7 GPM START ROOF CLEANING: EVERFLO 200' 5/8" RED FLEX TECH RT
7 GPM 60 psi Everflo start roof cleaning kit.
200' 5/8" red flex tech rt hose with 1/2" crimped stainless steel MPT ends (no hose clamps or Teflon tape).
12' Polywire non-collapsible suction hose with PVC slotted filter.
Sch 80 PVC ball valve applicator with stainless steel socket.
Jrod with 4 nozzles chosen for chemical application and long pump life.
2 spare general pump stainless steel sockets.
We strongly recommend that you add the 5-gallon bucket of slo mo to your purchase. Using 4-8 ounces per 100 gallons of recipe will save you money. We offer the slo mo in 5-gallon buckets and larger containers.
If you prefer this kit in yellow or blue, add a note in checkout. There is no difference between these hoses except for the color.
All 12-volt pumps use more than twice the chemical, make you work twice as slow and offer a very short life span. We recommend that you research the air diaphragm pump system before pulling the trigger on this kit. We sell more chemical and pumps when you purchase these systems.
You use a nozzle that has a very large orifice, does not shoot as far as the 1/2" All-Flo (20-30' compared to 40-60') and has a lifespan of 2 days to 9 months.
Do not use Teflon tape on this pump. No warranty on this pump. 8 gauge wire must be used. No alligator clips used with this pump. Use a minimum 875 CCA deep cycle marine battery.
Improve your efficiency by adding a hose reel to this build. The titan 4318s, 4818s, 5518, or 4318es are perfect choices. Add the 2354 brass street 45 to eliminate the kink at the outlet of the reel. You will need a jump hose. Choose a hose of matching color and hose id and add the number of feet to the cart. Be sure to add two hose ends. Stainless steel hose ends are the most durable. I prefer to use the PVC crimp at the pump and the stainless crimp at the hose reel swivel.
We at pressurewasherproducts.com prefer to offer our customers a hose assembly that will not require maintenance as when hose clamps are used with hose barbs. Hose clamps loosen over time, rust and can become sharp. Because the inlet port of the pump is 1/2", the general rule of pump plumbing indicates that the inner diameter of the supply line should be twice the inner diameter of the port and will require a minimum of a 1" id hose. The 1" suction line should not collapse and should remain somewhat rigid but allow flexibility under pulsation. Never use garden hose fittings on the suction side of any pump as they allow air to siphon into your suction side of the pump.
Rex, our pump guru, invented the design of our PVC slotted chemical tank filter. The filter is composed entirely of PVC and will not rust or decompose or shatter into small pieces after constant submersion into a pressure washer's chemical tank or roof wash mix. The filter made be assembled to fit exactly into the bottom of a 5-gallon bucket, various drum sizes and tanks. It is assembled using PVC cleaner, a deburred, and clear PVC cement. To prevent the filter from rising to the top of the tank, a length of PVC pipe can be used as a sleeve to slip over the connecting suction hose. The inner diameter of the PVC pipe should be slightly wider than the outside diameter of the suction hose. You may use a clean piece of 1 1/4" or 1 1/2" id PVC scrap pipe to slip over the hose before it is connected to the 12-volt pump.
To figure out how long to cut the pipe, place the suction hose assembly with the uncut PVC pipe sleeve into your main chemical tank or drum and allow the filter to rest horizontally on the bottom. Mark and cut the sleeve so that it is just a bit higher than the opening of the tank. Use a heat gun to 'bell' the top end of the sleeve and a grinder or drum sander to soften the edges of the sleeve. If a tank filter (tf-5) is assembled to the width of a 5 gallon bucket, the user can remove the filter from the larger tank and place it in a bucket of degreaser to apply to a driveway or drive through, apply a diluted mix to a house or building wash or allow the operator to run 5 gallons of fresh water through the system to rinse all of the fittings and components of the soft wash chemical application system. Semi-permanent fittings on the low-pressure side of a system attaching PVC to PVC should be assembled using non-drying liquid Teflon or 'pipe dope'.
Teflon tape should never be used. Teflon tape will dislodge, find its way into interrupting the moving components of a pump. We have answered technical calls in the middle of the night in which the only problem found was a piece of Teflon tape lodged next to diaphragm disallowing a seal, a valve to hang up by a little piece of white mystery or a clogged nozzle at your gun or in your surface cleaner spray bar tip.
