Anything that saves us time on the job saves you money — period. One of the main things is ‘access’ to the pressure tank and controls. Some are located in utility rooms full of stuff. If we have to crawl over, clear an aisle or move your stuff, that’s costing you money. Some pressure tanks are located in a home’s crawlspace. Many are full of rodent feces and bodies in various states of decay. Some have loose fiberglass and black-widows lying all around. Aside from being a health hazard to the service tech, it takes time to suit-up and dodge dead bodies, spiders and fiberglass. Well pits or houses with small doors, filthy conditions and no ladders are the biggest waste of time and money. A properly installed system with easy access is much less costly to service. We can do in minutes what has taken us hours to do on some jobs. We want to be efficient but it’s impossible when we have to fight certain conditions. Folks don’t see these places and don’t think of improving them but even a few minutes with a shop-vac can save you a lot of $$$. — David Nequette
