And then there's Mark VII.....Nuff said!

Looks Great! Glad my design helped you come up with a workable solution!

You've got a point. Max operating pressure is 150 using water. We literally have 100's of Asco valves in service where I work (Manufacturing) and I've never heard of any issues with them. They run 24-7...365 days a year.... So curiosity got the best of me. Took my spare apart and it has a brass...

My point being, maybe the wrong valve was being used for a specific application causing it to fail prematurely. Too high of flow rate for this valve. How is it the valves fault?

So maybe the culprit? 10gpm! Through a 1/2" valve?? I weep 64oz minute for 4 HP Hoses, so very low flow. I feed the valve with a 3/4" poly braid hose to slow water flow even further to minimize or eliminate water hammer when the valve shuts off...So could this be why some are seeing exceptional...

What kind of flow rate are we looking at on a Vector unit?

Glad Randy and I got the two good ones they made!

This is what I designed to replace the original antiquated Mark VII weep system. It also incorporates air blowdown and washer fluid injection for semi automatic/manual operation....The two poly tubes at the bottom are for air and washer fluid. Weep water comes in from the top... I also have a LP...

Glad I bought my Asco (and Spare) before the quality went to crap! To be honest, the PO had a Dema piston actuated solenoid installed instead of a diaphragm solenoid....I can see how a Piston Actuated solenoid can be a PITA! Its interesting how different locations can have issues with one or the...

Interesting...I had a Dema in the beginning and froze up more than I care to remember. Switched it out with an asco at Randy's suggestion and its been fine now for about 10 years! Could water quality play a factor? I weep city water that doesn't go through my softener...Its only about 4-5 grains...

Any pictures of the outside?

OK.... I see now, the one you linked to is in Fahrenheit! I bought a mechanical well type t-stat that controls my floor heat from the return coolant temp...Has a mechanical spring actuated temp differential. Would be nice to replace it with something digital so you can actually "See" what is...

$4700/month is definitely within range of what a 4 bay SS can make. Busiest intersection in town with no other carwash within 3-5 mile radius AND a 400 unit subdivision going in across the street adds significant value...IMHO.... Although, agreeing with Mep, the owner still cuts grass but was...

CB80, thanks for posting...Might not hurt to have a few of these on the shelf! Do you know if you can switch the display to Fahrenheit? The description only shows Celsius. Also I've found this T-stat as low as $11.01 if you buy (2)!! If nothing else, cheap insurance to never have a failure to...

Wow! I couldn't imagine that purple dye all over a white car! We also use calcium Chloride to load tractor tires. But have never heard of beet juice!

Maybe referring to Liquid Calcium Chloride? That's what they use here now. Some nasty stuff. But profitable for a CW!

Since you have a recirculation system and well, why would you want to cycle your weep on and off? A weepmiser is designed to save water running down the drain like most of our systems do. How big is the pump? Voltage/Amps....Electricity to run a pump is cheap...If I had a recirculation system...

(y) I hope Nuphoenix comes back and explains what he want to hook up to output one if its something other than a weep solenoid...

Was you directing that comment to Nuphoenix or me? Surely you know by now I understand relay logic and how to apply it. ;) I was asking Nuphoenix Why he would want a weepmizer with a reversed current output 1....I can't think of anything you'd want to run off output 1 other than a weep solenoid...

Why do you want a NC weepmizer? Typically output 1 is energized when no weep is called for AND using a NO solenoid. The solenoid is powered closed when no weep is called for. That way if power goes out, the NO solenoid will keep things from freezing. To answer your other question, along with...
