California Drought, New Machine, NO PROBLEM. Lets wash some stuff!

truck tank.jpgJust got a Schutz 275gallon steel cage screw style butterfly valve tank for $75. came pre-pressure washed out and was used for ag fertilizer on grapes. I need to get fittings now to plumb this to my trailer. hmmmmm hopefully this drought wont last long.. 5.5gpm can put a dent in this real quick.. lol
 
Buying some fittings for the tank today, thank you CL Scott, your video's have taught this cave man plenty of things to get this tank plumbed up!
 
Hard to see, terrible picture.... lens on phone broke.. but!!!! THANK YOU RUSS JOHNSON!!!!!!!!! And the team including your wife I believe for getting the payments a time or two but as of maybe an hour ago, Hottemp Steam Cleaning is using a brand spanking new unit and surface cleaner with water tank all plumbed up all in a 4x6 trailer! Damn its nice, this beast heats up super quick!!! Way hotter than my Alkota thats for sure, I wonder just how hot though. I was a little unsure as I couldnt get the water to siphon? through the pump under a 175gallons of water in the tank, I bumped the starter on the unit and it gulped the air bubble through instantly and and was flowing water instantly as the colored stream of water i injected showed me no problems priming the pump. WOW, this feels like a fire hose compared to my old unit... I can really *uck up some kitchen grease and caked on gummy bear consistency fat and oil. Restaurants fear me now for I come to blast all that I had to previously scrape muhahahahaha.


That Whisper Wash Ground Force 24" is astronomically better that the Home Depot Briggs and Stratton 12" plastic surface cleaner I was using before, although this unit was not some crazy flying saucer like ive seen on videos before... but im sure amping up the gpm and incorrect nozzles would cause that.. This Whisperwash seems balanced just right where its down and not heavy to begin with at all....


Feels like a review.. I better use it in the field before I ramble on more.. haha

Thank you also to alot of random people I got advice on or used a post you made as my reference points. Yes the searching helped alot and I hope in the future one of my posts might have a 0.01% chance of helping the next guy who is wanting to learn...

Three Cheers For:

Pro-Power Wash and Ron Musgraves ++
Southside Equipment Inc. and Russ Johnson ++
Pressure Washing Institute and ALL MEMBERS ++

Manuel, I hope that machine makes you a ton of money!
 
Unfortunately, Arizona is the last state to get water from the Colorado. That is something that was negotiated when the CAP was put in. That is also why we have such an extensive reservoir system, in the Salt River basin. http://www.watershedmonitor.com/contentView.aspx?DT=0&KW=WW_LwrSaltRiver

This is where a large percentage of the Phoenix area water comes from, and where we stand. With Roosevelt at 39%, we are not in the best position, but we still have water for something like 5 or 6 years, if not another drop of rain falls.
