Awsome we’ve been looking a the tucker booster pump
Good stuff! I have that Wayne pump as well but have yet to use it. Have you noticed any issues with the pump inlet hose (not sure what that blue hose is in video...light or heavy duty) collapsing from the pump suction? I've also heard "non- drinking water safe" hoses may degrade and break down eventually clogging filters. The user instructions w/ the Wayne pump recommend using a HD garden hose(on inlet side only) as not to possibly collapse inner hose liner, but nothing about drinking water safe??? Dunno myself, thought I'd throw it out there. Super helpful video for me right now as I'm familiarizing myself w/ my XeroJR/pump set up!!! Do ya think dialing down the (quick connect shut off) on the carbon filter inlet would allow for adjusting pressure if it was too crazy high? Thanks for putting this together Steve! I look forward to your content always & a most sincere congratulations for the birth of your Son, you're a solid American👍
Love it 👍
If I am not mistaken that pump is cast iron. It will rust and leak into your filters. I would recommend the wayne PLS1000 1HP pump. It will not rust and ruin your filters. Correct me if I am wrong. Its been a while since I looked at that style of pump.
That is a Good video and a good idea SteveO you cut the costing on the new System because of this that was my biggest problem with water flow and also add it the generator in case not having access to any power point Thank Buddy ....!!!!
Show us your new truck Steveo😁
Best way is too increase your brushes pencil jets flow and reduce the spray is to drill out your jets or rinse bar.. floods the glass
Hey stevo im new to your channel, btw your tips have helped me deliver faster and with great quality thank you, I've been cleaning windows for about 1 year now and im starting to get clients and im wondering how you got started, that is if you have your own company? I don't know if you already have a video on this if you i'd love to see it!
I do own my window cleaning company, I do have quite a few videos on biz tips
Nice video Steve. If you have low water pressure will the pump help? Or will it just struggle?
It will help
It's so nice pushing a ton of water. Speeds things up a lot plus on a hot day the splash feels nice on the body....😁
You should add a tank in that van for pure water! I took my Reach IT Flow Blue and keep it in the shop w booster pump. Make my water at home to keep it consistent and run into tank in the back of the truck. It is nice. I got 40 gallon and carry a few 7 gallon jugs if need be but generally enough for couple houses and more or big jobs before i go home and make more. I love being portable and just unrealing the hose and fliping a switch .
Since you are using Jugs of water and not from a Spicket, How do you make the water flow without water pressure? I understand you use a Pump to clean the water at home, but how to you create water pressure on the job?
@@Damster587 12v pump on my 40 gallon tank. I carry some extra 5 gallon jugs if I think I might need over 40 gallon for the jobs. I dump those in if needed
@@dridinger Thank you. What kind of battary do you use?
@@Damster587 I have a connector from the pump to a trailer hitch hookup on truck.
Can you use this system with a gas pressure washer?
I got a question for ya. Can/should you use a DI tank only filtration to bring your TDS down in 200-300 TDS water areas for traditional bucket and a squeegee water with soaps and glides to make it harder to see any imperfections does it make it harder to see imperfections, can it help newer employees make less noticeable mess-ups as they learn? (Its like maybe 50 cents per gallon then like goes down to less than 25 cents per gallon after refills unless my math is wrong)
You definitely could do that in areas with extreme hard water but since your removing the water from the glass with a squeegee I wouldn't sweat it
Can you shut the water off at the poles aka with a univalve so both poles are off. Will the pump cycle off or keep running?
It'll be on but it will be fine, if your going to leave it for a while though I would turn it off
Hey Steve O, hoping you can provide some insight on that 100 maximum psi recommendation.
So I got a sprinkler booster pump from harbor freight. When plugging the psi gauge to the outlet port of the pump (which is hooked up from sprinkler spigot), the gauge goes from 55 psi without the pump, to 110-120 psi with the pump on.
My flow has 2.5x'ed from 0.7gpm before, to just around 1.8 gpm with pump on, plus my TDS has gone from 22 down to 9!... I'd say the RO membrane is operating considerably better with the high pressure. I looked up the Axeon HF-5 that I used for my build, and the spec sheet says optimal psi @80 and maximum psi @400
I hope that I am correct in assuming my pressure @120psi with pump on is ok.
You will be fine as long as your housing is rated for that PSI. That membrane ran at 150 psi for two years. Found that to be a ideal range for performance. Now I run a membrane that is rated for higher pressure. I run it at 180-200 psi and it removes even more solids than the HF5. On 500 tds I get 3-5 tds just from the RO. I hardly ever use DI filters.
Hey, Steve-O
I'm going to add this service to my business.
When you were washing that window, I didn't see any soap or suds. When you use this you don't need any soap or cleaner? Just learning this skill. Thanks Steve-O
It's a pure water system. No chemicals or soap. When the water is deionized it basically magnetizes the water to pull the dirt away and rinse clear.
@@lifehacksformen8427 Thanks! That's science there. Lol. I'll keep watching all his videos. Thanks again!
Hey Steve.
Maybe it doesn't make much difference but wouldn't putting the pump in after the RO system be better?
No, the RO won’t produce enough to keep up with the booster pump. So you want to push it through the ROs
Hi, another great video. What do you recommend should I have 200 feet of hose having to clean a 3 story building. What setup would you recommend?
150’ to 200’ of 3/8” hose from the system to the pole with about 50’ - 60’ of pole hose
Hey Steve. At what point, distance, Elevation do you recommend adding a booster pump. Like how many feet of length? I want to get into cleaning solar panels on carports for commercial businesses and some of the water spickets maybe 150+ feet away from the panels. We get pretty good pressure here in Phx but just in case. I have the "on the go" spotless DI system right now. It seems to get pretty good flow for now. Thx
I would add one for 4 stories and up but with DI only adding a booster pump can mess up the purification process so I only suggest boosters with RODI systems
Thank you, is it better to have the Di tanks closer to the faucet or further down the line closer to the brush end?
So do these systems have a maximum psi? Can you hook up the delavan 100psi pump to one of these ?
I wouldn’t go over 90 psi my self
Do you think this would work with a D.I. filter
Yes you can. Just make sure you know how much pressure your di tanks can take on the inlet side.
I run a Wayne pump like this on my filter system daily. One thing you forgot to mention was you MUST flush the pump head with water BEFORE hooking it up to your filter. Those cast iron heads rust, and the rust if not flushed from the pump, clogs filters.
Secondly, running this booster pump PROLONGS the life of the RO filter. Low pressure kills a RO filter faster. The RO filters in these are meant to run at up to 100 PSI. The Wayne pump you use (and so do I) puts out up to 80 PSI. IMO the Wayne PC4 is the only 110 Volt pump worth messing with for these type of filter systems. Other booster pumps don't make enough pressure (or sometimes too much). IMO, the biggest benefit is the longer life span of the RO filter. Makes everything run better, and lowers TDS out of the RO. In turn, that means you are using less DI resin. For me, in a super HARD water area, this saves me a lot of money.
This pump doesn't push out 8o psi, maybe with the source pressure plus the pump, but this is rated at 40 psi as listed on our website, if you want a pump that can push out those levels you can check out this booster pump from tucker windowcleaner.com/tucker-110v-booster-system?pt=MY
What do you mean flush it? Turn on water spigot without the pump hooked up to RO system?
@@jacobtaylor8205 He means hook up the pump to water. Keep the outlet hose disconnected from your RO machine's input. Start the water then start the pump. Let the pump run for 30 seconds dumping water into the yard to wash out any rust that would of clogged up your filters. After that initial flush now connect the pump's output to your RO system's input and begin making RO water.
What the difference between with the xero one with the smaller and bigger di tank. How long would the di last ?
The larger system produces double the flow, the larger DI does last longer as far as less DI filter changes. windowcleaner.com/products/xero-pure-max?sca_ref=3020242.k17l3JaEgS
@SteveOthewindowcleaner is this wayne pump still a viable option. What's the difference between something like this and the Xero or Tucker booster pumps? The wayne pumps are considerably more affordable.
Its ok but rusts out very quick. Xero booster pump is a lot better due to the PSI can be regulated up to 100 psi and can also push/pull so a lot of different possible setups windowcleaner.com/products/xero-110v-booster-pump?sca_ref=3020242.k17l3JaEgS
I think I need this pump. I am so sick of having little water pressure sometimes I want to just Throw the Pole because it's so frustrating that it drips out and won't rinse the window Is correctly. I would say here in New Jersey the pressure is so so depending where you are but more times and not I'm very disappointed by the pressure and makes a job much harder.
Check out one like this, easy to hook up, really helps with pressure, I like this one because it doesn’t rust out inside windowcleaner.com/wayne-portable-stainless-steel-pump-1-hp?pt=MY
@@SteveOthewindowcleaner that link doesn’t go to any specific product. Doesn’t look like Wayne products are carried by WCR anymore. Is it the Wayne pls100?
is it best to stay around 90 psi for standarod xero pure revo?
90 psi will give the most output, average water pressure is 50 psi
with pump maybe 2-3 GPM so maybe two to three times more water with a pump right ? With some variations dependent on tap psi and the system your running on xr, max etc 🤔
With a pump, max would be about 2 gpm from the X2
@@SteveOthewindowcleaner ok that’s Awsome a huge improvement
I have a company up in Vail and have a job that we use our Xero on, but water access is a long distance away and traditional window cleaning isn't really an option. I've been using yards of garden hose but feel like I lose good flow. Is this pump a solution or are there any other tricks? Any advice on how you deal with this particular situation would be appreciated. Thank you
Definitely, this would for sure increase the flow
@@SteveOthewindowcleaner thanks
Do you have any tips for the zero pure water pressure is way to low and I'm having to plug a pump almost every job! Anything helps thank you
Make sure to use a 5/8" or 3/4" hose to supply water to the system, like this one windowcleaner.com/flexzilla-garden-hose?pt=MY and run 50-100' of 3/8" ID hose from the system to where you connect the small pole hose. That helps me a lot get better flow when using an RODI system
@@SteveOthewindowcleaner is there a video how to run the 3/8 hose to the wtf hose???
@@torreswindowcleaningmemo8210 th-cam.com/video/GmaIv36bKoI/w-d-xo.html
@@torreswindowcleaningmemo8210 it’s in this video, it’s the reel I run off the system that is 3/8” hose
What orange brush is that?
Its from Xline in the UK
Need help. Company has a SG1 system. What’s wrong when water runs through the pole/brush when extended up to 2.5 stories but flow stops when going higher? Need your feed back. Thank you
Which system is it?
@@SteveOthewindowcleaner Triple crown SG1 pure waterfed system
@@iragraham2706 those are very proprietary systems as far as the filters, make sure to use a standard garden hose to source water to the system. If you have had the system for a while change out the carbon filter, could be clogged up
Whats The price ON The pump?
Under $300, I would go with the stainless one though windowcleaner.com/wayne-portable-stainless-steel-pump-1-hp?pt=MY
@@SteveOthewindowcleaner do you use a gfi adapter.. i think i mean gfci adapter... when using the 110v pump or the 115v pump for the waterfed ?
I suggest doing a stainless steel pump instead of this pump in the video amzn.to/3N6DjsW
