i have found you lose suction with the hose curled up like that, it will be better to put up 50 ft on the reel

This is true with a portable or smaller machine, but I don't think it's an issue for Damon's 870.

4toTD off a 5 blower makes up for sloppiness

I've got an 870. I've got suction to spare.

I remember Mike dogging you for squeezing that thing in your Chevy.

Agree I keep mine straight as possible but he's got a huge blower

I gunna have to see this to belive it, my thought is not weather your hose is coiled or straight but how much hose is out , dictates how much air flow you have im gunna order a lie detector and test this out ill let you know what I discover. I know you have less vacuum with a live reel but you're pulling vacuum on a whole reel of hose not 1 or 2 lenghts my understanding is butlers and vortex has live reels or at least offer um i don't think this lie detector for 35.00 will give a very accurate reading but should be ok for comparison we'll see

Is that new construction? wondering if there is a need just for LVT cleaning of sheet rock dust, using light water with HWE method. I did it for a customer and it came out real nice.

I also wonder if you go up 100 ft, does that change flow? I am looking forward to the Anemometer results.

Coiled vs. Figure 8
Straight vs. Random pile after losing control and being all tightened up working solo.
UP over high balcony vs. Ground

And of course it would be cool to see the difference between 1,2 and 3 sections.

I dont know the science of vacuum, but Im thinking the wind speed may be consistent but the lift would change.

DAMON, how could you?? We are also talking cheap ass builder carpet. I’m sure you were fine. Even if you weren’t, I don’t care. Sonny Boy probably didn’t care either

let us know.

the meter may not tell the true tale though.
It's only going to measure air in an empty hose.

I think the dynamics/fizzics and restriction changes when you add the dirty recovery solution.


..L.T.A.

Between 2 meters, vacuum guage and anemometer i will measure simultaneously both lift and flow in various scenarios this may not the true tale of whats going on inside the hose but will show differences in how hoses lay and effect on lift/air speed/volume in a side by side comparison. This is the best i can do without a laboratory and knowledge to use it . My filter tank is setup with 2 inlets so ill hookup 2 -125' lengths of hose 1 straight and 1 in various states of coiling 1 side vacuum guage other anemometer

Damon we have DR Horton built hoods going up around here like gang busters. Starting in low 300s.

Selling before they get finished.
