Other than melting ice off of cars to get them clean in the winter, there's no benefit to having a hot rinse other than marketing. Rudy's barbecue stores around here have touchless autos with hot everything, including rinse. The crazy thing is they use on-demand electric heaters for...

I used to worry about it, I'd maneuver the hose to get it out, and the first time the chemical runs empty it's back. I have enough OCD issues without worrying about air in the hose that doesn't hurt anything.

It's a pump stand. It stands just fine and pumps just fine. I'd buy a used pump stand before I bought anything like that from Kleen-Rite.

It will eventually go away. It may take a year or two. It doesn't hurt anything. In those tight tanks, whenever I have to replace the suction hose, I rotate the eductor from 6 o'clock where yours is to 1 o'clock, then run the hose in through the lower hole. It gives you a couple more feet of...

There used to be a bunch of Splash and Dash units around here. They're all gone. Best pumps are Cat or Arimitsu.

It's not unusual to have to partially close the ball valve. Moving the tee to the pump may help, depending on the length of the hose. Adding this check valve puts just enough restriction on the water line without causing any issues. I've been using them for 20 years and haven't had any fail...

That's barely a one compared to what I've gotten.

The McMaster photo is a 3D render. There might be a difference somewhere, but all the main specs are the same.

You call that a mess? ;)

I haven't had much luck rebuilding them. You might want to swap it to another bay to be sure it's the problem. It's rare that the regulator causes a problem like you're having, but I've seen it several times. I doubt you'll find anything wrong, but as long as you're careful not to lose any...

If I were close enough to my wash, I'd put methanol and some extra soap in the tank at night before the freeze and run it through the lines. I've done this a few times before, but it's just too far of a drive to do it every time. If we had more regular freezes I might set up a second tank with...

The Paraplate regulator is probably bad.

Looks to be the same.

Since they leak right out of the box, it's probably not methanol.

I would advise against having the regulator fully on the opposite side of the inlet and/or outlet. Every time the trigger is pulled or released, the flow has to change direction in the pump, and it can cause a very brief cavitation which can destroy the manifold. It doesn't always cause a...

Thanks, I forgot about the keypad doors.

Why? Wouldn't you want to get as much moisture out of the line as possible before the dryer?

It sounds like you might have a supply issue. The Hydrominders are not on the regulated line, they're usually direct from the main supply unless it's been modified.

That's an air only regulator. They do have one for air and liquid that's nearly identical to the Parker: https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-1682-norgren-r06-221-nnka-mini-regulator-air-water-1-4.aspx
