Worth a like and comment to help the algorithm. Thanks for this info

[@apexpressurecleaning]

Thanks for that.

[@MannyAguilarJr]

They're called "union nut" then you use the "end connector" to tighten to the ball valve.

[@apexpressurecleaning]

Good to know

[@chachul1501]

Amazing informative comparison!👍
Next video? Draw flow test😄

[@apexpressurecleaning]

I’ll have to give that a try. Thanks for the idea.

Where are the 1" GF Valves??? I could totally use them, willing to pay the price for quality, but I've looked all over and cannot for the life of me find them. Only 3/8 and 1/2

[@alanphillips1344]

Thanks for the information. Very informative as I am new to the industry and learning as much as I can. Have one question, I can’t find the metering blocks. Where do you get them or do you sell them?? Thanks in advance.
(Ah crap! So stupid! Just went to your web page. Now I know where to get my stuff!!)

[@apexpressurecleaning]

Thanks for the kind words.
I do have the 1/2” manifold blocks on the site, and will add the 3/4” blocks going forward. But lately I’ve sold the 3/4” systems faster than I can update the listings on the website.
If you need a 3/4” block, contact me.

[@alanphillips1344]

Thanks and I will.

If you don’t mind me asking what does 1.5 means on the batch Buster does that mean 10 1/2 ratio?

[@apexpressurecleaning]

Assuming the water valve is fully open and the user is using the industry standard 12.5% sodium hypochlorite/bleach, turning the bleach valve to 1.5 would give you 1.5% mixture at the gun.

[@williammata6019]

@@apexpressurecleaning thank you so much 🙏

[@utesandvansutesandvans7043]

Do I ship to nz your site says no

[@andrewhal9720]

Do you put Tru blue or Teflon tape between the body and collar?

[@apexpressurecleaning]

No, there is an o ring that seals the collar to the valve body.

[@benjaminwilson6808]

I will say it’s not a claim on more flow with the blue ball. It’s a 100% fact. Less starvation on pumps while increasing flow significantly and not messing with metering percentages.

[@johnmakbuilds]

Nice video! where do you order custom ones from? Obviously I would need order bulk but I’m interested in purchasing custom ones for our rigs.
Thanks!

[@johnmakbuilds]

Disregard. I didn’t realize at beginning of video that you built systems for sale. I wouldn’t disclose sources for materials. I apologize for asking. Just wanted reply to let you know why I asked such a dumb question!

[@fijicivic24]

Where’s the check valve cuhh. For the batch buster helps with a large valve

[@apexpressurecleaning]

I don't understand the question?

[@edisontorresflores]

Whos the manufacturer of the batch buster. SeSw may assemble some of it buy they dont make them.

[@apexpressurecleaning]

Agreed, SESW has them made per their spec. I'm not sure who manufacturers them.

[@paulsuli3581]

what's to manufacture besides the dial and handle. the flange can be purchased as well as the blue ball is just cut a bit larger to increase the flow.

[@erikrose4114]

Why would one want 3/4" metering valves on a 7gpm pump?

[@apexpressurecleaning]

More flow

[@erikrose7041]

So the 1/2” are restricting?

[@apexpressurecleaning]

@@erikrose7041 yes, they restrict and limit your distance. But they still work and we still sell 1/2" proportioners

[@DumbCarGuy]

SESW should have used a different color than blue. Most guys don't like to hear about blue balls.

[@AaronsLeanMeanAcademy]

but you never forget a blue ball. :)

[@benjaminwilson6808]

Batch buster is the only valve that is actually engineered for the industry and true to metering capabilities

[@kylecrisman9230]

No it’s not. Cody just copies everyone else and claims that he invented it Look at his new pump. He copied North Star 24 volt pump Personally I hate 12 volts anyways but all the newbies that don’t know anything flock to Cody because they are green and don’t know any better

[@scraplifetrashtocash4551]

​@@kylecrisman9230 He will be sued into bsnkruptcy if those manfactures find out he is copying and stealing their design. I know Truckmount building guy who lost everyrhing over building and selling someone elses designs claiming it was his. U can rebuild anything. Its when u copy and resale as its your design when those people will sue u broke
