I had a Kip 4 Solenoid Manifold on PS for about 4 years before one of the solenoids started leaking by....Since I have a blowdown system for PS which shares a foam gun with TF, it would eventually allow the hose and gun to freeze even though I have air shutoffs to the flojets. At first, I tried...

My HTP is 55 gallon 199k btu. I have 4 Ss bays. Most busy day was 4400 gallons used and it kept up fine....

If anyone is interested in coal as an alternative heating source... BTW, another benefit is it keeps my 1000sq ft shop/garage heated to 62° just from the radiant heat, no matter how cold it gets. So this furnace is basically heating 3500 sq ft on $1200 a winter.

WOW, talk about price gouging! I don't know how they are able to get away with that!! So you are absolutely right about going with Propane...Buy it in the off season and be prepared. I always say, if you have a spare part on the shelf, you'll never need it! I really don't trust the grid at all...

I might be the lone ranger here....I have my HTP set at 100°....When its cold out, there's a much bigger temperature differential between the air and HP hose and is very noticeable. I get positive comments all winter long as I am the only one who heats water (that I know of) in my area. In the...

Did anyone loose NG pressure? That hasn't happened where I live as far as I know. Propane stand alone tanks might be a better backup if you've ever had NG shortage.

Like Randy said, take good advice from guys that live where it can get real cold. This heater doesn't use electricity! I always use it in conjunction with the NG ceiling furnace. Below 40°, I turn one burner on. Below 20°, I turn both burners on. They make 2, 3, and 5 burner models and They are...

There used to be a Cat 310 Sticky Thread. Where'd it go?

Mark VII pump stand?

That might have something to do with it! 😁

Like IB says...He has an old Mark VII system that has weep shutoff solenoids for each bay for when a LP is selected. It still has a master weep solenoid that feeds the system. I had the same random freeze issue before I ripped out all the secondary solenoids. They would stick closed when someone...

I mainly use SMC push to connect fittings on the LP connections and a few John Guest fittings too...Most have been in service at least 8 years...Not a single leak. And I have more than a hundred in operation, 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2"...I don't have a single compression fitting left at the wash...

I can attest to this! It's fact!

I have Hot/Cold gravity tanks, about 10 gallons each with individual ball valves to each pump for servicing. Erie valves that switch between hot/cold...Wax/Soap is hot water, rinse is cold water...Plumb with 1/2" hose and fittings. No need for valves to throttle water to pumps. 1/2" plumbing has...

Can you provide a video of the results you are currently getting?

I would think pulling a Methanol Soap mix from a single tank for FB and HP Soap won't work...If you get FB to work right, the HP soap is going to be too weak...

I'm siding with Mep and JGinther on this one. Sounds like the transformers aren't phased correctly if commons are connected. Especially when you say they are down to 1 bay and it seems to be working correctly....Makes sense IF they have power turned off to the other affected bays...

I run G57 Sanoprene on PS and a procon on TF. I get 4-5 years out of the PS flojet running 60psi air. I'm also a little different than CB80 on the tubing. I use 3/8 all the way from the kip manifold in the ER out to the boom tip to minimize pressure loss. Somewhere I read there is an 8x...

Mine 10 years ago....Atrocious! Check out those hydrominder supply hoses draped across the pumpstand...No wonder it never worked very good. The design was almost impossible to work on! Glad I took pictures of it then so I can see how far its come!
