    What machine are you using, and hose size. I have the predator 4.2gpm. It has what I think is the down stream injector built in with the option to relocate it up stream. Well I took the original 50ft hose off and put on a new 100 ft yamatic hose. Well not knowing the new hose is small and causing my injector not to work. Soon as I put the original hose back on it starts picking up again. Are you using the downstream port that’s factory built in?

    Hi, if I want to clean the roof with stronger mix with 3-5 % but as I know that was unable to do with downstream is it? As maximum is 1/10 which make is 1.5% if my sh is 15%, instead of xjet any other way? I don’t have extra money to invest soft wash now, xjet bucket is risky to carry to roof while climbing.
