Love your videos Doug. You’re so thorough at not only explaining but the demos are great. Thank you!

[@PressureCleaningSch]

Thank you. I’m glad they help.

[@droneinnovation3742]

Can you explain how a nozzle tip will automatically cut the flow of surfactant?

[@PressureCleaningSch]

It restores the pressure back that using the low pressure nozzle lowered it. So the injector won’t draw.

[@cashandraven2369]

You gotta get started somewhere. I got laughed at for bringing a little electric 1.7gpm to clean decks out on the lake, but you know what? I developed my base. Sure it took forever, but I used that money to buy better equipment. Use what you have, and get what you can, everyone's situation is different as is their market. Do what works for YOU, and don't worry about the finger pointers.

[@PressureCleaningSch]

Well said. Love it.

[@terencewashington3409]

Thanks for all the info getting started next year just doing my research I'm in Colorado!!

Very welcome.

Great video !!

You’re only a chuck in a truck if you are not doing the best you can with what you have. I found in the beginning that once customers see the integrity in you they pass your name on and you then will be able to invest in more efficient equipment. Just don’t give up

[@PressureCleaningSch]

Well said Troy.

I’m a lawn guy in a truck , but about to start pressure washing out of it also .hose reels ,lawn mower, trimmer racks ,2.5gpm and BE 16in cleaner. Truck going to look nice 😊

[@Hamrickshighpressuresolutions]

Hey Doug can you hook that machine up to a water tote

[@PressureCleaningSch]

It’s a direct drive so it’s not going to pull water. You’d have to force feed it from the water supply with a garden hose.

[@EricPotratzM]

Hey Doug, have you seen a backpack tank that is compatible with the x-jet system?

[@alanphillips1344]

Just starting out myself. I was talking to a friend of mine, and he went out and bought me a pressure cleaner so I could start my business. It is a harbor freight 4200 psi, 4 GPM. This is a direct Drive unit and I was wondering, am I going to be able to draw water from a buffer tank? I know I should have a better pressure cleaner, but he wanted invested this money for me and I would like to try to use this. Any help would be greatly appreciated

[@PressureCleaningSch]

Direct drive usually will not pull water from a tank.

@@PressureCleaningSch thanks! Love your videos, I’ve learned a lot from you.

[@vampirehunter2698]

I would like to start this kind of business but people are telling me that it is overcrowded. The start-up on this business is not as cheap as everyone thinks. Can't I just buy a decent van and get magnetic signs for both sides to advertise. Then buy a $1200 power washer with a $150 surface cleaner, gloves boots, and shirts with some chemicals to start.

[@PressureCleaningSch]

You sure can depending on the quality of the pressure washer

[@vampirehunter2698]

@@PressureCleaningSch I would invest in a $1200 unit at Lowe’s I would buy decent surface cleaner and what I need to use a telescopic water brush if you ever need to use that also if you use chemical do you have to clean the windows afterwards of the house that you’re cleaning the siding?

[@vampirehunter2698]

@@PressureCleaningSch Most likely the 4400 psi type with a Honda Motor at Loews. Also a surface cleaner and telescopic long brush. The van is the biggest investment. Do I have to rig the truck a certain way to hold the pressure washer? Please answer, thanks.

[@rossrocha7122]

I'm in the process of starting a washing business. Does the sh going through the pump mess it up i have herd that it does

[@PressureCleaningSch]

On a pressure washer? Yes it will. We don’t run the SH through the pump.

[@rossrocha7122]

@@PressureCleaningSch okay. So then the down stream set up that connects to the pressure washer does not let the chemicals in to the pump

[@PressureCleaningSch]

@@rossrocha7122 that’s correct. It’s installed on the down side of the pump, hence the name downstream. If Chem’s go through the pump it’s called upstreaming.

[@rossrocha7122]

@@PressureCleaningSch ok cool. I'm learning okay.

[@rossrocha7122]

I was looking at your website and thinking of buying from you. Can i still pay monthly for the pressure washer. If i come to your store and pick it up. To safe me the shipping cost

[@Assman45ACP69]

Hey doug, do you know of any washers that would fit in the trunk of a sedan? I've only got my parent's car for right now.

[@PressureCleaningSch]

No off hand, plus getting all the other stuff inside you'd need. That'd be tough.

[@Assman45ACP69]

@@PressureCleaningSch Yeah, at least untill I can afford a truck.

[@870housewashpro9]

Thanks Mr. Doug!!! You always have great videos. I have one question and I know you can help. Why does my batch mix tank backfill with fresh water when I’m down streaming??? Please help lol

[@PressureCleaningSch]

Sounds like the injector may be reversed. Is the arrow on the injector pointing towards the gun?

[@870housewashpro9]

@@PressureCleaningSch the arrow is going the correct way.

[@PressureCleaningSch]

@@870housewashpro9 The injector itself could be bad you might try another one

Would replacing your 4gpm PW with a 2.5gpm 3300psi PW, and also buy a 10gpm 24v pump for softwash do the job as a budget business startup?

[@PressureCleaningSch]

No. stick w the 4GPM over the 2.5.

[@saveraindustries8124]

Great time to start this business IMO. Go to all the stores and ask to remove all the COVID-19 tape on the floor for "social distancing".
