That’s great to know thanks so much. I was wondering.
how do you wash out your sh side of the proportioner?
SH line is dropped into SH tank with the end as a pvc dipstick. Drop it into the water tank when you want to rinse it out.
@ 👍🏻
why did you switch from your the one you built?
th-cam.com/users/shortsSzEOZFsk_yc?feature=share . This video gives some of the answers to your question.
heat is useful for oil.
Yes that is for sure.
great video thanks so much
Glad it helped.
are you using a turbo nozzle to clean wood LOL
Lmao 🤣 No way
thank, looking forward to seeing the bearing replaced in the old one.
Have you tried Oil Eater? :)
I have not tried that one. Is it any good?
@@thebrothersbarn6094 Yes! Great price on Amazon, Walmart, AutoZone :)
I can tell yall from experience that a hot surface cleaner at the correct temp is untouchable, we never used hot water out of the wand as we strictly used it for blowing debris out of the path we intend to use the surface cleaner on. Also, we used an 8gpm washer with the built in diesel burner so we had no need for a back fill tank. Super dope set up.
That's awesome. We have changed put setup alot from when this video was made. A 8gmp hot box is really nice to have. Keep on washing brother!
Zep was slightly better but they were both very similar
Yes they are very similar.
12 minutes of my life gone!
Yep a hour of mine 😁
I took a 420 predator$320 and another 800 in parts including the pump add turn mine into a belt drive for 1200
That's great. How's is it holding up?
On the brass fiting, you can use solder in the end of it and drill a hole like a meter hole
@@mkgunter Might work.
I’m way overthinking this. If they are both open to 5 that would be a 50/50 mix so wouldn’t that be 50% SH?
If your SH is 12.5 sodium hypochlorite and you mix have and half that will get you about 6%.
do you have a link for the hoses you connect to the soap, sh, and water? thanks

@@thebrothersbarn6094 thank you
Do these small barbs choke the flow or is that standard practice? In my mind bigger is better but I don’t know what the standard is
If you go to big the pump will not be able to pull from all 3 lines. This has worked for us very well.
@@thebrothersbarn6094 thanks for the heads up

Great video. Thanks so much. You’re the man 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸

Hello I just found your page on TH-cam and I subscribed. I have a trailer that I bought and had plumbed for me last summer I've been in business since 2018 I had a trailer that I batched mixed prior and I used to pull my machines off it was a real pain in the butt . here I see you can build on your own. Amazon has all the parts you need. Watching your video is great and you show me how to do it thank you watching I can see it's a lot cheaper to build your own that way and plus I'd like to learn how to do it myself rather than buying one. I also just bought a 40 gallon tank extra for an ATV which I'm going to use as my mixing tank the water will go into that one rather than the other 30 gallon tank that he already had hooked up right now my trailer is down because I am replying my soft wash and my second pressure cleaner that I have. It's just been sitting there and I don't even use it and I'm worried that it might seize up I put detergents in it and started up once in awhile so I should be okay. 12-volt pump finally went I decided to go with a fat boy remco 7 gal per minute 100 PSI. I know that sucker will definitely pull from anything. I really want to do away with the system that this guy built for me. I don't like it I want to do the proportioner that everybody has and do it that way cuz I can measure how much I'm putting in and understand it because all I have is just regular knobs I'm going to show you a photo of what I got set up and how I'm working on it now like right now I'm down I'm dead in the water I can't even take a job on right now till I get this done it's taking me forever it's so hot outside and I'm pissing me off luckily I'm slow right now. I want to know what to order on Amazon to make your exact proportional valve cuz that's exactly like the one they sell at the store up the street they want almost $200 for. Thank you for your video and if you could get back with me I'd appreciate it with those parts that you're ordering before I ordered the wrong parts. I'm already got stuff in my car but I have a feeling it's going to be the wrong stuff. And then I have to return it and take longer to do this . If you know the parts that I need a names or numbers or whatever from Amazon please let me know thank you very much and get back with me as soon as you can and here's a picture 2:59 it won't let me take a picture they're just regular valves PVC nothing with annoying what mixture I'm putting in.
I'm not sure if any of those videos went through it's not letting me actually upload a whole video I don't know why but sorry about that I hope you understand

I'm out working on the job now so if I missed something please let me know. Keep me posted on how your build is going. Also yes a 7gmp is must better 😁
I have a 5/8 hose reel will this work
Nice. We been using 1/2 and it been working and lighter to move around lol.
Proportioner chart that works for this?
Yes there is one. I will get it out for you. Should have posted today or tomorrow.
@thebrothersbarn6094 were you able to find a chart for these valves? I would imagine the numbers are "parts" as in 1 part water to 1/2 part SH to 1/4 part soap. Would this be accurate?
You're a Real G, Thank you for the links and the instructional!
You're welcome. Glad it helped.
What size (gauge) extension cord are you using?
Not big enough. We need to get a bigger extension cord for sure.
Very informative thanks!
Thank you!
How do you know the strength of your mix with this? Thanks in advance
Do you need the dialer valve for the water? Isn't it always wide open?
You would think you shouldn't. We have tried without one and if you don't use one than your % will be way off. This is because there would be No restriction for the water, but a restriction for your soap and SH.
Hey I hope you can help me whit this I got a diaphragm pump 1025 psi the manifold that you build do you think can work.??
I will have to double check but I think these fittings are max at 300 psi.
What gpm/psi machine are you using? Great video
We started with a 5.5gpm than moved to a 7gpm.
Thanks so much for this. I am going to buy all of this and add it to the new rig I am building for 2024.
Glad to hear it helped. Good luck with your new build.
I’m building in 2024 also, looking to break into the industry in my area! Good luck boys
@@hurdleguy8014 Happy building and good luck.
We bought the exact Pentair Valves. The ones we purchased do not allow 100% flow when on setting 5. We tested them against a regular 1/2 ball valve. The valves restrict the flow. I believe it is a design flaw. When you don't get 100% flow on water the 12 volt pump will sputter and your working pressure is greatly diminished. Did you test your valves before you built your proportioner ?
We did not test before built. I will say it worked fine for until they got a Crack in them.
I actually just last week spoke with the a rep for Pentair and told him what my test found. He confirmed that is how they are designed since they are designed for regulating chlorine in the swimming pool industry. That they will always restrict the flow even at full setting 5. We are building our new ones with the more expensive GF 1/2 inch Valve. And yea I have read reviews on Amazon that they crack and leak easily. Thanks Jeff
Do you pull straight sh or dilute with water
The mixer will dilute depending on the % of SH we want. Each vavle is hooked up to one of - Water - SH - Soap None are diluted.
How much sh was used and what was the gun and tip used for pre wash wash
We used about 5 gallons on this fence.
can you link to this part also? ~~~~~ You will need to buy a ¼ female to a ½ male fitting to make this work~~~~~~
Great video. Where can I buy the parts from?
Thank you! Most of these parts can be bought from Amazon. I will try to put a list together in a video.
Thanks my brother
Damn fantastic video thanks for helping out
Glad I could help out.
Great contraption you concocted to show an easy solution
Thank you!
Well, you just saved me $400. Thanks.
Glad I could help.
Couldn’t you just use a regular inexpensive ball valve PVC on your water as well as your surfactant? And of course on the SH is a good valve. What’s your thoughts?
I don't think a ball valve will get you the rate ratios. When you are turning those on and off it's really hard to say if you are at the half point or not. I will say we tried using a ball valve on our water only one time and the mixer was pulling more water than SH due to less restriction.
@@thebrothersbarn6094 I understand. I know the SH destroys pretty much everything. What do you think of the less expensive valves? I would use them for the surfactant and the water and the more expensive valve on the SH. What’s your thoughts? Thanks
@@nicholashalvis5376 The flow rate would be off still. I will put a video together to help show my understanding on this.
Currently ordering the parts, If I wanted to not have a soap valve can i just use a three way "T" instead of the 4 way?
A 3 way T should work out fine. I have not tried that one before let me know how it works out.
It turned out good. Wish you would have told us what was the degreaser that you put down. I'm having a hard time actually finding a good one
Thanks for watching! We used gold assassin degreaser on this one.
Make your own. Purple power from walmart, Instant power liquid drain cleaner (has sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide in it). Dilute up to 10 to 1 with water and you will have a stronger degreaser than anything you can buy from supply stores. Plus about a quarter of the price
Can you please source and specify all of the fittings and plumbing? Thanks
Pretty much equal
Not a lot of difference.
How do you like the Hayward valves ?
They have been doing good. Let's see how they handled after winter time.
What was the purpose of this video
🤔
Will this Proportioner work with a 7gpm pump
Yes it will work. We started with the 5gpm and moved up to the 7gpm. We like the 7gpm over the 5gpm also.
@@thebrothersbarn6094 thank you so muchs buddy , I was kind of worried because I have a 7gpm pump but someone tell me that the 1/2 proportioner will not work with that pump
Thanks for the Vid! Was looking to build one!
You're welcome. Hope it helps you on your build.
This video saved me about $800 thank you!
