Wouldn't that cause water to go up under the shingles when pulling it back up? Like with siding you clean top to bottom.
dagg3r
I think both way it would get water under.. thats a fair amount of pressure
hevosenleuka
Better not have too many cracked tiles
AstronglywordedEmail
I have concerns about using the hose to lower and pull it.

i never knew people washed their roof tiles. over here we'd just replace them if they were damaged and leave it at that.
amareis
Careful! This can move the tiles around and actually make your roof less waterproof.
TheCarolingian
Why do they bother to clean the roof - aesthetics or is there a structural reason?
RaymondChoppard
If you don't clean it, moss roots attack tiles and make them fragile and porous. It's better not to use high pressure cleaning however.

Yeah I dont know how it's getting so many upvotes either....
I appreciated it man, sauce is sauce. Op didn’t deliver I’m all for it. Plus I like this show
CrossBetween
Ah, we have a connoisseur of ”how they do it” in our midst. Not surprising, really.
Yes, they show you step by step, how they do it. That's why I like it. Step. By. Step.
This screams for a song reference, but I’m not gonna do it now.
TecatePlease
Great way to clean the roof and uncover any leaks. That said, if it starts raining at 300 psi, I think we have bigger problems!
WoozleFish
I laughed at the crack about 300psi rain. Then I wondered about real rain. Quick google: 0.011psi, quick math: 0.87psi. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ballpark!
IfYouDontChewBigRedThenFYou
1 atm is about 14.7 psi so I’m assuming that’s how much extra pressure the rain introduces? not much so I wonder if that’d dmg roof
I power washed my garage roof before I painted it, it leaked like a sieve. My partner keeps her artwork in the garage. It didn't end well.
mwoodman
"Some people really like water colors" - probably not something you should say within striking distance.
snickklefrittz
Probably closer to 3000 psi tbh
blopblup
Well, if the tube section is 0.5in^2 that you'd equal 1500 pounds of thrust powering this (now) rocket into the sky.
JHawke
o_O that would cause some VERY extreme damage on that mans hands when (not if) the hose breaks... Not to mention extremely doubtful.
CharliePapaBravo
Those hoses hold 3000psi, they are braided steel. I think they can handle the 10 - 15 pounds of that head.
I work with hoses that can stand up to 4500 psi daily. I promise you they will break.
Industrial pressure washers don't fuck around. Even the cheap electric home use models can push up to 2500
deepthinkerIthink
No safety harness?

Exactly, if the hose pops, physics takes over.

Fuck I'm a roofer and it took me all day to wash with a normal petrol washer, this looks great
Hornethappy
This thing doesn't look like it's all that fast. It's likely to take you all day, too.
WhatzitTooya
Looks a lot more convenient than climbing all over the roof by yourself, at least for the steep ones.
Albedamned
Next time use a bigger diesel washer
copingcabana
You could use this every shingle day.
That's what happens when you use gas to clean. Try water next time. It's not flammable which is a bonus.
Hahaha good one mate
I hope you know I meant a petrol engine water pressure haha
VodkaReindeer
I wonder which one would actually be better in terms of cleaning power.
Laaub
Well, gasoline is a pretty potent solvent. Not sure how the different density and how it wets surfaces would affect the cleaning power
KirbyUOR
The gas would do really good if you're smoking a cig while you clean. Nothing left behind
Tbh I was talking about a petrol motor water pressure washer 4500 psi. Get its off like nothing just a small surface area so takes a while
Ketheres
Depends on what you are cleaning. If water is bad at cleaning something, gasoline tends to do pretty well and vice versa
When cleaning the roof like in OP.
Well considering that rain doesn't wash it away, I'd say water wouldn't work well.
Sidewinder1018
I always used gas to clean the dirt & sticky filter oil out of air filters on my dirtbike. Works great other than being covered in gas.
IMadeThisAccountForButts
For air filters petrol is probably the best because of no need to buy anything fancy and it gets the job done
quillfreminenti
I understand that it may be designed for it, but I feel uneasy about them using the hose as a guiding rope.
TakeTheStairs
2 words: German Engineering
bekkayya
I'm pretty sure its NOT designed for that. Ive seen similar couplings on air hoses and you definitely wouldn't want to put a load on them
atleast use a piece of string attached to a handle and rope to relieve the stress...tons of "cool" job gifs on imgur are gonna lead to
people hurting themselfs :(
air hose vs pressure washer.... do you think they are using the same parts?
I think they are using the same type of locking mechanism on the hose (pull back to unlock a ball bearing) which is not for holding weight
even if it is the same *type* of mechanism, i think the Germans who designed this might have taken that into consideration
poisonwell
What is it with you and Germans?
You CAN tow a car by running straps through your windows, but you probably ought to use the trailer hitch, ya know?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbhdkK4ESyw at 2:25 you get a good view of the clip. doesnt look the same as an air hose.
and since its not an air application, it would make total sense that it not be air parts being used.
