HELP to move my Varistream
« on: January 09, 2006, 09:19:02 pm »
Hi everyone

Just into Second week of WFP, with my homemade trolley.
First thank to all for all your help as I have read nearly very post on here these past 2 months and have benefited greatly from your advice to others.

So here I am experiencing the first part of starting this “New Technology” which the incredible speed at which I am cleaning windows.
SO VERY SLOW

I must keep in mind IT WILL GET BETTER

One way it wll be better is if I redesign, remodel, improve my Trolley.  So.

Please could any one tell me if the varistream pump controller switch box is waterproof?
This evening I am rearranging my trolley.  I want (Before Bed Time) to lay the controller box on top of my pump box.

Up until now, it has been covered by my hose reel, so it didn’t get wet.

I am repositioning the hose reel and need to rearrange some things.  So will it be OK exposed to the rain.

Many thanks

Morph

Email williamsons in the morning.  Ask them.  You can't sort it all out in an evening.

They're helpful.  Or phone them.  Not a problem question.  Just a number of answers.

So I would still like it if some one could tell me.

I think you could describe the Varistream box as being water resistant rather than water proof. Mine is housed in an aluminium box on the trolley.
Now I don't know what other guys do, but I find that I don't have to make many adjustments to it. I have my usual setting and it's only occasionaly that I turn the flow up or down. We do however need to turn it off and on quite frequently.
I got round this by fitting a weather proof toggle switch in a convenient place.
It cuts off the power that goes to the Varistream. This saves me from having to open the box every time I need to turn it on or off. The box that it's housed in keeps it dry. Dai
