 Why
to choose a
Tank
Sprayer rather than
Ready-to-Use
Chemicals
Probably
the most important reason is the impact
on your wallet. Based on common
usage rates, a person who always uses Ready-to-Use
Chemicals will spend 38 times more money
than the person that sprays using concentrates
and a tank sprayer.
More
savings can be realized by investing a quality
tank sprayer and following the manufacturer's
care instructions. Simply put, cleaning
after each use is the best way to prolong
the life of your sprayer.
Quality
features to look for in a tank sprayer:
- Tough Polyethylene tank.
- A reinforced hose that screws onto the
tank for easy cleaning.
- A two piece adjustable nozzle is best
for easy cleaning.
- Look for a nozzle that attaches to the
shut off AND the end of the wand. This
gives you more versatile options for spraying
in tight spots.
One
last tip: A tank size of 1, 2
or 3 gallon makes mixing easier. Most mixing
instructions call for so much concentrate
"per gallon." Using a 1.5 or 2.5 gallon
tank may force you to search for your calculator!
