Is this a new line? Price is right. I prefer my reels seperate like Butler, but thats a matter of choice. How much vacuum does it hold 2 inch?

Dave;

The electric drive is just for the vac reel.

The vac reel holds 200 ft. of 2" hose.

Mr. Lockhart can bring it with your TM.

Larry, saw this the other day on your site and thought very reasonable.

If this came in a 3 reel version, I would start saving my pennies. Something like this:

BTW, the Powermax and Odor Attack are working great.
Gonna order the 25lb Odor Attack. Have to call Ray and ask him about some other products that I can replace with yours.

Lots of my customers would like an electric hose reel . . .

but the investment has been too high.

What do you think of this one ? :

The link didn't work for me. Anyone who doesn't have an electric reel is working way to hard at the end of a job.

Other than motor on other side and different belts

Good price, if they would have only shown up a couple months ago I might have went this route.

We only have a 50' of 2.5" hose on the reel. Takes about 20-30 seconds to reel up All the rest is loose so it stays clean. I can't see dragging 200' of hose thru dirt and driveways and then taking it into customers home. You guys must do a lot of hose cleaning.

Hi Larry:

I know this is asking a lot-but if the dimensions could be changed to fit atopa Butler tank, I’d take 2 now, and probably more would in the future. Email ifpossible.<o:p></o:p>

Dale;

We have narrowed the footprint of the dual reel:

I don't know the dimensions you have available.

Center vac reel is 15" wide.

Also made with 12" center vac reel.

People actually do that?

I take them in sections of 50's w/out touching the ground, the way Rob shows it in his video on utube.

Hi Larry:

To fit atop of a Butler tank the barrel of the reel cannot have over 28" circumference.I know that you can't make a couple reels-but in my opinion Butler charges so much for their electric reel, that somone needs to make some. Because you can buy a standard Butler-throw away the reel and pay this price and still pay less then to order an electric reel from them. Also with an electric reel, thiers could be made longer (more capacity) because the operator could easily guide the hose partially behind the fresh water tank as it rolled in.
