High rise tower sanitary service system
A system and method for servicing restrooms on the upper floors of a high rise building. The system is comprised of sections of vacuum hose that are interconnected by T-valves each T-valve is configured to provide a user with the ability to selectively shut off the flow of material in a vertical or horizontal direction or both. These vacuum hoses are then connected to a liquid cooled pump, which is connected to a vacuum tank. The system operates by selectively opening and closing the vertical and horizontal valves to focus vacuum force in areas to be cleaned and prevent vacuum in non-desired areas.
1. A system for servicing portable rest rooms on multistory buildings comprising:
a vacuum pump operatively connected to a vacuum tank,
a conduit, said conduit having a first end connected to said vacuum tank and a second end connected to one of a plurality of valve combinations;
each of said valve combinations comprising a horizontal valve configured to prevent the flow of material in a horizontal direction and a vertical valve configured to prevent flow of material in a generally vertical direction, said valve combination configured to allow a user to selectively open and close said horizontal valve and said vertical valve according to the necessities of said user; and
a horizontal conduit, said horizontal conduit configured to reach from a valve combination to a desired cleaning location.
2. The system of claim 1 further comprising a vertical conduit connected to said vertical valve of said valve combination.
3. The system of claim 1 wherein said valves are full flow valves.
4. The system of claim 1 wherein said pump is a liquid cooled vacuum pump.
5. The system of claim 2 wherein said vertical conduit is configured to be vertically secured in a generally up and down position along a vertical surface of a building.
6. The system of claim 5 wherein said valves are positioned in a location approximately three feet above a floor surface.
7. The system of claim 1 wherein said valve combinations are T-valves.
8. The system of claim 7 wherein said T-valve is positioned so that the horizontal valve is positioned closer to the vacuum tank than the vertical valve.
9. A system for servicing portable rest rooms on multistory buildings comprising:
a first conduit having a first end first end connected to a vacuum tank and a second end connected to one of a plurality of T-valve combinations;
each of said T-valve combinations comprising a horizontal valve configured to prevent the flow of material in a horizontal direction and a vertical valve configured to prevent flow of material in a generally vertical direction, said T-valve combinations oriented and positioned so that the vertical valves are positioned above said horizontal valves when said system is assembled;
at least one of said T-valve combinations having a vertical valve connected to a first end of a vertical conduit and at least one of said T-valve combinations having a piece of horizontal conduit connected to a horizontal valve; said horizontal conduit connected to a service wand, said service wand configured to be inserted within a portable restroom tank;
wherein when in use the vacuum tank is activated so as to create a vacuum, a valve combination positioned upon a desired vertical floor is positioned so that the vertical valve is closed and the horizontal valve is opened, all of the valve combinations located between the desired valve combination and the vacuum tank are positioned so that the vertical valve is opened and the horizontal valve is shut, said service wand is then inserted within a portable restroom tank and material from the tank is evacuated into said vacuum tank.
10. In a system for servicing portable rest rooms on multistory buildings having a vacuum pump operatively connected to a vacuum tank, a conduit having a first end connected to said vacuum tank and a second end connected to one of a plurality of valve combinations, each of said valve combinations comprising a horizontal valve configured to prevent the flow of material in a horizontal direction and a vertical valve configured to prevent flow of material in a generally vertical direction, said valve combination configured to allow a user to selectively open and close said horizontal valve and said vertical valve according to the necessities of said user and a horizontal conduit, configured to reach from said valve combination to a desired cleaning location, a method of servicing restrooms comprising:
engaging said vacuum pump;
closing said vertical valve;
opening said horizontal valve;
cleaning and servicing said desired location;
closing said horizontal valve; and
opening said vertical valve.
