Spot Free Plumbing

[Kar B Kleen]

Need some recommendations on what type and size hose/tubing to run to the bays for spot free rinse and at what pressure to deliver. Thanks for the suggestions.

I use a 3/4 HP motor and 2504 series Procon pump, a 500 PSI SMC regulator, 3/8" OD tubing, and run the pump at 225 PSI.

We are running 400 psi with 1/4" high pressure hose. It's a very noticeable difference from most typical washes.

I have run 450 PSI with 3/8" OD tubing and a 390 pump, I don't think my current cutomers care that it's 225, but the ones at a high end wash do.

I don’t mean to hijack, but what the hell. My SFR tank at the new to me wash is full of algae. Do you know what causes that?

 

[MEP001]

If it's green, it might be tire cleaner. There's something contaminating it for sure. Spot free water should be too clean for algae to grow in it.

I have been looking for necessary information about plumbing on forums, YouTube, etc. I’ve read so much information and concluded that I couldn’t even fix a faucet alone. It makes me feel like an inferior man. I agree that it sounds weird. I’ll have to go to a professional for help. My neighbor advised me of a service that could helps with emergency plumbing: https:/emencyplumbingoncall.com/ . Surely there are those among you who have appealed to them for help. Share your opinion, please. I will be glad of any advice and feedback

It is probably just a spambot.
