My go-to place when I need help. The OG Doug Rucker, you gotta love this guy!
Thank you sir
Nice!
Thanks!
Hey Doug a great video as usual, I had a question hope you can help out - For DownStream injector bypass why to create such an elaborate setup will it not be more efficient if on a regular downstream injector put a ball valve on the downward pipe/hose which pulls the chemical/soap mix... and once that ball valve is shut there is no air intake issue either this simple 1 piece ball valve can also help regulate amount of chemical you need to mix with the water spray ??
Still will lose pressure and flow. There are adjustable injectors you can do the same thing without having the ball valve.
I was going to ask the same thing. I can’t see why the need for such an elaborate system when a simple on/off valve will shut off the intake. He says you will still lose pressure, but I cannot see how. It’s almost like plugging or capping the injector line or even not having one at all.
So after a little more research, I now understand what Doug is saying. If you have a 4gpm machine and the injector is 2gpm, the internal orifice of said injector will restrict the machines maximum flow. The bypass offered a no restricted path for the water to flow and return to maximum flow.
@@cfuzzkennedy Yes that is what I assumed by Doug's statement "still will loose pressure and flow", but my question was in a setup with same orifice sizes, so the doubt and to better understand the physics I checked out other YT experts on pressure washing and all of them had similar concerns of a pressure drop if there is no bypass and then I myself setup a rig to check pressure loss and I did find a noticeable pressure (but not too much) drop if there is no bypass. btw I checked with both orifice sizes same
Hey Doug, when you put your SH in the 5 gallon bucket are you mixing it with water? Or are you just using your bypass with straight SH.
I use Straight SH
Would this be a good back up on a 10 gpm machine when your running a dedicated soft wash system?
Yes, absolutely. But won’t get as strong a mix as the dedicated pump
Does your plug out version limit corrosion on plug or doesn't it matter ?. I have some brass plugs I use and they tend to collect corrosion. I use a brass brush to clean them off. I know I should have all stainless.
I use SS plugs. But I use both brass and SS couplers and never noticed a huge difference on either lasting longer due to corrosion.
@@PressureCleaningSch okay, I was sorta thinking that way. Thank you.
Hey Doug, is a 100 gallon water tank too small for a 10 gpm unit? The water pressure in my area is pretty good with 5 gpm on the low end and 10 gpm on the high end. I mainly do residential jobs and would like to have between 100-150 gallon tank if possible.
Should be fine unless you wide open for an extended period. I’ve always 100 gallon on my 8gpm w no issues unless there was a supply issue
Hey Doug, will the bypass work and siphon with a 4gpm 4200 psi GX390 direct drive ? Thank you
Yes it should work fine
@PressureCleaningSch Thank you will place an order for an RTU
Dont know why, but when I connect 200 feet of hose, it's not pulling any SH from the bucket ??? Any suggestions
What injector?. Machine?

@@PressureCleaningSch?
@@pressureandsoftwash21 hmmm very odd it won’t pull. It definitely should. Try it with an open valve or nothing on the end of your hose just to see if it will pull.
Good for you for looking out for the little man trying to make a living- I’m assuming I can buy online from you so you have a new customer
Yes sir. You can order here. And thank you. www.dougruckerstore.com
