Good news other helper Jose has a 19 year old brother and the mom just wants all her kids working so he's going out tomorrow on a ridalong.

Will fill out paperwork and make it official.

With my son giving me crap about working Saturday's because he work mon-Thur 40 hours a week working at Northrop, working on the F35.

We're gonna try and close that day and see how it goes.

It's been a lot slower on saturdays lately.

@Larry Cobb what solution hose is best???

At the Truckmount I would use a quality wire-braid hose since it has a higher temperature rating (300'F).

We use European wire-braid hose since they produce high quality.

Inside the job, we like the Parflex, since it is not subject to "black death" incidents.

I'll try your European hose. If I get it and I see the words continental or goodyear on them, I'm gonna ship it back

The hose coming off my truck is a stainless braided teflon hose, I forget what psi but I believe up to 500F. I have had my HX get away with the heat and it blew the fitting right off the parker hose. I'm now using Bristor's repair fittings rather than the compression fittings from local store. I think they hold better.
