If I make one person a little more aware of working safely John, then I guess I accomplished my goal. Beyond that, I've exceeded it. I feel it's more about someone's Dad, husband , brother and so on not coming home from work that night than a little over exposure. -------------

Right Fuzz not to hard to do.. It's when you see post of 200ft runs with portables is what really amazes me.. I ran 3x3stage and never ran over 75ft.. And there was times when i ran 75ft and doing 5 slow dry strokes it still wasn't as dry as when i do 1 with my TM at 150ft..
By the time you lay out 200ft of sol/vac i could roll the porty nearer with 50ft and have 1 rm done already.. And OH YEAH my dry times would be soooo much faster than 200ft with no booster...
Try this test on your porty .. Lets see if you machine can pass this test.. Set your unit at the top of the stairs.. Run 50' of vac hose down the stairs and back up into the water tank (filled).. Now suck out the water.. Go ahead and let some air flow in.. It won't matter.. Some of the water starts to come up but it cant handle the volume...

But with one of Ed's vac boosters what would tests show? Agreed a porty by itself is rated for a 25' - if that number was greater they would be sold equipped with 50' as standard equipment I would guess. ------------- Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity? |

 But the other one is real out in the field results.. Now on the 5 dry strokes thats not all the time.. It happened a couple times with clear filters.. Certain fiber styles with thick padding..
