Re: Insulation Blower
Like one of these? http://cgi.ebay.com/Vanco-Insulation...3A1|240%3A1318
You can Google a search on Insulmaxx, which my son has a model 4000, or Krendl....the top name. Don't buy a Force...they are for Lowes customers. If you have the patience, you can keep looking on eBay and one will turn up...the insulation trade takes a while to build, as well as not being as high profit as you would initially believe.

Re: Insulation Blower
I have one of these with a newly rebuilt engine and new paddles. Used once after rebuild for an apartment complex and hasn't seen work since. Need a paint job as it has plenty of rust.

Re: Insulation Blower
So what are you asking? Only thing that keeps my from bidding on the one up north is the distance. I would like my son to have a back-up machine....especially a high capacity for attics....doubt you would do wall spray with it.

Re: Insulation BlowerVanco Insulating Machine
It has been in storage for 15 years. Depending on weather conditions it will blow (80) eighty 30- pound bags of cellulose in one hour. It will also blow fiberglass. It has a two-cylider Wisconsin Air -cooled engine and is in good running condition. I may be contacted via e-mail debbieolson56@hotmail.com Thank you |

Re: Insulation Blower
Vanco was a great machine. I used to own one and they work all day and all night. They quit building them around 1979 but a sound machine good for at least 40-50 bags an hour of 30lb fiberglass. I was looking for a used machine 2 years ago wish I knew about it then.
