    Has anyone ever rebuilt their burner?

    Hi gang. I guess it's been a while since I last visited. Hope all is well for all you waterboys (and girls). I have a burner that's blowing a lot of flame from its top and making mountains of ash. I think it needs to be rebuilt. Any ideas? Thanx for your time.

    Frosty the Gutter Snipe

    I keep getting requests for gutter cleaning though the temp is in the 20's at night, and there's one to two feet of snow everywhere in the state. Are my potential customers bonkers, or is there a way that I can defrost the gutters (without electrocuting myself?) and remove the offending...

    PW hose

    How long do you want it? A long time, I'm washing a house. We are all familiar with the old joke, but on a more serious note; How long should a hi pressure hose last? I bought 3000 psi hose two years ago. I run some older 3000 psi pumps that still get about 2500 psi. Within one year...

    Looking for suggestions

    I am hoping to dam up portions of the restaurant floor. Any suggestions as to what would do the job best? Up here they sell sand in a tube (long sack) for traction weight for winter driving, any reason this would NOT be a good idea? Thanx for your help!

    Efflourescent on Brick

    Looking for opinions on this topic. I talked with a man who has been in the brick business 20 years. When I asked him what I should wash Eff with, he replied, "Scrub it with a bruch and leave it alone. If you add water to it you'll just bring back the eff 10 times worse than it currently...

    More problems than can shake a wand at

    Sorry for the cryptic manner in which this is presented. Replaced a one year old Giant unloader (orange) with a blue spring from E-spec. The Giant was causing the pump to chirp (belt driven), and it seemed it wasn't unloading much back into the tank. Put on the blue spring (forget the...
