Winterizing mix question
With the super low temps we've had recently, my usual mix of 50/50 water to windshield washer fluid is turning to slush and beginning to freeze in my hose. I've upped the washer fluid to counter this and placed a pipe heater tape around my pump head. Seems to be working so far, but we were at -2 degrees ye... |

Placement of Agitator / Jet in Tanks
Where is the best place to physically mount a recirculation jet in a chemical or mix tank? In the corner pointing parallel to the long side or in the middle pointing where-ever? I was just about to mount one in a corner, but thought this is a permanent hole in the tank, I'd better not get it wrong. Does any... |

Storing extension poles
Does anyone have a good system for storing extension poles on their truck with the brushes left on? I don't like the guys to have to screw on the brush heads on every job. I want it semi-open for drying, and lockable. I carry 2 Mr. Long Arm type poles and a carbon water fed. |

Cool Tool
One of my guys had one of these hose clamp making tools for working on race cars. It is awesome. Makes the best hose clamps super cheap. I have been using one for a year and have not had one leak yet, and even better, no more sharp screw clamp tabs slicing up your hand. Check it out http://www.clamptitet... |

penta flex fix
One of my penta flex pumps started sounding like a coffee grinder so I took it apart . I found that the bearing that is in the head had gone bad . I got the new bearing from Napa for $15 and changed it out with the bad one . Now my pump sounds like a hummingbird. The Napa part # is in the picture below. When I fix my... |

New Trailer Build-out
Love my SWS cradle skid and use it every day, but due to the nature of many of the properties we do, I still have a need for a large scale multi-purpose trailer. The old one was getting a little ragged and cramped, so I felt it was time to create a new one. This one features a 350 gallon fresh water tank, 65 gall... |

No Hose Bib
I'm tying to work with an apartment complex for cleaning siding and shingles. I have the Softwash System rig in my pick-up. I have no other equipment - except for the ryobi pressure washer 7 hp, 3000 psi, 2.7 gpm that has been in garage for 4 years - I don't know if it will even start. I have no trailer or t... |

Need an extra 5 feet?
Sometimes we just can't quite reach what we need, so we invented this extension to fit on a garden hose for rinsing. |

Electrical Upgrade
I Have been using one of my Pentaflex pumps for about 4 months now. I am taking it out of my setup for chem application, and reinstalling my beloved Delavan 5850. Too much chemical application and waste for me with the Pentaflex. During my change over, I decided to install an electrical distribut... |

The dangers of pressure washing
It is so important to highlight the dangers of pressure washing and the risk factors. Here is a roof cleaner in Pembroke Pines, Florida, with two guys, one holding the pressure washer on top of the roof, while the other using a wand to clean the roof. Base on my estimate, these guys were on the this roof... |

Battery Chargers for Deep Cycle Batteries.
This is what I use on my boats and as an option of our equipment. Charges your battery as you drive. Can have up to 3 leads for charging three batteries plus your starting battery. Can also add a AC charger to the pack (pro pack) for charging when you get home and park. I added one to my tournament boat and nev... |
