The satellite dish and rain gutter cleaning system is comprised of connecting 2 or more sections of PVC pipe 4′ to 5′ in length with attachments for a standard air compressor, shop vacuum, or leaf blower at one end and a ¼″ to ⅜″ plastic tube at the other end. Air is forced from an air compressor, shop vacuum, or leaf blower through the pipe out the plastic tip in a concentrated flow to remove snow, leaves, and dirt. Future versions of the system will be made of formed plastic.
DRAWINGSFIG. 1 shows the ends of the PVC pipes. The first end has ¼″ tube attached while the other end has ¼″ fitting to attach to a standard air compressor hose.
FIG. 2 shows both 5′ PVC pipes with standard male and female connectors.
1. The initial production version (1) of the satellite dish and rain gutter cleaning system will be comprised of 2 or more five foot PVC pipe poles connected with standard female and male connectors at the center joint(s).
2. At one end of the pipe will be a connector to one of the following: an air compressor, shop vacuum, or leaf blower.
3. At the other end of the pipe will be a outlet ¼-⅜ plastic tube approximately 1 foot long.
4. Version 2 will be made from formed plastic with a similar connecting system or a telescoping plastic tube depending on cost.
