back an forth from fresh water to SH.
Going to install another 3 way on the line for transfers.
One thing I was told, make sure the air going into the pump is dry.
Absolutely love it, just need to mount it somewhere.
