Soft Wash Metering System with Reel Stand

Key Features:

Precision Metering Valves: This system features three metering valves for water, sodium hypochlorite (bleach), and detergent/surfactant. These valves allow simultaneous drawing of bleach and surfactant into your soft washing solution, ensuring optimal mixing and application.

Convenient On-Board Mixing: Mix surfactants directly at the control panel without the need for manual measuring or mixing in a separate tank. This innovative feature allows for on-the-fly adjustments of mix ratios depending on the surface being cleaned, enhancing efficiency and accuracy.

Dual 12V 90 PSI Pumps: The system is powered by two robust 12V, 90 PSI pumps combined these pumps supply 7 gallon per minute flow rate at 60psi and 4 gpm at 90 psi, they provide an exceptional flow, perfect for all your soft washing requirements. 

Plus ... The dual pump setup ensures that even if one pump fails, you still have sufficient flow and pressure to complete the job. Dual pumps combined reel stand can send the blend and spray the chemical mix  at 5 gpm through the 200ft of 1/2" hose, spraying gun, and tip.

This reel stand is used as part of a softwash spraying system and would need to be plumbed to the customer provided tanks

Includes:
  • Aluminum Reel Stand - 24in wide 19in Tall and 18in deep.
  • Pump Specifications: Two 12V, 90 PSI, 5.3 GPM (Open Flow)
  • ProTool Metering Valves: Three, for precise chemical mixing, typically Water, SH and Surfactant
  • 3/4in Inlet barbs for Water and  SH, 3/8 inlet barb for Surfactant, 3/4in outlet barb to pumps
  • PP Manifold Block, Stainless Steel Barbs.
  • 12ft of 3/4in Suction Line 
  • Aluminum Reel with SS manifold and Swivel
  • 200ft of 1/2in ProTool Blue Braid Spraying Hose

Provides plenty of flow and proportional blending of the chemicals for gar powered diaphragm pumps tested at > 9 GPM+ flow . There is an 3/4in additional port in the manifold for use with a Pumps that requires a regulator return line.  This ships with the port plugged with a 3/4in plug.

  • ProTool Metering valves provide full control over water, sodium hypochlorite (SH), and surfactant ratios for precise customization, proportioning  of soft wash mixtures

Mixing Setup - Metering Initial Setup

There is no exact science to where the valves are going to be set for your spraying needs. This will get you close to start and you will need to tune to your needs. The goal is to use as little sH and Surfactant as possible and still get a fast complete and well spread out spray that sticks to the surface from the wand.

The ratio is based upon the difference of the flow allowed by each of the metering valves, Water, SH Sodium Hypochlorite
the strength of the SH (12.5%, 10% Pool Bleach and 6% Retail Store Bleach in a bottle)

Adjust the Surfactant to use as little as possible,
but still see the sudsing action and mix spreading action on the sprayed surface

When using 12.5% Sodium Hypochlorite
For a 6% hot SH Mix, for very bad roof mold
  • The Water Valve is set to 10
  • The Bleach Valve is set to 10
  • The Surfactant is set t0 1 to 2

When Targeting a 3% sH mix using 12.5%
The settings will be similar to this:
  • The Water Valve is set to 10
  • The Bleach Valve is set to 4
  • The Surfactant is set t0 1 to 2
When targeting siding, fences, decks and other building surfaces a 1% to 2% mix is appropriate
Start with these settings to Target a 1.5% mix
  • The Water Valve is set to 10
  • The Bleach Valve is set to 2
  • The Surfactant is set t0 1 to 2
Note: These settings are not exact but a good starting point.
As the SH ages it will lose potency, so older bleach, pool bleach that will cause you toi increase the SH numbers

Note on Using store bought bleach

6% Retail Bleach or stale 12.5% SH or Stale 10% Pool Bleach where the contents have degraded to less potency.

If you are at 10 on the bleach and 10 on the water and feel you need a stronger mix review below

This can easily happen with store bought beach that was on the shelf for 6 months...

Turn the water down from 10 to 6 and see how the strength looks when spraying. Are you getting the browning action you wated...
You can continue to turn the Water down until you get a good browning and clean rinse.

Watch the mix spread out on the surface
if the mold is browning nicely (dying) and is rinsing clean
you want to use just enough to get a good clean, but not waste the SH.
So with good browning and a clean rinse you have enough SH in the mix,
You can adjust the SH down until the browning is slower than you would
like and then adjust back up for a good browning action.

Proposition 65 requires businesses to provide warnings to Californians about significant exposures to chemicals that cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.  These chemicals can be in the products that Californians purchase, in their homes or workplaces, or that are released into the environment. By requiring that this information be provided, Proposition 65 enables Californians to make informed decisions about their exposures to these chemicals. Proposition 65 also prohibits California businesses from knowingly discharging significant amounts of listed chemicals into sources of drinking water. Proposition 65 requires California to publish a list of chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. This list, which must be updated at least once a year, has grown to include approximately 900 chemicals since it was first published in 1987. Proposition 65 became law in November 1986, when California voters approved it by a 63-37 percent margin.  The official name of Proposition 65 is the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986.

The list of chemicals contains a wide range of naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals that include additives or ingredients in pesticides, common household products, food, drugs, dyes, or solvents. Listed chemicals may also be used in manufacturing and construction, or they may be byproducts of chemical processes, such as motor vehicle exhaust.  For more information visit www.p65warnings.ca.gov/
