i didnt know it was part yours untill i had it all rigged up and he decided to say you wanted it lol    but when i first took it i thought it was his and he didnt say otherwise. i would of mentioned it to you before fitting it if id known  on a serious note tho, have you ever tried gardiner fans? not any other once, gardiner once id be happy to let you borrow my clx 18 on for few jobs if you wanted to try them they require higher flow but they really are ace

Marks got them and i do like them when the rates right up. No good for us with 2 poles off one pump tho. they come out worse than pencils lol. I just find them a little messy...maybe ill give em another go some day

There are two of us working plus we use a high flow rate as we work faster that way and are more confident in the results. It does use more water though.

If I install a 650l tank what would the police be clued up on me being overloaded if they pulled me over? What's the punishment if they do know I'm breaking the law?

Its like everything else you could do it for years and never get caught or you could get caught tomorrow, but what you
need to remember is if you are involved in an accident you wont be insured and even if the accident isn't your fault
you could still get the blame because you are overloaded.
Punishment, anything from a fine to a prison sentence.

Try hot to I dont have a slow rate mind! i have to have it on 4 to get the boiler fired up. I just really dont know how you guys use so much water.

higher flow = quicker rince iv helped mark with a few houses hear and there and his flow is painfull takes me ages to clean the windows properly in comparison to my flow setting and when i moaned to mark lol he said yours is even slower. but i use gardiner fan jets mite make it different, i also understand that you may be on a meter and when im eventually on one my attitude will change im sure. 

get a set of gardiner fan jets and turn your flow up a bit more probley number 6 on the varistream id say on one real that is you watch how many more houses you will do honestly mate you will do more an hour just have to push the pole a bit quicker to match the flow

Lack of confidence=higher flow=quicker rinse.
Confidence=lower flow and very little time spent wasted on rinsing.
There's a good video that pops up on here every so often of a guy cleaning windows very quickly, it shows how little the amount  of rinsing you actually need to do this job and how quick you can become when you have the confidence.
Hold your brush off the glass and watch how the water hits it, you will see that a large amount of water never touches the
glass even with a low flow.
Don't get me wrong I'm not saying there wont be times when you will need to use more water very dirty first cleans is one
example but like I keep saying there's very little dirt on a four weekly maintenance clean.

The video your talking about proves my point Sean.

He is running his flow rate at the highest he possibly can. 70psi pump flat out.

That's the main reason he can work so quick.

You don't want to drive round being overloaded.

Worse case scenario is you have an accident and the police take your vehicle and put it on a weigh bridge. Your up the creek without a paddle if that happens. Major fine and insurance won't pay out.

Your best bet is to put a bigger tank in and then go to a weigh bridge. Put a line on your tank to the maximum you can fill it legally. Then if your working on your own you can put a bit more in.

I might be really dense but if you went to get it weighed and had a full tank and I was overweight would you just keep emptying the tank until you were legal by repeated weighing?

Either that or let air out of the tyres.

Either that or let air out of the tyres.

Also eat the contents of your lunch box. Then go to the toilet after and get back on the weigh bridge.

I am not on a water meter and between me and my son we use about 4 or 5  bags of resin per year.
Water for me is cheap.
I have just gone from a 350 to a 650ltr tank
I've just bought a 110amp Leisure battery and I work without a controller
I have a 5ltr pm pump working on full flow,  I get hardly any complaints EVER
I am working so efficiently and fast I can't believe it.
Maybe I've hit the sweet spot I've been looking for.

I know one thing,  I am always learning from some lads here on ciu and from my own experience on how to make a successful business

That's the thing, the higher the flow the faster you work.

No doubt you can achieve the same results using much less flow, but you will be earning far more money and getting finished your work far quicker with a good flow rate.

It's taken me 4 years to realise this.
