Hi Doug a few Siamese questions firstly do you still recommend Siamesing because I’ve heard that it is hard on your machines. Secondly I have a vrt3 unloader is this a pressure trap unloader or will I need something different if so please recommend. Thirdly can I down stream while being Siamesed, I want two 5.5 gpm machines so would I put a 5 gpm down stream injector on each side of the top of the T on the Siamese hose or one 10 gpm injector at the bottom of the T where the Siamese kit will hook into the single hose your using. Fourthly me wanting two 5.5 machines will mean I’ll have 11 gpm which is a weird number so I usually see down stream injectors, guns,surface cleaners, nozzle tips ,unloaders, etc in either 10gpm or 12 gpm sizes, will I be ok with going with either one of these sizes? I have a 10.5 gun and unloader will this cause problems? Or would even just 10gpm accessories suffice or will I need to find 12gpm accessories. Thanks so much it means the world to me if you get the chance to help.
Yes, I still recommend it and do it all the time with no issues on my machines. Pressure trap unloader is the only type of unloader you can use to Siamese. I never use Siamese for down streaming, only for rinsing and surface cleaning. I would upgrade to 12GPM accessories so you can get full flow. You might be ok with 10GPM, but you just have to try and see.
@@PressureCleaningSch thanks for responding, how will I know if my vrt3 unloader is a pressure trap unloader? Online it just says that unloaders can either be adjusted by pressure or flow but never specified which one mine does. Would I be ok trying to down stream with 11gpm? Would having only a 10gpm gun cause strain on my pump or only on the gun itself, what would happen if I used higher gpm nozzle tips with a lower gpm machine and vice versa
@@PressureCleaningSch that’s why I was wondering if using two 5-6gpm injectors on each side of the top of the Siamese kit would keep the chem ratio right or even one 10-12 gpm injector on the bottom end of the Siamese kit? Using a 10gpm gun with 11 gpm machine will only hurt the gun and not the pump if I have a bypass right.
