UPDATE:1 year and still cranks within the first 2-3 pulls. Probably will buy another when this one finally does bite the dust ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX . No issues at all. Very happy with it.UPDATE: After 6 months of use and over 70 uses I would still highly recommend this pressure washer. It does vibrate a decent amount but never had it “walk” like others have mentioned. No oil leaks, still seems to run like the day I bought it. Still cranks within 2-3 pulls every time. Very happy with my purchase!Have used it about a dozen times now. Plenty of power, cranks up on 1-2 pulls every time. My only complaint would be I wish it was a little taller to make it easier to walk with it (hits my ankles a lot) and that the two hose connections were a little further apart but it hasn’t caused me any issues. Seems to run a good 1-1/2-2 hrs on a full tank, overall a well built machine and definitely worth the money in my opinion.
I want to do both. I am excited about this business . I am retired mechanic/shop owner. Looking for a job so I thought this might be a good fit for me. I see a gold mine waiting to happen. I have been watching videos to try and get educated. There's about thirty homes in my neighborhood that need service, especially roof wash. One concern I have is Liability When you do a roof maybe some chemicals will drip down the side of the house and streak it?.
start at the roof and wash down, also a god opportunity to upsale to a full wash in my opinion
Nice efficient design, and the solar panel was the WOW factor.
+SH QA 👊🏻👍🏻
I just built that metering setup by watching your other video. Thank you so much. Im having issues though as i did first jobs yesterday. Wasnt quite sure where to have dials set for vinyl siding. Went 5 on water and 1 on SH. I suck at math and percentages and all that. Also another issue i had was when i went to rinse i turned off the SH and sprayed house for like what seemed forever. Still suds. Sprayed on hand and still felt like SH coming out. Bad valve maybe? I ended up hooking up water how to gun to rinse. Houses turned out great but Metering system had opposite effect when it came to saving time.
I bought a used 17' uhaul box truck that I'll be customizing into a washing and hedge trimming business. I'm installing an awning door similar to a food trucks on the passenger side where my softwashing, pressure washing and water hose reels will be. Tanks, softwash setup and pressure will obviously be inside and about one third of the front of the truck, I'm installing a door, where that section will be for my hedge trimming equipment and where I'll throw my bags of clippings.
That sounds awesome! Would love to see it when you are done with it! Good Luck!
@@AllAboutPressureWashing It'll probably take me all fall and winter, but I'm not in a rush. I'm northwest of Atlanta.
How did you pick hedge clipping to go with soft washing ? I did once see a sign where a guy would do lawnmower repair & he'd do your taxes ...
@@ronjclm8590 Because it's a service that improves the look of the house, along with a clean house. Many people who are selling their homes want everything perfect. It also generates more income.
Can you please make a specific video on your hose connections from your batch mixer to your hose reel to your hose. If you could explain the sizes, barbed fittings and clamps for everything that would be awesome.
I agree
I have the Northern tool 5.5pgm 12v and 7gpm they have been going strong now for 8 months. You have to rinse them out with fresh water after each use si they last longer. Also I don't no why alot of people use 1/2 hose on 5.5gpm or bigger 12v pumps. U are holding back to water volume go with 5/8 hose way better!
Nice- thanks for sharing and rinsing is the most important thing to do in order to maximize the life of your pump. Where are you located?
@@AllAboutPressureWashing I'm in Illinois. Getting cold here and super windy lately but I'm still getting jobs
+D Buk I bet it is and good to hear the jobs are still coming in
What kind of 5/8 hose do you use? Like the hose that goes from tank and chem tank to proportioner? Or the water hose is 5/8?
@@jamespope6940 the draw hoses are just kinds heavy clear 5/8 hoses but the one from pump to gun is 5/8 flexible garden hose.
GREAT VIDEO BRO
I just got my first softwash system it’s a gas powered COMET P40 and I love it ,best to start with a top tier system and spend it once right 👍 I appreciate the breakdown ,I’m building out smaller 12 volt systems for trucks for new hires going forward and easy to train on and use and for big jobs well pull out our 2 big trailers units we got ready to roll #washon bro
+Littles Pressure Washing that's awesome - good luck
I’m so confused on what part hooks up to what, and what all these parts are for and what they do. So much piping coming from here going to there. And I didn’t know you needed soap to softwash. I thought it was just SH being used. And what all the little parts are. I need like a plumbing and wiring diagram for everything. And explained how it all works and what to get and how to put it all together
Nice information thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
As far as mixing/metering best trick I ever learned wether your down streaming a house using no more thane 1.5 % SH or roof Washing using no more than 6.5% SH there is a very easy way to do it with hardly no hassle and only involves using one tank.
The trick is take a 100 to 150 gallon tank fill between 60 - 65% SH add your surfactant and fill tbe rest with water. This is the perfect mix wether your roof washing or down streaming for house washing all you have to do is drop you down stream injector stick in it thats connected to your power washer and your ready hogwash houses at a perfect mix that won't destroy vegetation ..if your Soft washing roofs you drop your soft wash system stick in this mix and it gives you between 6 to 6.5% SH perfect for roof washing...And that is it...i have two tanks. A 250 gallon for my water and 8gpm surface cleaning and a 100 gallon for my mix that I just explain does everything from roof cleaning to down streaming. Hope that helps some of you who are confused by all the tanks and gadgets and would just like to make life simple.
+Creole Cajun that is a great explanation and spot on.
This is exactly the information I needed this evening! Thanks for your knowledge!
Just starting out, I want a system that doesn't fully tie up my truck bed. Something more portable that I can take in and out easy. Was wondering about starting off with a portable 4gpm pressure washer and a seperate 12v soft wash system that I could unload easily. And tips or advice man??
Thanks for the advice for a simple softwash set up build. Don't forget to let all of the mix be pushed out of your hose before rinsing with plain water
Thank you for the detailed explanation of the plumbing aspect. One question, why do some builds have all the downstream injector stuff? I don't quite understand it. I understand the softwash set up for houses and fences? and then using the pressure washer for concrete. Just get confused when I see the builds with both of those and a bunch of downstream injectors and other tanks besides the normal 3.

Thanks for all your help! I can't figure out what size hose to use to plumb up to my proportioner. I have a 5.5 GPM pump and proportioner like in the video. What size hose do you use for each input and output from the proportioner and pump?
Very well done man! Genius with the solar panel. Next comes the couch and TV right?! 😂 thanks for walking us through. I’ve been wondering on these trailers. I trust your videos over the others. Always so well explained.
Just started a power wash business, your videos are very helpful so thank you. Im going to start building my soft wash system.
Yoooo I’m just looking into starting, any advice or recommendations would be MUCH appreciated!! and congrats on your new business!
can you use the same equiptment for both?
I like the trailer build. I’ve got to build me one. I’ve been using a x-jet since I’ve started soft washing.
Do you have a parts list?
Not bad bud.
I only see a few things that you could do to improve. I really like the Solar Charging. I will incorporate that into my rig. I try to keep everything as simple and small as possible. The Solar was an Eye Opener.
Thanks for watching, Please subscribe too! What would you do to improve? I always want to learn new things!
@@AllAboutPressureWashing The bypass on the pressure washer needs to go back to the buffer tank so that you can keep cooler water flowing through your pw pump when your finger is off of the trigger.
@@AllAboutPressureWashing I would try to find a spot to mount the solar panel longer term so it charges all day.
You should get some wire loom to clean up the wires inside of the box. Looks good though, I have a similar set up. How much was the 300ft of ag hose, did you build the proportioner?
+CJ wire loom would clean it up for sure. I didBuild a proportioner, there’s a video I made that is on the channel as well. It has a link in the description for all of the parts needed.
I’d have to dig up the price on the at hose.
Do you guys use accumulator tanks on your soft wash systems???? Mine came with wanna but thinking about getting rid of it and running the pump right into my hose reel
We don’t
So this might be a dumb question, but if i used 2 of those solar panel trickle chargers would it charge might battery twice as fast?
Awesome video, just to clear some things up since I’m new to this and I am looking into starting, one tank you keep water in and the other bleach? Is it fine to keep bleach in the tank for some time? Thank you!!!
Bleach will degrade over time - but should last several weeks. Watch my video on mixing chemicals too.
Can you please explain the you make and attach the drop sticks that go inside your tanks? Thank you
It is just a PVC pipe that the poly tube goes through, at the end there is a poly propylene fitting and a stainless hose clamp.
I like the ideal of the proportioner. Can you go into detail of how that works? How to custom the ratios of bleach and water etc? thanks
This is good, thanks for the ideas.
+Doc Steven thanks Doc
Good stuff! I just built my 12 volt soft wash system. Are the cam lock fittings 1/2" or 3/4"? I cannot find 1/2" anywhere. Thanks
Grip's Clips thanks for the feedback. These are 1/2” cam locks and they are tough to find. I got mine at a lock supply house - but if you type in 1/2” camlock on amazon you should find what you are looking for.
I'd like to know the dimensions of the trailer the best place for me to find equipment for soft washing i want to learn
@southeastsoftwash has the best equipment in the soft washing industry
nice setup. thanks for sharing!
+MrFuzzyscreen you got it! Thanks for watching
Thanks for explaining your setup, I am curious though. You have one water tank and one bleach tank, aside from filling the bleach tank one gallon at a time are you required to have a hazardous chemical sign / license on your trailer or truck...
+Red Noize no
@@AllAboutPressureWashing what type of soap do you recommend to be mixed...
That is really And personal preference, we really like southern slang from Southeast Softwash in Roanoke Alabama. Smells good, does an outstanding job with cling.

+All Things New Pressure Washing, LLC thx
I got a question I can't find the answer. I got a used ar 45 I wana soft wash with it but a expensive proportioner valves aren't in the budget if I build one out of ball valves how do I test the sh strengths coming out ao I know how to adjust the valves. To get a certain %
Ball valves don't meter

This is a nice system, good stuff
How many medium sized houses can you do on 1 charge on that size battery? Im thinking full house, sidings & roof.
Anybody have a idea?
What do you do when it comes to rinsing off the chemical? Do you use water from the truck or the hose from the customers spigot?
Hey man quick question, what is the soap for? A majority of the time aren't you spraying 50/50 SH and Water onto the siding, roof and driveways? Just really want to know why buy soap. Thank you
+Alex Chwedczuk We do not use any soap for house washing or concrete cleaning. The only time that we use a surfactant is on very steep roofs Because it helps the SH and water solution cling to the shingles longer, allowing less runoff.
There’s so much!! That’s overwhelming hahah
+Cameron McNulty 👊🏻
Ive looked at both videos and cant find the metering ratios
Thank you
Thats a nice budget
Thanks for the comment - enjoy and subscribe!
What type & size of cam lock fittings you use?
+Lorenzo Marin Those are half-inch camlock’s
Just built my soft wash setup. Do you start by opening one valve at a time to get it primed? If so, when you go to turn the bleach dial down after getting it primed, how do you know when it’s at that lower bleach concentration so that I’m not running 50/50 mix? For example, if I start the bleach valve open at 5 to get it primed, but need the dial on 2, how do I know when it’s ready to use so I’m not running with 6% bleach?
I'm soo confused on the parts list to build this setup because I feel like I didn't see half those parts on the video so I'm curious are those extra things you suggest over what is in the video or is all needed in the list to make this work? 🤔 I'm sorry I am starting out fresh to the whole soft wash and pressure cleaning and I am trying to do this build in the video.

Love this.
I purchased a metering valve just like that hooked it up but the water side turned all the way on and it’s not sucking water from a 5 gallon bucket. It’s not pump it’s working fine. You have any idea what else could the problem be. I appreciate the feedback
+Have Faith Pressure Washing Services,LLC turn all the other valves to off and leave water on and try. It might also not be primed, maybe use a garden hose and force water through your water hose while it’s in the bucket and see if that helps

budget to me is a 4gpm with a couple reels in the back of my pup truck with a 5 gallon jug for SH lol :)
Great video!
+Georgi Elena thank you for watching
so when i put my setting on 1 for SH and 5 for water that give me about a 1.5-1.75 percentage u can wash houses with right?
It depends on what percentage of SH you were using. If you have 10% SH in a tank and your water is on 100% and your chemical is on 100%, that's a 5% mix. So you would adjust your water accordingly.

How are the solar panels working out on the charging?
Dean Weingarth just like a trickle charger. We have not had to charge the battery yet.
Have you had good luck with a 7GPM pump and 1/2" hose? I have 250' of 1/2 hose and my 7GPM didn't last long at all! Running a 5.5GPM now, but noticeably not as much distance or pressure.
Hey Dave, we have had better luck with this 12v 7GPM unit then any other in the past. We have used pumps from Delevan in the past with very little luck. The Everflo EF7000-BOX 7.0 GPM 12V Diaphragm Pump comes standard with 1/2 connections and we run them quite a bit. Make sure to subscribe to the channel!
Great videos! Any reason why you are running 3/8” hoses on your softwash system? That pump has 1/2” ports and I currently have 1/2” hose on my system. Just curious.

Really, it's over kill? Nice that you can have some extra storage space.
Can the 36 inch box hold the battery and pump only? Then install the proportion unit on the outside?
It’s overkill for the pump and switch, it’s nice for the storage. The one I bought was from Lowe’s and was either on special or mis priced because I can’t find one like it
it is true that a 3/8 hose gives you more water flow and distancie . than a 1/2 on this system amigo
+Jose Gutierrez you will burn up your pump if you use a small diameter hose.
@@AllAboutPressureWashing i m sorry mike i meant 5/8 hose on a 7 gpm pump what do you think ? Thank you for you help

Whats your opinion on Northstar soft wash system?
+Gerald Arteaga I have never used one so I can’t really give my opinion.
I was looking at the proportioner settings link, and from what I understand using Bleach with 10% SH and a 1:3 ratio would be 2.5% pure SH but how would the surfactants affect those numbers I see that there is a proportioner for the surfactant, so what setting would it be on?
Hey man love the work you do and the videos you post. But I was wondering can I use the general pump hose reels for soft wash? Or will the manifold rust out from the chemicals?
