Lee is that on your property?

My families property.. My uncle bought a Tyson Chicken plant that was right in town, because so many people complained that it smelled... So I am renting out one of the warehouses until something is done with the place ..It even has its own gate and truck access.. ...Its pretty cool, maybe 65 acres? 20 acre pond and in the front where that dirt is, we made a jeep offroad course and the local custom truck shop had a jeep week where 200 jeeps came in and offroaded.. Then in the main buildings the swat team and local pd come a practice raids

hey lee how does that rigid air compressor work for ya. im assuming you have it hooked up to an air diaphragm pump. how is the flow... what psi and gpm do you get at the end of the hose.

Lee Kendall · Junior Member

that compressor has been awesome, its got a honda engine so it runs great.. Yeah it runs a 3/8" all-flow pump.. the flow can go up to 8gpm , but I have small nozzled on it from bob- I think I run the 3gpm nozzles on it, then on the 4 nozzle holder ill have one 0 degree nozzle that might be a 5gpm nozzle to get the distance.. Its nice because you can choke them way down if you want or spray half trigger and the pump doesn't cycle like the electric pumps. Its also nice because you dont have to flush them out every time, and they have a 5 year warranty.. After the fatboy I was hesitant to switch over, but you really get alot more control and use a ton less mix, and not as much runoff

and the psi out of the regulator is at 85 psi I think and it does 9gpm max.. but they make a bigger pump as well if you want more flow.. I like less...

what is the name of the pump you are using and do you find you get a lot of reach "in height" and "distance" from it .......so your telling me its way better then a fatboy?

Nice set up Lee!

I used to use the all flo 3/8 pump and that was the best pump i have ever used. The only problem i had was the actuall compressor getting eaten up by the SH. I actually still have my all flo and it still works great after 4 yrs. 9gpm at 60 psi, I used to set the compressor at 90psi and i could go from 50 ft stream to a 2 ft fan spray with no problem.

The pump is the same as mentioned below, its th 3/8 inch all flow.. As far as the compressor getting eaten by the sh,I bought a 20$ grill cover from homedepot, and the pressure washer and the compressor get covered at then end of the day, seems to work! The fatboy was great, and im sure its better now with the accumulator.. But when you get to doing a few roofs a day it will surpass, and it lasts alot longer.
