I'm looking to buy 100 foot hose what hose do you recommend? The one I have now is just way to stiff and wants to bunch up. Thanks again
I like the northern tool hose
Flexzilla is great for me
@@lastnamefirst650flexzilla is for Softwashing
Thank you for taking the time to make this & share what you have learned. Very helpful.
This video is what started it all for me!
That’s awesome I remember when it first came out
been doing this for years. A+
Thanks buddy for explaining it
Thanks will be ordering from Lexington wash supply
Great video makes job very easy
thanks Mr. Cut
Awesome video
I just got my setup going and it soaps great but I have to keep adjusting the ball valve from open to close to keep picking up soap. any ideas?
Use this method all the time, works very well. A+
Dude your videos are cool. Can you build me one of those Rigs ?
How? IT doesn't pull soap for me.
brilliant idea to get it foaming thanks ...what have you got the pressure on you washer set at,,or duz it really matter ,,,cheers don
newbie question, what else is on the end of the hose besides the ball valve - thanks in advance
hey Michael, what about washing a metal building with just light buildup from the environment. customer just wants to have it washed and down and shine it up a bit. what detergent would you use? thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge.
Do you have to have the female end at the end of the ball valve to make it effective? I currently have the male end at the end of my ball valve. Thanks.
I am looking for a ball valve for my 4000psi washer. What ball valve do you use in this video. Thanks
How much hose do you use after ds injector
What kind of solutio n are you using..
Mike is that small building that you down stream is that aluminum?// if so is sodium hypochlorite is good for aluminum? if not what would you recommend...for aluminum Chris...
I put a 3/8" barb w/quick connect on the end of the ball valve for hood cleaning applications. I got this tip from you first though Mike. Thanks man.
what do i do if valve is down
Did you just use your normal sh/elemonator mix?
Mike, will oxygen bleach clean as good as chor. bleach? Is chor. bleach what you use most on mold, mildew, etc...
Thanks
Did you use it with your pressure washing or softwash . How mamy gpm?
I do it every day and haven't lost an o ring yet.
what soap was that? was sh added
What is the color change?
The problem I had with downstreaming on stucco, is, it seemed to be diluted too much by the time it hit wall, it wouldn't get the black streaks off. Finally I make a batch in a sprayer and sprayed directly on, and it lifted right out, then used the pw for a rinse. I'm a 5 gallon bucket I had 4 gallons 10% SH and the appropriate amount of jomax with some ride. So I guess downstreaming works great for the non porous material. But I gave it up
I hate stucco
what else would you need besides 12% and a surfactant? wouldn't those 2 do the job professionally
are you trying to get into commercial tank washing?
sorry to be nosy, just seeing you out there at oakley made me wonder
What type injector
do you clean a lot of whiskey fungus houses or do people just not care and leave it alone?
Hey Mike... Have you had better luck with freshwash or Elemonader with your house wash mix?
I recently started using elemonator and it is amazing! You cannot smell the bleach at all! Garnnit you can't smell lemon either but it is neutral and it is worth it.
pro!!
So u can use soap turn off soap an spray clean water to rinse just using a ball valve without goin back to ur machine an switching things out. I have been wondering if this was possible hopefully I understood u correctly. Please reply
Yes you can do that
@@kingofpressurewash but I have to have a return from my pressure washer to my holding tank correct.
I've heard you say before never use bleach on wood. Is that just bare wood? Would the solution of SHypo+E be safe to use on painted wood and hardy plank?
So say using 2 gal of 12%, 2 gal of water + E down streaming will be ok?
I went to the site in the description link and it says you can buy that domain name so apparently they're not selling anything anymore just trying to sell their business off. is there a new link that we can go to?
Thanks I fixed it now
I live just north of Columbus in Ohio and just bought a new 4400 psi 4 GPM Pressure Washer. Where do I buy my downstream injector at? Anybody?
John Smith 😴
Great video! I’ve seen this technique used before and I LOVE IT. The only thing is, whenever I try to use this technique myself, it doesn’t work!
I have a 4,000 PSI Dewalt Pressure Washer and 3/8 ball valve but when I take my gun or sweeper off to utilize the ball valve rinse, I get LOW PRESSURE. It seems odd to me because logically it seems the pressure should still come out, as it does in this video and pretty much every other one I’ve seen. When my gun or sweeper is attached, the pressure is phenomenal. I just want to use this technique and haven’t been able to!😆
Do you have any thoughts on why I’m not getting the same results? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
you dont open the valve all the way...slowly open it until you get the stream you want
I brought everything and try it out with my pressure waher too with 4,000 psi and I have the same problem.
Did you figure it out how to fix that?
I think it's about the gpm . My pressure washer is 3.5 gpm
So if I built my setup similar only thing differ t I used was a lever ball valve, what would cause it to not build pressure? Made sure I did everything right but when I crack the valve even just a little bit to try and build pressure it just doesn’t build. I’m stumped, any suggestions?
Doesn't feel pressure before you open the ball valve
@@kingofpressurewash yeah, when I initially barely crack it, it has decent pressure but it’s nothing you can wash with. After it runs for a second it goes down to a light stream
What soap is he talking about? I thought you only cleaned a house with SH and surfactant?
so the ball valve is not all the way open for soap. and all the way open for rinse ??
Actually, it would be the opposite. The more open the valve, the less pressure and more water flow (water is traveling through the hose freely and at higher volume). Higher water flow is what draws the soap into the stream. As you begin to close the valve, this restricts water flow and increases the pressure by forcing the water through a smaller outlet. This stops the high volume of water flowing through the system, and keeps the soap from being drawn. Hope that helps.
How do you keep from losing o rings from the quick disconnect?
Guess I better buy stock in them things. Thanks for getting back and enjoy the videos
I lose one every time by accident. Not sure how he's not blowing out his o-rings
what % bleach to water were you using on that building, and did you use any cling on
What did your ratio end up being after the down stream and through the hose. I'm right at the max with my crap injector with 200' hose.....I was told to check out Adams injectors or envirospecs injectors. I enjoy your videos ....keep up the good work.
Your not the only one that has said that about envirospec, what was your run in with them? I would like to talk to you outside of TH-cam if at all possible, you seem like a straight forward person who likes to share information. How would I be able to get a hold of you
It doesn't draw any soap when I use a ball valve. Anyone know why?
Is the ball valve open up enough?
What ball valve is it? Or viewers, which one would you recommend?
It's the d10 ball valve
@@kingofpressurewash dn10?
Every time I use this method I blow out my oring what can I do
I only blew out a O-ring maybe one out of 150 times. You can also put the mail in and out to
How many o rings are you replacing?
Not many at all
If you have a problem with o rings popping off I just put a open male quick connect at the end of the female keep it in place when rinsing.
what surfactant are you using? I"m using 1 oz elemonator in 5 gallons and not getting near those suds
It would help if I had read the instructions from pressuretek. Lol. Great videos btw. Very helpful.
I can't get my ball valve to draw soap for some reason.
what chemicals are u using in the video
What ratio would you recommend? Should 12.5% or 5.25% SH be used? Thanks for all your videos they are helping me expand my business. Much appreciated.
i use the 10% s/h. i get my s/h from walmart in the pool department. the 10% s/h that they carry is called (pool essentials)
@@anthonyvega1959 do you mix it with water on a bucket or downstream straight up from the gallon?
@@antoniorivera1311 I usually mix it in a home depot bucket with water or sometimes I won't dilute it depending on the stain
What kind of soap you applying?
sh
thought so
good video I have one question the soap product that u used is it green friendly?
Yeah same here thanks just looking for better products that will eliminate that oxidation from the gutters.... Thanks
For gutters try f13 gutter grenade purple power and soap through a foam cannon
So the balls make it foam.. is the male end on your gun...
Have you ever tryed a foam lance..
Just ball valve it the pressure will Foam up from the 90-100 psi
@@kingofpressurewash ya not sure mine goes that low.. thanks for the replay..
Whenever I ds it never cuts that good. Even with fresh 12% sh... Am I missing something?! Lol
Yeh, any chance you would mind sharing your mix on this? Are you using SH at all since it's on metal?
Thanks
Pretty hot mix whatever it is.
im a little upset you didnt show the finished product! so anti climatic!
A bald valve is better than a hair valve.
Hey Michael, I have my ball valve set up and i have having issue getting good soap flow. All i had was a gas ball valve. i was trying to set this up for a house wash in the morning. I flow good soap with the 65 black tip on my gun but it seams i can not with the ball valve. I want to apply and rinse like you do for house wash. So much faster! Any help would be GREATLY appreciated buddy! Love the Videos!! Jeff - 251-213-8255
+Michael Kreisle , I went with 1/2" valve. almost went with 3/4". After setting everything up today and testing, it works great with the srpay wand with the soap tip and even better with a variable soap tip. I can fan or solid stream nicely. I still want to get the ball valve set up correctly.
+Lawn Enforcement all i could find on hand was a Gas 1/2" ball valve..... at the time. works great to shut off water, change gun and fill the bucket! LOL
What chemical is that?
