a though.. .maybe you could just fill the fire hose with water instead for weight? will that work? (I am not usually required to recover my waste water so i'm not too fimilar with it myself)

Quick update..... Down Streamed 5% bleach onto the ground using a high draw down-streamer.... the bad stains didn't come out even with a flat surface cleaner (I had to wash the concrete anyhow)...... Turned around and brushed bleach straight from the bottle onto the ground.... WOW.... as soon...

The concrete floor / patio is brushed concrete. Around the concrete there is a plum tree and a bunch of blackberries which has left a bunch of stains on the concrete (from people stepping on the fruit). Are there any checmicals more sutiable to get the stains out of the concrete?... if not...

Installed valve on the high pressure side of the pump... works great :) One thing I did notice tho is that when the unloader is in bypass mode the pressure in the pump is very low.... low enough that the ez-start valve is venting water. When running tho, it works great, even with the...

This is kinda of a basic question, I've recently purchased a EZ start valve and am now unsure of where to put it. The machine is a BE 13hp unit running a general TS 1511 pump (i'll go double check tonight). Currently I see 4 "ports' on the pump, 2 of which are used. I'm assuming that the...

I mostly wash residential driveways and patios. These usually are not covered in grease like commercial driveways are. I’m currently using just a simple solution of bleach (or pool shock) mixed with a little bit of detergent (either laundry soap or dish soap to give it some foam)...

I have since started pre-soaking with chemicals and it has helped a lot (lines are still there if you are picky tho)..... they go away when dry but will show up again when the ground gets wet... annoying. if anybody has a suggestion i'm all ears.

IC, bigger tips it is :) Thanks for all the help guys... I think i've finally figured out my problem.... coles notes..... the soap tip I had was marginally too small, maybe a "defective" tip. I replaced it with another #40 soap tip and it works fine with 100ft of hose.... drilled out the old...

Is there a difference between reducing the pressure through the unloader and reducing the pressure by slowing down the engine (and not touching the unloader)?

Mark, you have mail :)

Sorry for the late reply... i've just been really swamped lately and didn't even get a chance to look at the pump yet... The reason I wanted to downstream using the extention pole was to get the solution up 2 stories.... i've not tried a 0 deg soap tip yet so i'm not sure how far they will...

Why should you NOT grab the dark blue dawn??? After looking around my house, the "ultra dawn, original formula" was the only one that did NOT have the 'do not mix with bleach' on the label. I had some palmolovie and other sented dawn versions at home and they all said NOT to mix with bleach.

After some more playing with the machine today....... There are no markings on the downstreamer :(.... no paint dot or size on it......... I just know it comes with the machine and is adjustiable..... I also dont' belive that there is anything stuck in the downstreamer. While I can get...

Yes I have tried a larger ID syphon hose... not really helping.. No tip in the gun, lots of soap even at 1/2 power on the engine...... didn't try full power tho (didn't want to blow out the o-ring in the coupler). I tried shopping for the larger soap tip today... no luck so far as it seems...
