I've been holding to pull the trigger on that new toy, afraid it wouldn't work, but I finally just placed an order on a 24", thanks to your great youtube video. 👍 great job. Can't wait to try it. Thank you
Awesome product. I can see how the vacuum attached would be an asset on solid concrete areas such as around pools and patios. Very interesting video to watch.
Great demo video thanks for making this - ive seen this product. Quick question - what is the MINIMUM GPM of the pressure washer needed to make this work? (I have a 2.5 GPM - do I need a 4.0?)
From my own research, I can see that my pressure washer is blasting way stronger than the other ones that have demonstrated this attachment, meaning that most people are using lower powered machines and they are working. I really need to test this on my 2.8 gpm machine to know for sure, but I think it would work. It's a guess at this point though.
@@Something2LookAt If you do, please let us know, the reason I ask is because the lower the gpm the more accessible the tool is for "interior tile floor cleaning" (this expands the amount of business from a client) - thanks for responding 🙂
@@andrewleidner8142 keep in mind that more flow gives you faster rotation of you bar. There for you can move abit faster. Notice he has a slow pace , which is correct for the gpm he’s putting out. So lower gmp slower pace, higher gpm faster your pace. That’s the million dollar question, how fast do I need to move. Hope that helps ,more gmp = higher rotation.
I think mosmatic was the first to do this on their surface cleaners, This Eveage SC in the video is a chinese knock off and their support sucks, they dont speak english, some of the extra parts were wrong sizes.

Explaned how far or long the extraction hose to get waste water away from working area "pretty far from where you are working??? off into the gutter or storm sewer or ditch etc.??? So is it 10 feet, 20 feet or ????
We did the test, about 1/3 of the flow had to go through the venturi tube. This design has been that for more than 20 years, but the loss of water is a big problem.
@@samgan1728 Yes. There is a trade-off. It sucks everything up, keeps areas from flooding, and you don't have to rinse, but it does go a little slower. Totally worth it in my opinion.
@@hisnameisiam808 correct any water with chemicals SH or otherwise cannot leave the property, the house doesn’t usually matter because it will just be absorb by the grass so you do need to make sure the grass is wet before you start. Driveways and areas close to storm drains you need a way to block the water from going into it and reclaim it.
Hi, thanks for the video, checked the product website the product max psi is 4000. Your pressure washer is 4200 did you adjust the psi down and by how much. Thank you!
@@Something2LookAt most machines are labelled with psi ratings are max pressure, continuous psi is what's important. GPM is the same, handbooks or online pdf files will show both levels.
If you needed the spout to shoot to the right instead of the left could your flip the handle bars to the other side (trigger upside down) to operate it that direction?
Now you need to get a pump sprayer with a mix of 75% watee and 25% pool chlorine and coat the surfaces you cleaned which will get rid of the left over over lapping darker areas that the surface cleaner made
Typically you would pretreat with that same mix but obviously you would not want to do that and then spray your yard. However pretreating makes cleaning soo much easier
Worked great just a idea here but put like a one foot piece of pvc on the extractor side with a 45 angle on it to we’re it’s not shooting water 20 foot out it would hit the ground faster
Thanks for the review. Great info...I just purchased one of these for $200 on the local marketplace ..brand new in the box, Had to put it together. The guy bought it for his son to start a business. But the kid went to college instead.. LOL. Looking forward to using it.
i have this exact surface cleaner but i feel like my pressure is not where i want it to be , it needs more power and i have a 4400 psi 4.4 gpm , what could be the problem!!? help
Correct. And the extraction nozzle is utilizing a 3rd high pressure tip, so yes, the flow is divided by 3 instead of 2 like a regular flat surface cleaner. Which is why you need a really strong machine like the 4200 psi machine I'm using here.
Sure. I don't think you'd have to reduce the pressure. But if you're using it indoors, you might want to have it hooked up to the wet vac. It extracts pretty well without one, but the vac would insure against an accidental flood, like you see when I hit an uneven surface.
I love to buy one but is the surface cleaner (Eveage) reliable in terms of longevity? I hate to spend a lot of money on it and then it fails to spin, etc. after a few times. I've had my share of surface cleaner, i.e. Ryobi, Simpson and they all failed on me after a few times.
All I can say is that I've had a number of the cheaper ones you mentioned, as well as the high quality commercial ones and this one is built to the higher commercial standard. Of course, even the commercial ones will eventually wear out. It's just a bearing. Anyway, so far still no problems with this one and I've used it a lot.
Well, for me it would be. My pressure washer is having no problem running this one, so I would feel confident that it could run a 24. I also have a 24 already from another company that I've been using so I know it can do it.
@@Something2LookAt I emailed them to as if my pressure washer can run the 24 and I'm waiting to hear back. It's going to be a few months before I can use it here in Wisconsin.
@Random Acts of Video The rule of thumb is for each 1 gallon per minute equals 4 inches of surface cleaning. So if have a pressure washer that has 4gpm per minute, you would be at a 16 inch surface cleaner. You can go up to 20 inch surface cleaner and be fine as well by changing the flow tips.
This is fine if you are using straight water but if you have degreaser or SH, you definitely don't want to pump it into some areas- and it's illegal to put it in a drain. Should work for gray water capture though.
Good point to mention, and hopefully common sense. I usually don't use SH or chemicals and I did not in this video either. Sometimes I will put it on at the end actually, on the freshly cleaned concrete so it really gets into the pores.
I would use a flood vacuum so the vac never stops sucking and auto dumps to landscaping. IPC makes a great unit for this. Secondly, if you cannot afford that, get a 55-gallon drum vacuum that will allow you 3 times the capacity.
I saw that they have a new model that can be used for both cleaning floors and washing chassis. "EVEAGE Upgrade 2-in-1 Undercarriage & Pressure Washer Surface Cleaner..."
20v bilge pump with connected water hose run into nearby grass. Place in pooling water area. Turn on/off using a wireless remote as needed. Amazon $99 solution! Keep all of your surface cleaning units (gpm x psi) working at cleaning surface vs. partially robbing your gpm to operate the venturi effect water discharge.
That would be a good option. It is handy that it works with no pump or external vacuum, but it is taking a major pressure washer to do it. There is a 3rd spray tip inside of the venturi nozzle. To truly pump externally and maximum psi and gpm by eliminating the 3rd tip, you'd have to cap that 3rd tip inside the nozzle. And keep in mind that this setup is basically vacuuming the sand and dirt up off the cement whereas a bilge pump would just be removing deep water. By just using a really really strong pressure washer you can use it the way it's designed and it will slurp up all the water, dirt, and sand eliminating the need for even a rinse! I prefer to use it the way it comes.
The problem is he has to move so slowly. For someone running this machine as a business it's going to slow them down too much. The rule of thumb is maximum 4inches per gpm. So a 4 gpm PW would be able to efficiently run a 16inch surface cleaner with enough speed that it would be worth it financially. If you don't want to move at such a slow pace, increase gpm or reduce the size of the surface cleaner. I'd lose my mind if I had to run my surface cleaner that slow.
I have the same machine, and it works good around swimming pools and Koi ponds. Something that other surface cleaners will contaminate. It just an extra tool to have.
It should be good. It's a the top end of the market. Most home owners can't afford $600 just for a surface cleaners. There are much cheaper options that do a pretty good job. This is more for an individual who does this for a living.
@@8SecSleeper Oh, it's because I don't know. I received mine for free to review and I never looked for a price. Now that I'm looking, it's gone. Sorry but I don't know, and that's why.
It needs a swivel discharge like a snowblower...that way you would not have to always go in the same direction. Also, the cleaning while using the pipe is not nearly as good and without the pipe.
@@brian-ls4dm some do. Some let it dwell for 10 minutes and rinse. Some do other things. It really depends on what you want to do. Around me I don't think the gubment would like it very much if I just left it but it goes inert very rapidly from what I've heard. I've also noticed that it rusts things out quicker(like deck screws even after rising. Needed to rinse more I guess 😮💨😬) when I just leave it so you can't leave it on anything that will oxidize.
I know, right? And I was extremely skeptical about it too before I used it. I showed it in detail. It actually works and it's a major advancement. That's all I can do. Glad to have it myself!
How well will this product hold up for commercial use? I see the bearings are sealed so I am kind of concerned about long term longevity.
23:45 ridgid has an attachment for there shop vac that can connect a small pump to a garden hose and allows you to pump the water out and away.
I saw that. And Craftsman has one of those too I think. It would have it's purpose I'm sure.

Great idea as you are not allowed to have any water from washing go down into storm water where I live. You can however discharge it onto the lawn.
This is law at the federal level so not just were you live and so many people have no idea until the homeowner gets a hefty fine
Just water? Or chemicals?

@@Something2LookAt most machines are labelled with psi ratings are max pressure, continuous psi is what's important. GPM is the same, handbooks or online pdf files will show both levels.
Looks awesome!!!!! But instead of one hose to manage now you have 2. Is there a way to block it off when you don't need it
Well, the hose is held on by a hose clamp, so you could just clamp the right size PVC cap to it.
@Something 2LookAt if the surface has SH on it, is it diluted enough 🤔 to just blow into the grass???
Add a ball valve between the swivel and the venturi for that branch line.
It would also increase pressure/flow so you'd need to switch tips as well.
That is a great idea for pressure washing jobs thanks for doing a video on this piece of equipment
You bet
@@Something2LookAt cool 👍😎
If you needed the spout to shoot to the right instead of the left could your flip the handle bars to the other side (trigger upside down) to operate it that direction?
Hmm, now that's a very good question. I'll have to get back to you on that, but it does seems like that would work. Great idea!
Hi whats that white adaptor you use? surface cleaner hose to the shop vac?
Oh that's just a creation we made out of spare PVC to make an adapter to fit the wet vac.
Now you need to get a pump sprayer with a mix of 75% watee and 25% pool chlorine and coat the surfaces you cleaned which will get rid of the left over over lapping darker areas that the surface cleaner made
Typically you would pretreat with that same mix but obviously you would not want to do that and then spray your yard. However pretreating makes cleaning soo much easier
When water is absorbed, does the surface cleaner sort of stick to the ground a bit? Suction wise?
Yes, you can feel a little bit of that. Which is why I'm glad it has wheels.

That should be working. You have more power pressure than I do.
Surly you won't get full pressure to the surface cleaner if it is using pressure for the out pipe
Correct. And the extraction nozzle is utilizing a 3rd high pressure tip, so yes, the flow is divided by 3 instead of 2 like a regular flat surface cleaner. Which is why you need a really strong machine like the 4200 psi machine I'm using here.
How much volume and psi are you losing for the systems Venturi effect to work?
I'm using 4200 psi and 4.0 gpm
This is a Novel price, kind of idea😮 absolutely brilliant
How does it work when you have a lot of moss on paving stones?
No that's not going to work. I think that moss will clog up the nozzle.
