Hey Doug, this is Kevin with TKO Powerwashing and Services I made a order earlier today and forgot to order that check valve, I’ll be calling you in the morning to get that from y’all. Basically just giving you a shout out and appreciate the info you provided
Just taking the time to Thank you 🙏🏾 knowledge is power! You are one of many that I learn from, but you are the first I ever thanked. I’ve learned so many pointers just watching your assembling ball valves, and so on. I’m starting my own Pressure Washing business in Miami, Florida area. Jesus Is Lord Pressure Washing Services WILL be buying pressure washing accessories from you. You have sown pressure washing knowledge in me, the least I could do is sow back into your company by purchasing, pressure washer accessories. I’m at the bottom now, but I can do all things in Christ that strengthen me. Thanks again!
Congratulations on 5k. I know when people tune in they’ll be glad they did. Looks like a real TV set you have. The lights are bright and makes for a clear video. Have a great time with your family over the long weekend.
Great point about parts and supply's being on back order, Doug. I've been waiting for a couple fittings for weeks! These are some nice product selections. Would love to see my SuperTips with them, next time. :)
Hey Doug. I recently bought an x jet rated for my 3.5 gpm machine. When I upgrade to a 5.5 gpm Pw, what nozzles will I have to upgrade? JRod and x jet? My m5 twist is rated for 3/7 gpms. Thanks Doug. Have a blessed weekend.
Hi Doug, This is Nwabisa from South Africa. Do you arrange flight or shipping to my country as we have little to no options of equipment I have been exposed to on your videos?
New sub here, love your videos! I'm just getting started and have a question. When it comes to house washing, and since I'm starting from scratch, what would be a better option a software system, J rod, or x jet? Maybe its that I don't know what I'm talking about, but a brief explanation would be awesome
I would suggest starting off downstreaming using a JRod nozzle set up. You can always use a pump up sprayer if you need a stronger mix in certain areas.
Mr. Doug Rucker, Is it a good idea to install a stainless steel coupler on a surface cleaner handle then a brass one? Or it doesn't matter because only water goes through it.
Great question, I have never found it to matter on a SC....they usually come with the Brass ones and I have used them for quite a ling time till they go bad. So I'd say it doesn't really matter much.
Probably 6-8% w regular injector. I’ve heard some guy say they get a stronger mix with a super suds sucker, But in my experience with it I’ve never noticed that.
Doug, does the downstream injector connect between where ur hose goes in and the pump ? I've got a hot water unit on the front and cold on rear of trailer, trying to figure out how and if I can downstream
@@PressureCleaningSch so it hooks into pump where pressure washing hose goes and of course the pressure washer hose goes into the quick connect but make sure arrows are pointing towards gun when installed
@@PressureCleaningSch thanks, trying to understand all the info im taking in the past few days.. considering starting something up here in Canada, but I only have around 4k USD to play with starting up.
Why in the world would you put the plug first in line ? So if the pressure washer is running and someone unplugged the quick connect the full volume of water will spray them in the face? If the female is the first couple and someone disconnected a hose only the residual pressure in the hose comes out.
@@PressureCleaningSch so if no hose was connected and you fire up the pump water would spray every where. I have a 60 gallon air compressor at home and would not want to unhook the hose and experience 60 gallon of 125 psi air coming out and try to reattach the hose under pressure. It just doesn't make sense to have a wife open connection on the supply side.
@@bobcat138 ahh I see what your saying. Good point. But we never disconnect w pressure in the line. Bleed it out first. We also have a shut off and release pressure in the spray hose.
@@bobcat138 been doing this way all my life never an issue till now. But I will certainly check on any OSHA rules related to this. I certainly don’t want the wrath of OSHA on me. Thanks for the heads up

You’ll need the 5gpm nozzles. 0040 Soap high
0015 rinse high
2540 soap low
2515 rinse low
@@PressureCleaningSch perfect
@@PressureCleaningSch Would need a new x jet?

Mr. Doug Rucker,
Is it a good idea to install a stainless steel coupler on a surface cleaner handle then a brass one? Or it doesn't matter because only water goes through it.
Great question, I have never found it to matter on a SC....they usually come with the Brass ones and I have used them for quite a ling time till they go bad. So I'd say it doesn't really matter much.
Do you have a percentage chart of how much SH % you add to a surface?
couldn't i mix my xjet solution lighter?
Sure can
How do you feel about using a plug and coupler on the hose reel?
I have a plug on my all my swivels and reels. Makes it easy to remove hose if you need. I try to use quick connect Fittings any place I can
@@PressureCleaningSch Thank You so much for all the info!
Can the 3gpm jrod on your site work for a 2.3gpm machine?
It can, but your not going to get the flow and distance like a 3 or 4 gpm machine.
@@PressureCleaningSch OH okay. Good deal! Thanks for the response. I love your videos man! I'm learning a lot!👍🏻👍🏻💯
Doug I have a question what’s the strongest ratio can one use for a downstream system?
Probably 6-8% w regular injector. I’ve heard some guy say they get a stronger mix with a super suds sucker, But in my experience with it I’ve never noticed that.
Perfect thanks Doug greatly appreciate the feed back
Doug, does the downstream injector connect between where ur hose goes in and the pump ? I've got a hot water unit on the front and cold on rear of trailer, trying to figure out how and if I can downstream
It can go anywhere after the pump. Make sure the arrows on the injector are pointing towards your gun no back towards the machine.
@@PressureCleaningSch so it hooks into pump where pressure washing hose goes and of course the pressure washer hose goes into the quick connect but make sure arrows are pointing towards gun when installed
Correct
@@PressureCleaningSch I'd like to video with u and show u the set up , if you had time to show me what's what
@@jamesjones4009 yes I can do that via face time, duo or Marco Polo....text me at 2818833630 and we can set up a time
Am i missing something? You list a soft washer but no pressure washer for a pressure washing business ?? or does that unit do both?
Assume a pressure washing business already has a pressure washer, these are tools that could help.
@@PressureCleaningSch thanks, trying to understand all the info im taking in the past few days.. considering starting something up here in Canada, but I only have around 4k USD to play with starting up.

Never had that issue. Why would you disconnect a hose w it running?
@@PressureCleaningSch so if no hose was connected and you fire up the pump water would spray every where.

@@bobcat138 ahh I see what your saying. Good point. But we never disconnect w pressure in the line. Bleed it out first. We also have a shut off and release pressure in the spray hose.
@@PressureCleaningSch I think OSHA may have some rules about this. You never know what a new untrained employee might do

Hey doug i was wanted to buy a new 4000 psi 8gpm pressure washer any brand recommendations or any specific one you would choose
This one here. 3500 psi is what I use. www.dougruckerstore.com/products/8-gpm-skid-pressure-washer/
@@PressureCleaningSch how do you recommend getting started
I am sorry for bothering you doug but i have many questions about pressure washing
I looked on your website i could not find one on there i was wounding if you could give me a price on a 3500 8.0 gpm pressure washer
