On the ww 1.0 the tri-foam header pipes in the gantry needs to have the pvc cap at the bottom of each header cut off and a valve glued on or a screwed cap put on so the bottom of the header so it can be cleaned out. From the last hole to the bottom, slime builds up and has no way out and cause...

close ups!

On our rinse tank there were two holes at the top where the fill valve was, we ran a 2" pvc header with two 2x2x1" tees and added two Bobs 3/4' float valves and they keep up fairly well.

Do you draw sf water from seperate holding tanks? Check the output of sf at the solenoid valve at the gantry, should give you answers if everything is working to that point.

Agree,, When someone leaves a lot of time on the timer and leaves the soap cycle on and running the regulator is put to work big time bypassing the soap mixture back into the suction. If there is a weak or bad pump valve it backs up into the tank. My system has a suction check that can go bad also.

One thing is the weight of the drop line will add extra weight to the bearings and wear them out quicker,,,another thing is the long hose length will make the product change over longer in time and will confuse customers..

OK if the expansion is a bladder tank not to much worry about overfilling,,,,,Like i said before there needs to be air trapped in the top portion of the regular tank if it is a closed system. Topping off the system with antifreeze thru the vertical fil tube is ok and running the system...

Give us more info on the "elevated expansion tank" is it a bladder tank or steel horizonal tank at the highest point......the expansion tank should never be filled with just system liquid, it should have a coushion of air at the top half to two thirds trapped there. Also how are you filling the...

Could there be something in the gantry that drops in front of the eyes every now and then that could be the problem, loose hose, wire, end of uncut off zip-tie, loose mounting bracket,,,,,,,,? Just a thought

Look at the bay floor real good to make sure the concrete has not cracked and shifted in a spot to pinch of a loop also look at the slab at the wall to see if it has heaped or droped during this changing weather. If you can get to the supply line that feeds the loops the bad bay might be the...

Also look at your winter blow down air system if you have one and make sure the solenoid valve is not leaking air into the lines. If there is a push lock fitting the ones with the collar to push and release the tube, they are only good for pressure and not holding vacuum, they will let air in...

I took a quick look at the web site listed above and the hypro pumps listed there are not good for self servs,,,I have several hypro model no 2512?? (I think) that are nearly 20 years old, I have rebuilt them several times and they are doing me a great job, ,keep oil changed and good valves and...

They make what they call a "lead-lag" controller that switches the two back and forth at a set time, you might google lead-lag controller and find what you need.

I was just wondering if they had it fixed yet????????Ha.

Call up Dultmeier they have them much cheaper than that.
