So you did you plumb this in with your rinse water?
I have a 100â reel to fill up my 525 gallon tank. I put the softner between my water source (house/business spigot) and my tank. If I am only using it for my soaps, just between spigot and 55 gallon drum and then fill up drum to make soap according to directions
My down stream injector has a dial that is also adjustable. I am gonna use the proportioners. (Thanks Hotshot)⌠you gave me a great idea!!
I know my injector is adjustable if i eant it to pull more or less chemical.
Should i switch it to an DI that is nit adjustable and use the proportioners.
Ok, thanks George!!
Ditch the adjustable DS injector ,youâll never get your ratios consistent, It moves from vibration. plus if you get a helper, they will fiddle with it as well.Get the $15 GP high draw injector .Those proportioner tips are idiot proof.
@Hotshot Is that the one from Pressure Tek?
@Hotshot Is that supposed to come with proportioners?
No, you buy them separately. I use them on the ends of chem lines to get my exact ratio mix. Then unscrew them off the brass when needed for a different job or task. Usually less dirt means less soap and acid , so I just down size my proportioners accordingly with
These lil guys that go into your mix
The brown part is actually brass and has a 1/4 " nipple barb that goes in snug to the poly line, then the proportioners screw into that ,then an optional strainer basket screws over the hole thing via those outer MPT threads.
I tried to post the picture of how I have my proportioners in my line but the website wonât allow me to post a picture from my phone anymore
This website?
This website. When I try to select a photo it wonât allow me to do so. I have to do it from my computer
What the Hell ⌠Thatâs weird
Cool⌠thanks fellasâŚ
Ok. Gotcha. Because mine didnât come with any! So just makinâ sure!
So my GP High Draw is 1:7 on my 4k / 4gpm. So I can buy proportioners and dilute it to an even higher ratio like 12:1? Does Pressure Tek sell them?
Search X-Jet proprtioner on PressureTek.com
Iâve got the xjet proportioners. I didnât realize you could use them in such a fashion!
I keep learning!
Youâll get the highest draw rate out of your injector without the use of any proportioners because there is no restriction in the hose. The proportioners will lower your rate. Same goes for an x-jet. The highest draw rate will be achieved without using them.
Ok, I shouldâve said âlowerâ ratio. So if my draw rate without proportioners is 7:1, I could make it 15:1 or whatever with proportioners, right?
Right.
Iâm assuming it would save you from batch mixing, I use mine to up my ratios, Because we draw 100 % concentrate. So if I wanna draw at 15:1 for example then no proportioners at all , if I want 30:1, then I know what color to screw in etc,etc
