    Default Tank washer?

    Is there a device on the market that could clean/rinse a tank? I have an old 3000 gallon distillery tank that's really hard on a bad back to climb into regularly. Any info appreciated.
    Remember to keep on ticking while the sap is dripping.
    2016- 50 buckets. Made 4 gallons.
    2022- 3750 taps + Smartrek! Made 1300 gallons.
    2023- 3750 taps after removing a pump house and connected two woods. Made 800 gallons.

    They sell a device called a spray ball for enclosed tanks.
    First introduced to making maple syrup in 1969
    Making syrup every year since 1979
    3 x 10 oil fired
    Revolution syrup and max flue pan
    Almost 1300 taps total with 900 on high vacuum
    Bought first Marcland drawoff in 1997, still going strong.

    I have one like this that I use in my enclosed head tank. I have it plumbed in to a water source to use it to rinse the tank out.
