Category: Repair

I added a regulator on the spot free rinse today. In the process I broke the main spot free access line? So I had to purchase a nipple extractor to remove the broken piece. Then I had to remove the piece. Then I also had to drive around to try and find a 1″ fitting. Which I wanted plastic and ended up with galvanized. I also had to drain the tank which is bad because the membrane in the system needs to be replace. So the process took forever. It was a lot of fun and I got my feet wet.

 

The regulator on spot free rinse cracked and water was coming out. It was great. It seemed like everyone uses spot free rinse when you are trying to repair it.

 

I fixed it when it was in use check it out.  But when I was finished I just ran a hose not using a regulator.  Greg, said this is bad and this could make the pump work to hard so I will try and purchase a regulator tomorrow.

Greg, also showed me how to turn hot water on for rinse and high pressure soap. By disconnecting the hot water cold water valve. Very easy when you understand how things work.

Greg, came out to my wash to explain what my problem was with my boiler. He also fixed my problem. The orange wire terminal was broken. So the boiler kept trying to light the pilot which explains the controller clicking.

My high pressure gun swivel leaked just on high pressure. Which is usually the other way around only on low pressure. But Greg was saying that this could have been from a car pulling the gun or running it over.

The red hose needed to be tightened and the black hose fitting was loose also.

I finally mounted my SandPipper pump only took one year.
