Depending on how dirty it is and if it is smooth or porous like concrete tile, you'll go through 100-150 gallons of 50/50 mix.
Hey guys I have a 4000 sqft tile roof Monday. How much solution would a average dirty roof that size require? Picked up 30 gallons of SH. Shooting it from the gutter
Just curius as to how you priced the job if you do not know the amount of chemicals needed for the job. Great job on landing the work, but you may want to keep some notes with the before and after pics for future refrence.
Excellent point randy.....how you been. Are you planning to come to Charleston for the National Convention.
You gotta get to Charleston.... Why can't you go

Direct wire. My pressure sensor went on my 5800.Thanks for the help guys. Took 120 gallons of mix at 40%. On another note my pump took a crap. PS-relay or fried pump who the heck knows. Is there a way to trouble shoot a FB pump PS and relay independently? It's not kicking on. First time pump oh no's. Didn't take long. Spare relays, PS and accumulator are being shipped. Bob at Pressure Tek is on his game. Fast fast fast fast.
Air pumps are the ticket for reliability and definitely the ticket for tile and places without gutters. Ask Chris at Apple who does TONS of tile roofs. They also allow you to seriously cut back on your materials usage because you can throttle an air pump back to just mist without any harm (on electric, you'll blow relays and pressure switches if you short cycle the pump).
That's for sure Kasey! We find that old clay tiles are the thirstiest ones. Plus, you always need to tell the customer that old red clay tiles will "BLEED" after a cleaning. This is because the oxidizer chemical we all use (SH), removes the top layer of oxidized clay. But after 2 to 3 good rains, all this oxidized clay is history, and a beautiful tile roof remains for years.Some Tiles drink it up. lots of different factors in how much chemical its going to take.. you can guess but you don't know till you start spraying
