Ice blockage
A there any way other than jetting? A good tip on my k6200?
I couldn't find anything on this as I use my iPhone and the app is fairly limited. I ask, as our power company has conduits full of ice, I camerad them and told them to get a jetter company in. He's going tomorrow with me. I was just wondering what other guys are doing .

I have seen a gas powered pressure washer that heats the water up, it was hella loud but worked well.

This sounds a little crude but I've done it on RWL's that run underground but not below the frost line. I just dump in a couple of scoops of road salt, come back the next day and the blockage is usually gone. It's cheap,, if your not in a hurry try it

Blades are useless on an ice blockage!
You can skate on a pond all day and never wear the ice out.... Jetting it the best way to go and you don't need hot water either... What is the PSI and GP of your pressure washer? It may work....

I never had a ice call yet but I just put the Eel cutter on my AJ Coleman to order list anyways just to have it. I can always use it on other things too I guess. |
