So I had been running a secondary balanced relief valve off of a K7 flow actuated unloader valve for reducing flow (and higher temps) during indoor kitchen cleaning jobs. Recently I switched to pressure trap unloaders, VTR-3's, for a siamese kit. I reinstalled the secondary balanced relief...

Does anyone know off the top of there head which wire I tap into for a 12v burner on a Honda gx630,17A, with control box? I have the wiring harness schematic but not good at reading them. Burner has ground, constant, and (I assume) an excite wire (thats the one in question)

so I think I found a pretty good deal on a hydroMax diesel hot water skid. It is the 26 horsepower Kohler diesel. Does anyone have any experience with this brand? What about the heating system? Heat rise, coil quality?

I think I know the answer to this but thought I would ask. Is there a conversion gear drive or something to reverse the rotation of a small engine to direct drive (with lovejoy) a vac blower that was originally powered by an electric motor.Or is the only option to flip the small engine and...

Tweaked with my older Hydrotek yesterday and put in a different fuel nozzle on the burner (went from 2.25 to a 2.5). Been reading some comments lately about super heat and oil emulsification so I wanted to test it out a little. With reduced flow and new nozzle I got 225 degrees out of the coil...

A local business news magazine did a profile on my business this week. Hoping it will be some good marketing to my core target customers. Thus far I am 100% commercial and I think this magazine really appeals to local commercial businesses. We'll see if it helps out. Let me know what you...

I just got an email that the local business news magazine (http://www.cascadebusnews.com)is going to be doing a small article on my business for their "green businesses" issue. I would really like to mention the UAMCC in the article and was hoping to get some quotes/info from a executive...

I'm getting to the point where some of my larger projects are a little more than I can handle without killing myself (14+ hrs pressure washing solo). But its difficult to hire someone when my job frequency isn't every day work, so I decided to call a few of my competitors / other pressure...

So just wondering if you guys had an advice for me on this one. I have an older Hydrotek machine (only machine right now) and the previous owner and I have beat this thing up. It has countless hours on it, I've let the whole system freeze solid twice this winter, etc. Already rebuilt a...

I have a faulty microswitch in a PA pr16 pressure switch. Anyone know the exact model of microswitch? There is no part number on it. PA says its an in house p/n 12.5001.00. You can get a single switch online from electrical suppliers for like $3.00 but there are a few variables that I don't...

I cant get this guy in there. Has a beveled lip that I can not get to pop in.....advice?

Truck washing, where to even start on prices? I had an inquiry today about cleaning a semi and trailer. Was thinking about a simple soap/brush/high pressure spray off. He also wants a quick interior clean, not looking for a detail just vac and wipe down. Any pricing help appreciated. Thanks.

I don't know if everyone is just happy the holidays are over or what. I made 14 cold calls to restaurants this afternoon trying to solicit business in both the exterior and back of house, not one salty GM or pissed off staff member. I hate making cold calls, tend to feel rushed by the people on...

Im working on a GP 63 series TX1508A direct mount hollow 1inch shaft. This model has the built in unloader and bypass. The guy is using this pump for fleet washing and frequently has the thermal relief pop on him due to running in bypass and over heating. Packing assymblies are toast but...

Can someone help me understand steam cleaners and/or pressure washers with steam capabilities. Can you retrofit a hot pressure washer to produce steam? Also adjusting psi? I'm clueless and thinking of ways to make a more efficient unit for indoor jobs (tile/grout, real nasty goop, etc.)

Can you run an unlaoder upside down?

So I was asked to be a part of a local charitable raffle. I was thinking about doing a gift certificate for X amount of flatwork sqft-age, spring clean-up type deal. Then I could try to upsell them on some surface sealing, more pressure washing, etc. If nothing else it's a good cause and a...

Im new to this whole rss feed. I want to be able to self market a little more effeciently by having the ablitiy to post in one place (my website, work portfolio blog) and have that info pushed out to social media. I figured out how to get it pushed to Facebook Pages through two programs...

I did a couple of jobs today and every time I pulled away from where I was parked running my machine I noticed a decent sized drip puddle. Looked a little closer and it seemed like the inlet line to the pump head was weeping so I tightened it (it was a little loose). Next stop it was leaking...

Has anyone ever seen one of these or thought about utilizing something like this for commercial cleaning needs? http://www.aquacide.ca/home I have a line on one, cheap, practically new. Looked at it today. Has a 5.5hp Honda, Comet lwd3020, Beckett "cleancut" burner, electric hose reel. I was...
