take the online courses for training. They shorten the learning curve immensely. Get a ticket and fly to new jersey in October for the weekend training. From Philly airport about 30 minutes or 2 hours from Baltimore(southwest) You will learn a lot from the training as well as networking with some experienced guys. I haven't seen anyone on the board from Atlanta. You are in a great market. Make some money with your pumps and then invest in one of AC's softwash rigs and become authorized. I lived near Atlanta in 1996-98 and you are in a great market if you have the right training. You should be able to easily have average sales of around $1,000 per job if you market yourself properly. 1st season is for learning/making mistakes and a little money in your pocket, 2nd year you make real good living, and 3 rd year you expand if you want and be a real business

Yes plant wash to. now is there ever a time that sh is better than ch or vice versa.

In my opinion,
Sh is easier and faster to work with. Ch isn't supposed to harm plants.
Personally I use sh, if you take precautions and pay attention the pros out weighs the cons
