- I am asked nearly 5 times a week if a 2.5 GPM washer is ok to start with? It's more than just ok, it's way better than what I use in this How To House Wash Video.

What I love most about this is he is a professional who's actually doing this at a real job he got. Went on a forum today and so many people were saying unless you use at least 5 GPM you are a disgrace to the industry. How the heck am I supposed to start if I can't afford a 1500 dollar machine? Exactly. So annoying when people do that
Sam Plautz stick with me my friend! I actually care and want you to succeed!
I completely agree, a 5000 dollar setup is no easy task for a beginner
Gotta start somewhere. I’m trying a 2.5
@@Therealtrailer707 itll make you money 100%. I've just been doing concrete cleaning and I'm making money. Still trying to wrap my head around softwashing/downstreaming, but we'll get there. For now, concrete
@@every_thing_wood1251good luck to you bro! Hope u grow and make tons of money! I'm considering starting a pressure washing business and been watching tons of videos
I know your video is four years old, but I’m a single mom, and I’m starting, with every piece of advice you’ve given me. I’m making my mortgage, and keeping clothes on my children, just want thank you sir. For sharing your information,Tampa Florida
I run two Ryobi machines for 4 years now.
1 is 2700 the other 2900 psi 2.5 gpm.
I use a downstream connector for my cleaners to get past the pump. I have ran 200 feet of hose with a backpack pump sprayer on my back with a 50/50 mix put the downstreamer on my gun and took the hose for the sprayer with the wand off and hook it to my downstreamer and roll on. I open the lid just a little but it's not necessary. I get houses done fast and I have done car dealerships like Miller Toyota etc. I have also gotten 15 and 30 gallon drums from carwash that were empty and $100 sureflow pump 3gpm and now can softwash with a pump. We do decks and roofs. Pump has a light 100foot hose hooked to it with a metal garden sprayer with a disconnect on 5he end so I can put on wands and tips . You can do this and get paid if you think your way through it,do a good job,do the research watch hundreds of RUclips videos on it and apply yourself. Dont do jobs for nothing just to book jobs. I charge what the big boys do and I have a van,newly acquired because last year I was pulling a $300 Harbor freight trailer with a Ford explorer. Flyer houses that are dirty only,build yourself up on Facebook groups only use a hit mix on dirty sides and lighter mix on not so dirty,your better off using more soap on a slightly dirty house than a full bleach bath. I use to put 3 gallons of bleach in a 5 gallon bucket 2 gallons of water and dawn and pull it around hitting whole house heavy. Go light mix on not so dirty sides and heavier where needed. Back pack spray what you can with a 50/50 mix to speed up wash time where its heavy. You will use less material this way and still produce a super job. Dan's videos along with many others gave me the info I needed to be who I am today and today I am a powerwash/softwash beast pulling down the jobs and getting 100% referrals from clients I've worked for. Good luck everyone and thank you Dan for all you do and have done :) wash on brother's!!!
Very cool to hear. I had two larger surface area clients this week (my first where I used this method). No idea what downstream injector means but will research. I'm just foregoing my pressure washer and using 4gallon backpack with 50/50 mix. It's strong, aggregates my eyes at times and I worry about plants etc. Some stubborn spots require 2-3x applications. I've charged about $70/hr. Using a mask and gloves now. Will try using pressure washer with black tip directly into Bleach. But local stores only selling 6.5% SH or maybe an 8% if lucky.
I have a ryobi 3100psi. How do I downstream with it?
Extremely helpful video. You are an inspiration for those of us that are unable to purchase a fancy pressure washer. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. No excuses! Thank you so much!
Thank you I did this today in about 45 minutes. Saved me some money and the house is spotless. Thank you Dan.
You’re welcome Brian
You have so much patience, I've seen you answer the same questions countless times. And answer questions you have covered 100 times in the videos. 👏👏
Lol I have to remember each time as I begin to lose my mind that I too was once very new and hungry for info
I was thinking the same thing looking through all the comments and reading all the knowledge he is giving people over and over again...gonna do my first house wash here in a week or two and I’m gonna do and use exactly what he says to do
Glad I came across this video. A lot of research and videos showing the minimum is 4gpm. When someone tries to say different they're just told they have no idea what they're talking about. They're setting people up for failure and damage claims. Then I've found a few videos of people using a 2.5, and found this video. Using a garden hose. Point was definitely made.
They are micro-weenie douche bags that think their way is the ONLY way.
Yes, but to clean brick or cement, this would not work…or would it?
Love this content! It's entrepreneurship at its best and I love it!
Looked thru so many other p.w videos and i finally found the info i was looking for. My man!
I am glad to of helped you out
Dan. You're inspiring buddy. I work full time, and my side hustle is delivery for Amazon, but I love your videos because you're inspiring. You are a good soul, and a very good person.
Thank you Don. Delivering for Amazon has got to keep you one heck of a busy person… Sounds like a great side hustle gig
Dan's Da Man.
Dan, I am going to have to say... that you are just the ideal person that can make anyone work, with just a simple will and the formula to be able to mix the right chemicals to get the right results. You are the DA MAN!
Thank you
I have 3 mag signs for my pickup, 1000 mag business cards and 25 yard signs coming. All lettered as per your instructions in another vid. It's gonna happen bro and it is all because of your unselfish tutoring, THANK YOU AGAIN !!
Oh yeah, have you ever done/ do you do roofs ? if so what mix ?
You are very welcome and no I never did roofs. Scared of heights!
im just scared of the fall.lol
b h it's not the fall that hurts, it's the sudden stop
Ron Lacey hey man how are things going? It's been about 6 months since you posted that comment, how are things coming along?
Awesome DAN I think this will be very helpful to some ppl. And inspiring for others. thanx dan!!
That comment "that's exactly how my broke ass started"😂😂😂 made my day! Now, this is how my broke ass will start🙌 thanks Dan the man
You just made me feel better about starting my business with nothing but a 2.4gpm pw pump 2 gallon pump sprayer and 15" sc and you showed me another way to basically soft wash with out a soft wash rig. Thank you
Happy to help
Not for nothing bro but your an amazing mentor. I have a side business doing soft washes April thru end of fall , upstate ny weather. Anyway I seen a video u made a comment sometimes u get urself into mixed emotions doing these videos.

My wife and I were down and out I happend to see one of your videos snd u literally helped me change my life around . Last year alone I made 62 grand more than I did the year before just by side work soft washes. I quote u all the time man. I finally got to place where i hired to guys, after I hired them I told them if they watch and subscribe to your videos and pass a simple written test in a week I would give them immediate raise. It worked great, I dont get all the green horn questions or worry about them causing more damage than there worth. Point of this book I'm writing is THANK U FOR YOUR SO VERY DETAILED VIDEOS. I THINK COMBINED WITH YOUR REALISTIC ATTITUDE. YOUR MOTIVATION TO LEAD BY EXAMPLE AND JUST THE FACT THAT U CANT STOP EXPLAINING THE IMPORTANCE OF DETAILS. YOUR A GOOD MAN FOR WHAT U DO. DONT EVER DOUBT YOURSELF BUD YOUR MAKING DIFFERENCE FOR PEOPLE'S LIFES ALL OVER IM SURE IM NOT THE ONLY ONE. IF I CAN GIVE U ANY ADVICE IT WOULD BE TO USE THE HIGHER END GO PRO CAMERAS, COMES ESTER PROOF , EXTREMELY WIDE ANGLES, AUTO LIGHT TO DARK ADJUSTER, ZOOM , GREST SOUND WITH NO BS HEADSET, VIEWERS GET FIRST HAND VIEW OF EVERYTHING FROM STSRTING THE MOTOR TO CLIMBING UP LADDERS TO DO A GUTTER FLUSH OR ROOF WASH , FIRST HAND VIEW OF HOW U HABDLE UR CUSTOMERS, THAT IS IF THEY COMSENTED.

Thank You. I have not changed anything about my recipe or technique to this day
Hi Dan. I bought a ryobi 2000 psi 1.2 gpm and it cleaned the house, all of the patio furniture, the big shed and two cars

Excellent well detailed video. I am going to do my house right now ... Thanx for this video.
+Richard Montague Good luck Richard and you're welcome
I wanted to Personally thank you for your advice and your videos. I used the pool shock plus Ajax dishwashing soap to clean the gutters on my house and my whole house. It worked just as you indicated. worked like a charm just wanted to say thank you for the information greatly appreciate it
You’re welcome but I never told anyone in any video to ever use pool shock plus Ajax. I said use Pool Essentials 10% SH and Dawn. Glad it worked out for you
Pool shock is Basically the same thing as pool essentials I feel Ajax detergent works better at cutting grease than dawn. Your videos are really good and was very helpfully with tons of information. Thanks again for all your knowledge
thanks for all the info. you have encouraged me to get out and try this myself on my house
Perfect! Give it a shot and let me know how it works out for you
Great video dan

Another good vid
I washed my 1st house today. It was so nasty and hadn't been cleaned in 30 plus years. I charged $300. I tried the pool essentials with my down streamer but it was so weak and ended up having to use a pump sprayer which took forever but it was spotless when I was done and the owners were very happy. I'm trying to save up for a 4gpm unit before because my 2.3gpm barely is cutting it. Thanks again Dan for all the advice. Loving your channel.
Excellent job Mike! You are off and running!!!
thanks man i appreciate this video .. I'm new and this really is a boost of confidence
Good luck buddy
Thanks you are a lot of help
Great video! Ive got a pressure washing rig ive been wanting to get going but I wasn't sure if it was sufficient. You sir have re-inspired me. Thank you!

+Nico Riva My pleasure Nico
Dan's Vlog do you have a face book
Nico Riva @dans daily vlog
Thank you Dan.
Nice job👍
Great video Dan. have you done any roof washes? If so what would be your mixing ratios on a down stream pressure washer vs pump?
Good stuff
How do you feel about simple green. They have a 2.5 gallon of it at my local home depot
I picked up a sthil rb600. Great unit with a triplex pump and kohler engine.
Liked and subbed. Thanks man
Thank you
Thanks dan for the info. Very helpful. Question do you have problems with spotting the windows or how do you go about dealing with the windows in general? Do you clean the windows with the cleaning or do you leave them alone and spotted? New to this game.
hey man thanks a lot I did my mother-in-law house and it turn fabulous that solution really works I fill like I owe you something, so I subscribe to your Channel and gave you a thumbs up,awesome video.
Glad I could help
Im a new subscriber thank you for such a great video i am going to start a house cleaning bussiness soon. Ive been researching and came accross your video today. For those that arent able to buy exspensive equipment to start this is perfect. Also ive noticex that would fence behind you this is another great way to get started with a pump sprayer and or a back pack sprayer and garden hose is to start out washing wood decks and wood fences then reinfest the money you make from thar to get better equipment.
Thank you and I wish you the best of luck
Thanks for the video you really helped me understand the chemical and water ratio. Just a quick question can I spray this stuff on brick houses and other house surfaces? Thanks for the video and keep up the good work
Dan, Before I had pressure washer, I have washed houses with some soap, bleach, a couple of scrub brushes, 3 gal bucket, and a ladder.
The good old days!
Great vid
Great information my friend! Merci beaucoup
Thank you
I started with a 3gpm 3000psi pump and a 5.5gpm softwash pump worked great for me
Awesome!
Look man you do real stuff
Awesome video man, very knowledgeable.
Thank you
Cleaned my house with my $200 1.2gpm electric pressure washer and it came out awesome.
Dan, great video... I've never pissed hot before; however, if I did. I'm sure it would have been as potent as the mix you used in this video. I enjoyed the military jargon. Again, great video. Thank you. -Santiago
Thanks bro, keep on keeping on
Thank you
Dan ... excellent instruction.... I compliment you on taking your time to share very detailed information and your personal experience with everyone looking to start their own small business. High Fives brother ... for motivating people who need that extra nudge.
Tom at Structure Group
would those sprayers reach the top of a 2 story house? or are these better suited for bungalows/1storys
Dan, I "moonlight" doing power washing of houses, decks, fences, etc. I have an old(er) pressure washer (Honda GC160 engine with a Comet axial pump that has a downstream chemical injector). This pump has a red knob on top of it for controlling the amount of "offload" pressure, but there is no way to control the mixing ratio of Pool Essentials Bleach to the water going through the pump. That said I have no idea what the mixing ratio is on this pump ... I simply draw the bleach directly from its container through the chemical injector and it mixes with the water going out through the gun hose. I used this configuration to wash a 2,000 square foot 2 story vinyl sided house. At 10% sodium hypochlorite, the house came out looking beautiful! I had no issues with the discoloring of the siding. So that said, in repeating what you said early on in this video, would you agree that I should be okay using Pool Essentials on future vinyl sided houses without discoloration? I cannot say doing this one house 100% proves that will be the case, but it seems to show I will be fine. Second, I would like to purchase a good quality telescoping wand (up to 18 feet?) ... any suggestions for wands that would be a good buy, possibly at a big box store like Lowes or via the web? This video is excellent, as are your other videos! Thanks for responding to my inquiry!
I find no purpose in telescoping wands. Pink tip to get high, black tip for low. I personally never discolored anything especially vinyl siding with how I mix my SH. That does not mean you never will. This is a risky business. Nothing is definete or absolute. You MUST use your judgement and learn as you go. All I can do is say what I do and how it works for me
The only reason I mention a telescoping wand is due to my washer not being 4 gallons per minute. It is 2.5 gallons per minute. I find that with mine I have to use a wand extension to get high up ... on occasion really high up in some "nook and cranny". I would like to get a 4 gallon per minute machine, but cannot do so presently. I think you mentioned that the Honda GX270 3,800 psi 3.5 GPM Gas Pressure Washer is a good choice? Here is a web link for it www.homedepot.com/p/DEWALT-Honda-GX270-3-800-psi-3-5-GPM-Gas-Pressure-Washer-DXPW3835/203185011. If so, I know this is nit picking, but technically that is 3.5 not 4 gallons per minute ... is that okay or should I shoot for a true 4 gallon per minute machine spec wise? Thanks Dan!
Did you add surfactant to the sh
Thanks for the response Dan, I had purchased the telescoping Rod and returned it back to the store lol , too much work
Thanks for the link also😊
I purchased the pool essentials , followed your instructions , the results were outstanding!!!
That's why I took the telescoping wand back .
I just couldn't find the black nozzle at the big box stores .
I purchased the second story nozzles ( pink and blue and it worked perfectly for my Ridgid 3400 psi unit !??
That's awesome news Duane. Good luck in the future. Keep me updated
Hey Dan, Thanks for the easy to follow video. As a broke*ss mofo homeowner, I am doing as much maintenance as I possibly can. I'll be getting a sprayer for the chemicals this week. This 61 yr old lady thanks you for helping me to keep my house looking good.
Great! Happy to help!
did a 61 year old lady just say "broke ass mofo?"
Dang good video!!! I just hope I can find the solution you used! Our home needs a good cleansing!! You're awesome!!
Thank you
Thanks man
No Bullsh*t, Just Pressure Washing. Damn, I'm thinking of getting a Mohawk. DAN THE MAN! Keeping it 💯 % real!
Thank you
I'm trying to start prusserwashing houses ..what do I need to start can you please make a list.
Thanks brother... subscribed.
Thank you
This so the best channel
I agree!!
Starting to get into soft washing and you see all the people with all the fancy rigs 1020 15,000 Rigs and just come back to Dan's videos and he just shows you you don't need all that so I hope everybody gets out of this is you don't need all the bells and whistles this is pretty basic basic equipment that doesn't break the bank thank you Dan I always come back to your videos 2024
Just did my first house wash with my $100 2.5gpm pawnshop pressure washer. 2 story house with super high peaks and an even higher chimney. Uphold them on a driveway cleaning and banged that out with my $60 Lowe’s surface cleaner. Don’t need a gang of money or the best equipment to get out and make some money
Awesome job!
What was your process? I have a 2.5gpm and am a little discouraged on doing larger homes because I'm not sure how to get my SH mixture dispersed. My PW does not have a downstream injector option. I can only use the concentrated products off the shelf which in my opinion don't work well. Please if you can respond
@@abelvillarreal5383 I bought a downstream injector on ebay for like $28? It took a while for me to figure out how to get it to pull (I had assembled it backwards and didn't open the little valve lol) and I would deff reccomend playing with it and getting it working at home first instead of just trying to figure it out at the customers house like I did lolol. But you can deff do a 2 story house with just your pressure washer and a downstreamer. The house I did was a very tall 2 story with very high peaks and a higher chimney.
I filled a 5 gal bucked with 2 gals of pool chlirnator (sh 10%) and put my injector in it and started spraying. I had to go slower on the higher areas because the spray would thin out by the time it got all the way up there but it did get up there and did the trick.
You got this bro, if I can pull it off literally anyone can lol
@@thirdcoasthustle Thank you for the response brother. Ordered my downstream injector today and I'm looking forward to testing it out.
I work for a maintence company and do a few pressure wash jobs a year and want to try the soft wash. I have a rigid 3000psi 2.6gpm pressure washer. It has down stream capability from the factory. It has a knob and you can choose off or rear bottle which is small tank built on the unit or front bottle which you have a siphon hose to put in a bottle or bucket. I know you guys use a after market down stream injector. I want to try soft wash on a tenants house to make life easier on me but with the factory set up on my pressure washer do you think I would be safe doing 10%sh or 8%sh. ? I just don't know what mix ratio the factory set up is or if you think it is probably a junk injector and I should put a aftermarket one like you guys on my pressure washer?
