Equipment Spec Sheet

The ET Drones Van Rig

A self-contained commercial wash unit built into our high-top van: dual-pump, RO/DI-filtered, RigLink-remote. The rig behind every job we quote.

8.0 GPM @ 3,500 PSI High-Pressure Output
11.5 GPM @ 300 PSI Soft Wash Output
200 gallons RO/DI Water Onboard
4-Stage RO/DI Filtration

Why this rig is different

Most exterior cleaning trucks in our region run a single-pump trailer with a 110-gallon tank and a Tucker T-DI inline filter. The ET Drones Van Rig is built for commercial workload: dual pumps sized for the surface, four-stage water filtration, dual-soap chemistry, and full remote control so we never leave the work to walk to the rig.

Customer-facing outcomes

Twice the soft-wash flow

11.5 GPM at 300 PSI on a Comet P40 diaphragm pump. Most contractors run 5–8 GPM. More flow means less dwell-time risk, faster rinse, and better chemistry distribution on tall facades.

3,500 PSI on tap when surfaces demand it

Industrial triplex plunger pump driven by Honda GX690. Concrete, hardscapes, and approved surfaces get full commercial torque. Twin pumps mean the right pressure for each material, automatically.

0 ppm spot-free RO/DI water output

Dual TDS meters confirm filtered output reads under 10 ppm before water touches glass or solar panels. Streak-free results without chemical residue, every time.

200 gallons of self-contained water

No homeowner hose hookup needed. We bring our own filtered water: tested, neutral, consistent. Works even where local water is hard, chlorinated, or unavailable.

Live mix-while-you-spray

ClearView Hydro-Mixer XL meters water, soap, and chemical on the fly. No batch tanks to over-mix and waste. Adjust ratio mid-job without stopping.

RigLink remote control

Start, stop, change pumps, toggle injector, switch soaps. All from the wand. Faster turnover, fewer mistakes.

Our Van Rig vs. Standard rig, side by side

What this means for your property

Solar panels stay safe. RO/DI water reads under 10 ppm out of the rig, the same standard manufacturers require for warranty-safe cleaning. No spot residue, no chemical etching.
Plants don't get burned. Two-soap selection lets us run plant-friendly surfactant mixes on landscaped areas and switch to standard chemistry on hardscapes mid-job.
No shutting down your tap. 200-gallon onboard supply means we don't need to use your spigot, your water bill, or your pressure. Our water, our chemistry, your clean surface.
Faster job completion. 11.5 GPM soft-wash flow combined with electric reels and remote control cuts setup and rinse time roughly in half versus standard equipment.
Surface-matched PSI. Twin-pump platform means we never push 3,500 PSI through a soft-wash zone. The right pressure for the right material, automatically.
Insurance-grade gear. Commercial-grade pumps, marine electrical, stainless mounts. Our equipment meets the standards our general liability policy requires.
