Love the videos keep them comin!
Great video
Great upgrade! And so thankful for your channel. I learn so mu h from your videos. Question, though, ive been watching you for quite awhile and you had the Predator PW, is that not a good machine ? How come you switched to this new one Bilthard?
@@nathan3647 hi, I ended up selling the predator shortly after I upgraded to a 10 gpm but I found out fast that it's to hard to downstream with the 10. It's like spraying SH out of a fire hose. I do love the 10gpm for driveways and rinsing but I was really missing my 4gpm. But anyways, I had no issues with my predator. I was about to buy another one but decided to build the electric start one instead. It's pretty much the same engine and pump just without the frame and the cost was cheaper. Thanks for watching and hope you do well with your business!
@MyPressureWashingBusiness Thank you so much for responding. Your video inspired me to go and buy the predator and I'm so glad I did. I LOVE IT it's so powerful. Although I need a few things such as that unloader valve you mention and also a buffer tank. My plan is definitely to start small but eventually work my way up. I only have a smaller suv at the moment amd have been trying to figure out ways to be able to have a mobile pressure washing business with a smaller footprint. I love that electric start and that pressure washer. I definitely copied your links when I'm ready to move up. I live up North and pressure washing is only going to be about 5 maybe 6months out of the year due to climate. Definitely subbed you when I seen your videos and so happy things appear to be going good for you and your family.
When you reduce the pressure like that, do you also lose gpm? About how much gpm do you get at that pressure?
does it have a auto flush ???
@@wellsmd1hi. no those are the 3 hose setups. They start at $500 and up. This one you have to run water through it at the end of your job.
Where did you get your quick connect adaptor to the blue hand nozzle. From what I understand they are UK BSP standard not USA NPT?
Thanks for the video!! have exact same unit and cant get it to work...I set the original regulator between 2500- 3000psi by checking gauge before putting the external on and then when i attach the external unloader and set regulator slightly lower by feel to the original I hardly can get 500 psi and can't get it to completely stop the dump flow when trigger pulled.. ive tried just randomly adjusting the regulators and sometimes can get it to work a little better randomly here and there but with no real definitive setting that works any tips any one? TIA
@@ApplyinPressure407 hi. Do you have the arrows on the external unloader valve facing away from the pressure washer? Do you have any leaks around your hoses/fittings? There's not a whole lot it could be. It may be possible you got a defective external unloader valve. Did you buy the one from the video? I only ask because a few guys on here found cheaper ones and had similar issues. Hope this helps.
@MyPressureWashingBusiness thanks for your reply and yes sir I got everything hooked up correctly though I do have a slight drip coming from the bottom allen key nut i put Teflon tape on it just can't get it all the way tight with no leaks would that lil bit cause an issue? Also i just took the little hose that came with the machine off of the chemical injector instead of just blocking and zip tieing like you did is that ok? And yes everything i bought from your links I was beginning to think the same thing that maybe I got defective unloader possibly
BRO YOUR CHANNEL IS DIAMOND SO INFORMATIVE! can you do dumpsterpads cleaning? make also vidoes about invoices/receipts before and after and pricings.
Gold!
Bro your channel is GOLD! Thank you!!!
Here is a great one. I have been slowly purchasing all the gear for softwashing. My first roof with the pump and batch mix and a quick front-of-house washdown. Will pay me more than the gear I have paid for. 3/4 & 1/2 Mixing valves, 1" manifold, check valves, connectors, hoses, filter screen, fittings, spray wand parts. I still need a water tank and tank for a surfactant, But I did buy a 30-gallon tank for batch loads. Yes, I look forward to this add-on service to my Handyman services. I will be buying a van to build out as the wash van. Parking is too hard when dragging a trailer around.
So if I'm down streaming is it still pulling chemicals
I had the same question but no amswer
@@ron_burgandy hi. The external unloader valve doesn't effect down streaming. Plug your downstream injector in after this external unloader valve. I downstream everyday with this external unloader valve. Hope this helps answer your question
New business!
Do you need any chemicals or so soap for surface, cleaners
@@ThatYT60 I pretreat with a 4% sodium hypochloride. (Chlorine)
I just installed mine yesterday. Today, we find out how it works. A full trailer wash, oxidize removal and Trex decking, railings, and concrete driveway cleaning.
It worked awesome. I think I am going to put a reducer to slow down the water it is dumping. The key point is to keep some water flowing to keep the pump cool.
@@1stFlyingeagle awesome man! Glad everything went well
where's a good place to get a pressure washer cart for a 4 gpm 13 or 16 horse power engine from? The cart that has wheels to roll it around. thanks, chuck
Can you put a pump on the buffer tank if you don’t want to do gravity fed? If so what size would you need?
Where can I find the water shout of for the garden hose
I loved this man. There’s a lot of useless shit on the internet, but your video was packed full of good information.
quick question if you dont mind me asking. what did you use for leads when first started?
@@riversidepressurewashing2024 yard signs work great for me. And still to this day are how I get most leads but you have to stay on top of them. Every couple weeks i go put them back up at the entrance of my busy neighborhoods. It's expensive first starting out because your signs always get taken but I keep putting them back.
Congratulations Lopez6701 is the winner for the contest. Thank you everyone who played. You can see the drawing at the end of the video labeled "set up downstream Injector for beginners".
My unloader is busted. Can I replace it with this one and gain it''s advantages at the same time, or do I need two?
New business
Damn dude these videos are amazing. I wish I had seen these about 3 weeks ago when I first started my journey, but still lots of great info since I am doing my upgrade to a 4gpm setup. I am using all of your links for stuff I don't have. ;)
This video saved me! My Simpson 2.4 went out and I am now looking at putting together an upgraded setup. Much appreciated!
New business! Lots of great tips and advice. Thanks!
Hi, bro its not working in my pressure wash, do you know why
@@SandeepRehal-eb1km sorry to hear that. what pressure washer do you have? Do you have a pressure gauge? Remember, you have to have the external unloader psi turned down lower than the factory unloader. Do you have the flow going in the correct direction, it needs to be facing away from the pressure washer.
New business
You just taught me that my unloaded that I already have can use a buffer tank with the flow recycle. Thank you
No more hard starts, trying to start the washer and fighting the unloader was a real pain. Even if I waste some water it's worth it.
You're supposed to pull the trigger while starting.
@@ItchyKneeSonyou don’t need to if you have an unloader
On that Amazon unloader l, if you look into the outlet before you put on the quick connect adapter, was there a small hole down inside the outlet on the sidewall. Was there any parts in the outlet orvwas it empty?
@@jasonthurston799 Valve is already installed but I'm not sure exactly what your question is about
This video is pure gold
Good stuff buddy! Your 100% right you can make tons of money with a basic setup
New business here I’m gonna do your truck build!
What type of unloader valve would i need for a 4200psi 4gpm?
Hi bro , i buy this same but its not working in my pressure washer
@@hrehal6828 did you hook it up in the correct direction for the water flow. Can you explain a little more about what the problem is and I'll try and help you
New business
Great informative video. How do you reduce the recoil when you pull on the gun
Just found out they make a flow sensitive unloader that eliminates the recoil you get when you pull on the trigger after bypass mode!

Is this safe to do on the AAA pump on a Simpson
@@dustinjohnson2116 yes I know multiple guys who use the external unloader valve on Simpson pressure washers
@@MyPressureWashingBusiness thx
@@MyPressureWashingBusiness so to set desired pressure you still use the unloader valve on the pump, correct?
@@dustinjohnson2116 that's correct. I Installed a pressure gauge before I put the external unloader valve on to see what my factory unloader was at, and then I installed the external unloader with the pressure gauge and turned that one just a little bit lower than the factory one.
@@MyPressureWashingBusiness ok. 3/8 quick connects?
I was told you should plug off the chemical injector on the pump. Is this true, and if so how is this done and with what part?
@@bryanbahling2877 yes you should plug off the factory chemical injector hose. Simply find a small bolt that fits snuggly in the clear tube and use a zip tie to tighten around it. That's what I did and it worked great.
If you need a chemical injector You will want to use a general pump downstream injector, they are the best. amzn.to/3KTpA6I And you need the quick connects amzn.to/4bd9dN1
@MyPressureWashingBusinesI just took the hose off and left ot off of the factory chemical injector port is that not a good idea? Thanks in advance
Can you do another video of how yours is rigged up as well as how your applies chemical?
@@harrysylvester2736 Hi. I actually have a few newer videos on the channel that explain things a little better. There's also a complete truck build video that shares a lot of info on my setup.

“NEW BUSINESS “. I messaged you on the external ball valve. I’m starting with a 2.5 dealt but still getting more material. But Good videos bro. Keep up the info videos.
@@D-boi93 Glad to help my friend!
New business
If your filling from the garden hose and stops with the float valve, wouldn’t it over fill due to it filing up with the external unloader valve? I’m not understanding something….
@@D-boi93 hi, I also had a hard time understanding how the float worked at first. But no it can't overflow. Once the tank is full the float valve will close and no more water will be coming in. Think of it as if the tank is now sealed completely off with only the water that is in it. If the pressure washer is still running, now it is just circulating the same water over and over until you pull the trigger on the gun and start spraying water, only then does the float valve reopen and replace the water you are using. Hope this helps.
@@MyPressureWashingBusiness so say I don’t use the pressure gun, an the tank is full.. well the water is still gonna fill because the float valve isn’t on that side..? Right.. if that makes sense..
@@D-boi93 The garden hose is no longer hooked up to your pressure washer once you install the external Unloader Valve. It is hooked up to the float valve on the buffer tank only, so there is no more extra water being introduced once the tank is full and the float valve closes. It only recirculates the 30 gallons you already have in the tank through your pressure washer
@@MyPressureWashingBusiness Got it! Thanks for the help! I’m eager to make this setup now!
@@D-boi93the pump is drawing from the tank, so it would just be re-circulating the same water.
