Running two lines
Permalink  
 


I have a Wilden air pump that i would like to see if there is a way you can run two lines off it the one pump or is that pushing it to much.  Could go so much faster on some siding jobs with two guys syraying with only one rig.

Also interested in seeing if you can run some type of slitter on my truck mounted pressure washer for going large concrete jobs.  Once again I only have one rig and would like to run two lines of my pressure washer.  Its a large truck mounter hot water unit.

Welcome any ideas.  I am guessing I am dreaming of being able to do this but thought some of you premium members would tell another premium member the skinny on it.

Thanks,

David

You should not run two guns off a hot water machine, its to hard on it! Most guys will get a 8gl a min washer then split it for a 4gl. It is really hard on the unit, JMHO.

Why not use the wilden to apply solution and the power washer to rinse behind. That equals two guys spraying at once.

Envirospec makes dual pressure washers. http://www.envirospec.com/ecatalog/PressureWashers.htm

 I don't see how it can be hard on a machine if it runs one gun at 8GPM or 2 guns @ 4GPM.  JMHO

I would look into it a little more Eric. I don't know for sure either. But if I was to take what every dealer says to me as Gospel truth........Well you know.
