Bought a booster pump for water pressure
by Freemind1 Thu May 11, 2017 8:38 am
A wayne booster pump, 110 volt.
Mounted it to a 2x6, used plumbers tape to secure it, and mounted a carry handle. Tomorrow I put it to work on the first job. This should fix all the lower pressure problems I have had in the past, but just adds more equipment to every job now. If it solves my flow issues, I don't mind so much.
I have to bring along my 24' extension ladder tomorrow, but luckily it's one of the very few jobs I ever need it for. 4 windows set way back behind a lower roof line. Can't get a decent angle with the WFP.

Do you use body harness when you go up that high ?
It sounds like a pretty dangerous work.
Also how often you break something ? Like light fixtures ?

My feet are planted firmly on the ground, other than the small bit of ladder work I HAVE to do. No harness, just the safety of good shoes and sound decisions.
My extension ladder is 24 foot. Anything taller, I pass as most people won't pay for a lift, which I would REQUIRE to do higher than that.
That's part of the reason I went WFP. I can currently do 3 stories, but can go to 6 with my pole if I buy more extensions.

Pump has been working beautifully. I don't know why I didn't add it before.
Well, I know why I didn't. Most of the "advice" you get from others, you have to take with a grain of salt. Didn't see actual video proof of how well a pump worked, until this year.
Pump sure makes a night and day difference with the performance of the rinse bar. They aren't expensive either. Got mine at Home Depot for 132 bucks, with free two day shipping.
