Looks like you took the batch mix link down from this morning . It was there early on . That's ok I can understand you are probably to busy to me hassled by mooches all the time : I figured out how you did it and you gave the formula . So I can download it into Excel myself . Thanks again for you efforts
@@cramerlong2276 go to my website. Renewpowerwashco.com. The link is there for you to download
@@RenewPowerWashCo Yes I found that . But for me it says View only . However once I looked at your format and the formula you gave at the end of this Video . I was able to insert that info into excel perfectly . So I wanted to thank you for the info. It saved me a bunch of time in my startup . Thanks for being so generous in an industry I have found most are rather selfish and arrogant in. Unless you are paying them . Your video gave me an instant understanding of the process. Your calculator makes it super fast . Which can still be used when I upgrade beyond batch mixing .
A tip I never see is how to get business. I go into areas of nicer homes . Find the one with the worst roof . I approach the home Owner and offer him a Free roof wash . In return I leave a sign in his yard for 2 weeks . So far 2 months in . I have done 3 free roofs and got 40 jobs out of it . All in a 5 block radius . Most I do the roof and then end up having the homeowner want the rest of the house done . I've made more money in the last 2 months . Then I made in a whole year at my previous job. That closed up due to Covid and never re-opened .
Im just a dude looking to clean my driveway and sidewalk and found this video to be very useful. Many thanks!
Glad it helped
Thanks for the video! Super helpful as I just got into the business.
Done. Excited to get this file. I think itâll be a game changer for me and take out so much of the confusion for me.
Great content!! Thank you for showing the formulas! Thatâs super clutch! đ€đŸ
Thank you my friend
Great content! This helps me tremendously đđŸ
Glad it helps
Damn, and people think you dont need math. Great job!!!
Awesome, was looking to build an excel file for this today. You made it simple.
Thanks!
best video i came across that actually broke down what i needed to see thanks bud
Glad it helps my friend.
absolutely amazing video here! thank you so much! just purchased my xjet and ive heard a lot of guys say just run sh out of the bucket but i figured at 1:1 that would be too hot for some of my jobs.
Thank you man I appreciate you showing hand pump sprayer option!
You bet
AMAZING, Bro! thank you.
Youâre welcome
Great info> simple and easy
Glad it was helpful!
This is awesome thank you! I will donate
Hope it helps and thank you
This may be the most useful video Iâve seen on CZcams. Thank you.
Thanks
Good job that will help a lot if people
Thanks. Glad it helps.
Thanks for sharing this information
Thank you for this !
My pleasure!
your the MVP for this chart, just saying
This was the most informative video that I have seen, anywhere on CZcams! I could never find a video that answered my questions. But this video, covered all my questions!
It was nice, informative, straight to the point, and very clear in explaining everything from a beginner standpoint.
Thank you so very much! I truly appreciate this video! đ„°đ
Appreciate that. Glad to help
Best explanation yet. Had no clue about any of this stuff until now. Thank you much bro.
Glad to help
Thanks for the video I was confused about using my xjet until I watched your video.
Glad it helped
Great video
Awesome!
Great info.
Liked, shared, subscribed. Awesome video! Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the sub!
Thank you so much! With your formulas, I was able to create my own in a matter of minutes! The only thing left is everyone measuring out the flow rate of their pressure washer/downstream injector combination. Mine happens to be 12:1 so I merely changed the formula ending with "10" to "12".
By chance could you help me out and send me this temple. Iâve emailed him but no cigar!
Thank you, this helps. How hot should we make it for different surfaces
Homeowner here for the hand pump option. We have a small area to clean and a 1 gallon hand pump. I added an excel formula to convert gallons to ounces/quarts/cups. In the hand pump part of the spreadsheet I added 3 new rows below "Batch Gallons" number.
Put this formula in the first new cell to show Ounces =CONVERT(A19,"gal","oz")
Quarts =CONVERT(A19,"gal","qt")
Cups =CONVERT(A19,"gal","cup")
The formula is automatic when you enter the hand pump gallon size.
If you enter 1 batch gallon, the new cell reads 128oz/4qt/16cups.
If you enter 1.5 for that size pump sprayer it reads 192oz/6qt/24cups.
2 gallon pump sprayer it reads 256oz/8qt/32cups.
Now you have to add a new cell and copy his formula, =(A19/B19)*C19, but change the A19 to the new cell that has the converted number.
Using his example @ 10:50 for a 1.5 gallon hand pump with 12.5% SH for 3% mix. The calculated answer is 0.36 SH and 1.14 Water which is not easy to understand. I needed to convert it to measurments I can use to add to my 1 gallon pump sprayer.
Conversion:
Ounces. 46.08 ounces of SH and 145.92 ounces of Water.
Cups. 5.76 cups of SH and 18.24 cups of Water.
Quarts. 1.44 quarts of SH and 4.56 quarts of Water.
For my purposes. I have 1 gallon pump sprayer and I'm gonna use 10% SH and shooting for a 2% mix to test the area and work up from there.
Ounces. 25.6 SH and 102.4 Water
Cups. 3.2 SH and 12.8 Water
Quarts. 0.8 SH and 3.2 Water
Hope this helps for those of us using hand pump sprayers.
I'd convert to pints, but pints are for drinking Guinness.
Man thatâs great you
really should consider on creating an app for that.
Maybe I will thx.

Great Video - Finally someone has given some answers to this.
Im ordering x jett tomorrow. So if im use to mixing a 3% mix in a 2 gallon pump sprayer, would I mix it the same way in a 2 gallon pail and still get 3% out the x jett? Im going to upgrade to a 5 gallon pail and im only concerned with getting 2 mixes. A 3% and a 5%. How would I do that?
Hello ! Great video ! Great calculator ! I sent email after completing instructions :) ! Would love a copy please ! This will help a ton as Iâm getting started in the business !
Do I have to use a proportioner when using a X -jet or can I follow your formula??
Hey man nice calculator!! How do I go about getting it? It says itâs not available thanks!!
So if im downstreaming in a 5 gallon using 12.5 sh and i want .80 or .90 for house washing ! how much sh ? sorry im new at this. or should i just do the 1 percent ?
I have a 3.5 gpm machine and im gonna use 10% sh do i use a proportioner or no
I have a 4.0 gpm machine using the downstream system and would like to get a 1 or 1.5 ratio
Can I make a payment for the calculator? Says unavailable. Nice video! Learned alot
no need to put proportioner tip on the x jet since the batch itself is diluted to proper ratio correct? just run the set up as 1:1 and dilute the sh directly.
Are you using any proportioner and does the power washer spec change this at all?
This may be a dumb question, if I use a foam cannon and put straight 10% SH am I getting 5% off the tip .. 1:1 ?
My xjet had interchangeable tips for the ratio, I thought they all did or do you not use them ?
Running 4gpm 4000psi belt drive pressure washer. Doing mobile homes. Was thinking 2 gallons of 10% bleach and 3 gallons of water in Xjet bucket? No proportioners.
Thatâs 4% SH in your x- jet bucket diluted at 1.6:1 gives you 1.5% at the tip
I must be having a senior moment, where can I get the excel?
Thanks
Im from the uk. Wht would my ratio be if im using 10% hypo in a 5L/(1.1 imperial gallon) hand sprayer.
It depends oh how âhotâ of a mix you want. With a hand sprayer you can go as much as full strength if you do not add any water. If you want 5% SH it would be half SH, half H2O. It comes out the tip however you mix it in the pump sprayer. Simple.
Awsome video, always follow your content. Keep grinding. God Bless. How can I get a copy of the batch mixing excel program. Thanks again
Thank you. Instructions in description to get your copy. Thx again
Can you do an example of x jet for 4gpm 1.6:1 ratio 5 gallons ,10% Sh, need 5% bleach
Working on a more intuitive BM calculator. Check back soon.
I am getting a Page Not Found message when I try the link to the document. Is it still available?
So downstreaming 10% on a house, 5:0 ratio in a 5 gal pale? If 2.5:2.5 is that weak, I could just guess it would take the whole 5 gallons of SH to properly clean? Iâve been using 2 gallons of SH to 3 gals of water on every vinyl house I wash.
If you are downstreaming out of a 5 gallon bucket with straight, undiluted 10% SH, the SH will be around 1% when it goes on the house. If you add 50% water to the SH in the buck youâve already diluted it to 5% SH so itâll be around 1/2% SH on the house. Thatâs a little low to be real effective but I imagine if it sits long enough itâll work. I prefer straight SH in the bucket and letting the injector dilute it properly
What about a 8:1 ratio? What % am I getting if Iâm using just straight 12.5% SH?
1.38%
I have a 225 tank for water I also have a 35 gal tank do I need to use that for bleach or surfactant ?
I use it for SH.
My pressure washer is a 17:1 ratio is there an app that will help me with this
Hey,
Another question with your formula.
When you this formula is the pressure washer on full throttle? Or half way?
Full
Am I right in thinking the formula for pump up sprayer will also work for a 12v softwash setup?
Pretty much
So is the 1.25 from the downstream a good ratio to use for roofs, driveways, houses, decks, fences? Or just house specifically? Like siding, brick, etc?
Shingled Roofs, stucco and brick usually require a higher ratio. Xjet works for that. Stucco and brick are porous so wetting the surface with water before applying chemicals helps the chems work better because it sits on the surface longer
@@RenewPowerWashCo so I guess there is no general ratio to use for kind of everything to make the mixing easier for guys starting off?
So you couldnât do all jobs with just a downstreamer?
@@CitizenJournoTN I guess you could it would just take multiple applications. shingled roofs definitely need a hot mix that downstreaming just doesnât provide.
@@RenewPowerWashCo doing wood fences and decks you could use the same ratio and low pressure to clean? Would that be effective?

How can I get this file? Says not available :(
I have a 2.7 gpm would that ratio change if Iâm using the xjet, because Ik the flow would be way different then a 4gpm. I also use 12.5%
I believe itâs still 1:1 unless you use the proportioners they supply with the x-jet. You will need to make sure you buy the proper x-jet for your gpm machine.
@@RenewPowerWashCo yes I do. Iâve only used it once because it stuck up all my solution in like 2 minute. I think itâs because I didnât have proportionerâs in.
@@tazharrison8189 Iâve always heard it is a 1:1 mix ratio with no proportioner installed, but I may research this a bit more. I think for a 2-3 gpm machine that ratio would be correct, but the ratio may increase with a higher gpm machine. I think I saw a chart once that showed 1.6:1 ratio for a 4gpm machine. I may need to add notes in the video description to avoid further confusion. Thanks for asking your question.
@@RenewPowerWashCo Thank you for your video. Looking forward to more video
So I have a 2.5 gpm pressure washer what would the x jet ratio be
~ .8:1
How do we get this excel?
What's ratio if I'm using 10 percent sh 5 gallon bucket for house wash ?
Iâm assuming you are downstreaming your house wash mix. If so, I would put 100% SH in bucket and no water. This will give you around 1% out the gun if downstreaming. The % varies a little with machine size but rule of thumb for downstreaming is 10:1. When I downstream, which is almost always, I use straight SH and let the injector reduce it down for my house washing. If itâs not as strong as you want you can try lowering the RPMs of the PW machine and that tends to pull a bit more chems through the injector. Not sure why that is but it does.
so I definitely suck at math........ how would I change the calculation if my DSI is one gallon of detergent to 7 gallons of water?
The draw rate should actually be 62.5% with an open tip 4 gpm (1.6 - 1). Correct? Or do you add the 1 plus 1.6 and then divide? I never understood how people come up with a 10% draw rate in downstream injectors that are 10-1. 10% would actually be 9-1.
Is your formulas listed in the comments. Is that what you put in the cells?
The formulas are in the cells. Just send me an email and Iâll send you the spreadsheet. Click on the cells and the formula will show up in the description bar above the cells
maybe i'm just a math dummy but it has me going in circles. I have a 2.3 gpm machine and the 2-3 gallon a minute xjet. I have been batch mixing in a xjet pail and im using a 9:1 proportio er (red). Should i not be using a proportioner with it? I'm doing vinyl siding and trying to get a 1,5%-2.0% strength using the pool essentials that has 10% SH in it. Any brilliant math minds that want to help this math illiterate fireman would be much appreciated!! Thank you in advance for the help! Truly!
From a fellow firefighter brother: 2.3GPM is roughly a 0.77:1 ratio for the X-Jet without a proportioner (I'm eyeballing it when I charted out those X-Jet GPM/ratio values in the description). So if you're recreating the formulas from the video and don't want to use that red proportioner to run it straight from the pail, I think you just have to change cell A8 to be =(A5/B5)*C5*1.77 and then you can change the "SH % Needed" in cell C5 to be whatever you need.
Thank you for the great video! How can I get a FREE COPY of the Batch Mix Calculator for pressure washing? Thanks
Check in description
Good morning how do I go about getting this spread sheet.
See description
What percent is your SH? The actual percentage on the bottle. In the UK the strongest SH is 14%
12.5
Does this mean if your downstream injector is a 20:1, and you used 12.5% of straight SH with no additional water, the maximum percent out of the wand would be .625% ?
0.595% 12.5 divided by 21
@@Binliner thanks
how would i downstream for concrete cleaning?
Straight SH is going to be your best bet. Still wonât be very strong, like xjet or pump sprayer would be.
Hi,
I had a question on your formula chart. If I use the X-Jet with no tip (open) with a 8 gpm machine. How would it work? The X-Jet chart mention when using a 8.0 gpm it's (3 - 1) with no tip (open). Also using 10% or 12% (SH)
X-Jet chart
1 - 1 when using a 2 - 3 gpm
1.6 - 1 with a 4.0 gpm
2 - 1 with a 5.0 gpm
2.4 - 1 with 6.0 gpm
3 - 1 with 8.0 gpm
Right the ratios make it so confusing
@@jrob2kmusic333
Yes, it is.
Man, I hope he see this and can pulg in the numbers for the 8.0 gpm. I would like to see the ratio on his program.
@@michaelc7283 basically bro. The 2.7 gpm will split it in half. So if you have the 5 gallon bucket filled up with 10% with no water in the bucket and only sh . You will get 5% coming out of the tip. The more gpm the more the sh is diluted with water because theres more water flowing through. So we can treat it like the mix is getting cut in half but we have to add more sh to the mix than someone with a 2.7 gpm would.
@@michaelc7283 you dont need to know the percentage exactly just close enough to get the job done
@@michaelc7283 so for you just assume that whatevers in your 5 gallon container will get cut in half . So if you have straight 5 gallons of sh you mix will be 6.25 out the gun. And go from there
someone told me that I can't get jet more than 4.25%, my machine is 8gpm, I want to use xjet to get it 5 %, my local SH is 15%, they said if I put straight Sh with no water maximum I can get is 4.25%
Or do you send out a loaded spreadsheet.

Hi
Couyi have this too please?
Wdym by 10:1 ?
10 gallons of water to every 1 gallon of SH.
What would be the formula for my XJet since i have a 4 Gpm with 1.6:1 Ratio?
%SH divided by 2.6 to get mix %.
@@stevanhoffman4240 can you explain more? How would that solution explain how much SH and water goes into the tank?
@@samadafzalee1671 what kind of mix do you want and how big is the tank? You have to build a hot batch mix to get a lower diluted % to come out of the gun. For example if you are starting with 10% SH and want a 3% mix in a 5 gallon bucket you have to build an 8% mix so it dilutes down to 3%. To get to 8% from 10% you would mix 4 gallons of bleach to one gallon of water. Now you have 8%. It then goes through the x jet that has a 1.6:1 ratio. 8 divided by 2.6= 3.07.
@@stevanhoffman4240 that explains a lot. Thank you so much! What if I wanted a 4% or 2% mix come out the gun? How would that work, how do I do the math and calculate it
