Problem
A 2-inch PVC pipe almost 200 feet long in the fabrication shop of Ringling Brothers Circus in Palmetto, Fla., was full of sludge and dried paint.
Solution
Officials called Richard Baron of Baron’s Jet Tec in Sarasota. He used a Warthog WV 1/4-inch nozzle from StoneAge, operating at 4,000 psi and fed from 200 feet of 1/4-inch hose and 500 feet of 1/2-inch hose. Baron cleaned the first 25-foot section in one pass. The 60-foot section with a 45-degree elbow required two sweeps 25 feet apart.
Result
Baron cleaned the line in 68 minutes. 866/795-1586; www.sewernozzles.com.
