Dont see much info on bug remover. I think it would be a good idea, what am I missing ? Any chemicals that work better than others ? Thanks

Any secrets or tips for low pressure overhead boom manifolds ? I realize its just a bunch of fittings and check valves but is there a method to the madness ? Best check valves for the job ? Certain pipe fitting material that works better ? Any photos of how it should look ? Thanks as always...

I'm doing my own rehab on my now paid for 3 bay ss. After checking prices on new equipment, I decided to just build it all myself. You have given me great feedback on the high pressure equip, now for the low pressure !!!! PreSoak, Tire, Bug , Foam Brush, etc.... How would you do it ? Seems...

When using a Single Hose or Single Hose VFD system, do the low pressure chemicals go into the pump at application strength or are they mixed at the pump head with fresh water and diluted there ? Thanks

So I guess your not using an injector on you HP pump for soap and wax, just have the dosatrons running into solenoid valves and then into the inlet port of the pump ? On your low pressure, are you using the procon to boost the water pressure before the dosatron or between the dosatron and the...

Makes sense and sounds simple. I guess you are just using one injector for both soap and wax ? Do you just " T " the soap and wax together before the injector ? I wasnt aware that the injectors would work at a low flow rate like on the inlet of a SS pump. Are you using just any special hose to...

so, if I understand correctly. You have city water pressure going straight into the 413p and then into the regulator ? And are you using two DEMA 203c injectors downstream of the regulator just before the pump inlet ? What are you using for soap and wax ? Hydrominder tanks or something else ...

Randy, I have thought about this. You are using city water pressure through a regulator and shutting it on/off with the DEMA solenoid valve. How and where are you injecting soap / wax ? Inlet side of pump, high pressure side ? Thanks

I'm going to remodel my 3-bay SS wash soon. Built in 1985 still has original equipment ( wash , rinse , wax , and brush ). After pricing out some SS equipment I have decided to build it myself. So....... Need some help choosing the parts. Need input on the following: High pressure pump...

Ok so if I understand you correctly, you are thinking of using the dosatron on soap or wax as the only supply to the pump when wax or soap are selected ? Even the smaller dosatrons can handle 11 GPM so one could handle 3 bays at the same time. That's in interesting thought. You could very...

I have thought about the same thing. Would you just run a line from the dosatron down to the wax / soap solenoid on the inlet of the pump ? I guess you would be injecting into the suction side of the pump at a slight pressure above gravity feed ?

No, I have a 3bay self serve I purchased about 7 years ago. I have just about paid off the loan. I've been bandaging the thing together to keep it going and Now it's time for a remodel. After looking at lots of equipment and getting prices, I have decided just to build it myself. So, I'm just...

Kevin, What pressures are you settling it up as ? I'm guessing your setting your flojets up just a little above the city pressure ? Also are you using any type of solenoid valve on the incoming water line or just straight into the pump ?

May be a dumb question but on a system that uses straight city water pressure, how do you get soap and wax to work ?

Going to remodel my ss wash and I really like the idea of the VFD systems with the single hose to the bay and no more low preassure pumps. Does anyone have experience they would share both with any pros and cons about their system or recomendations of a system? Thanks

Bill, Nice Presentation. Thats exactly what I was looking for. I'm going to purchase one and learn to use it. Any suggestions on a good self teach, DVD Course, etc.. I should pick up ? I would like a class but its hard with my schedule. thanks -Brandon

Going to remodel my oldest wash soon. Anyone have Custom Kraft SS equipment and care to give opinions on it ? I'm looking at the VFD system, but the older Multi=pressure system is very similar. Thanks -Brandon

Those of you that are using a PLC to control your SS wash, what brand / model are you using ? To be honest, its just something I would like to play around with and see what I can make one do. :)

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm going to check everything over and keep an eye on it and see what happens.

I have 5hp Toshiba 3 phase motors running CAT 530 Pumps. I have one bay that will slow down then speed back up randomly when someone is using it. Sounds like its bogging down and going to stop then it speeds back up. Is this a sign of a motor going bad ? I have turned everything by hand...
