HOOKING UP A BOOSTER PUMP TO A XERO PURE X2 | WATER FED POLE

Do you think this would work with a D.I. filter

It's so nice pushing a ton of water. Speeds things up a lot plus on a hot day the splash feels nice on the body....😁

Hey, Steve-O
I'm going to add this service to my business.
When you were washing that window, I didn't see any soap or suds. When you use this you don't need any soap or cleaner? Just learning this skill. Thanks Steve-O

If I am not mistaken that pump is cast iron. It will rust and leak into your filters. I would recommend the wayne PLS1000 1HP pump. It will not rust and ruin your filters. Correct me if I am wrong. Its been a while since I looked at that style of pump.

Nice video Steve. If you have low water pressure will the pump help? Or will it just struggle?

Can you shut the water off at the poles aka with a univalve so both poles are off. Will the pump cycle off or keep running?

Good stuff! I have that Wayne pump as well but have yet to use it. Have you noticed any issues with the pump inlet hose (not sure what that blue hose is in video...light or heavy duty) collapsing from the pump suction? I've also heard "non- drinking water safe" hoses may degrade and break down eventually clogging filters. The user instructions w/ the Wayne pump recommend using a HD garden hose(on inlet side only) as not to possibly collapse inner hose liner, but nothing about drinking water safe??? Dunno myself, thought I'd throw it out there. Super helpful video for me right now as I'm familiarizing myself w/ my XeroJR/pump set up!!! Do ya think dialing down the (quick connect shut off) on the carbon filter inlet would allow for adjusting pressure if it was too crazy high? Thanks for putting this together Steve! I look forward to your content always & a most sincere congratulations for the birth of your Son, you're a solid American👍

Show us your new truck Steveo😁

So do these systems have a maximum psi? Can you hook up the delavan 100psi pump to one of these ?

I have a company up in Vail and have a job that we use our Xero on, but water access is a long distance away and traditional window cleaning isn't really an option. I've been using yards of garden hose but feel like I lose good flow. Is this pump a solution or are there any other tricks? Any advice on how you deal with this particular situation would be appreciated. Thank you

I run a Wayne pump like this on my filter system daily. One thing you forgot to mention was you MUST flush the pump head with water BEFORE hooking it up to your filter. Those cast iron heads rust, and the rust if not flushed from the pump, clogs filters.
Secondly, running this booster pump PROLONGS the life of the RO filter. Low pressure kills a RO filter faster. The RO filters in these are meant to run at up to 100 PSI. The Wayne pump you use (and so do I) puts out up to 80 PSI. IMO the Wayne PC4 is the only 110 Volt pump worth messing with for these type of filter systems. Other booster pumps don't make enough pressure (or sometimes too much). IMO, the biggest benefit is the longer life span of the RO filter. Makes everything run better, and lowers TDS out of the RO. In turn, that means you are using less DI resin. For me, in a super HARD water area, this saves me a lot of money.

That is a Good video and a good idea SteveO you cut the costing on the new System because of this that was my biggest problem with water flow and also add it the generator in case not having access to any power point Thank Buddy ....!!!!

Hey stevo im new to your channel, btw your tips have helped me deliver faster and with great quality thank you, I've been cleaning windows for about 1 year now and im starting to get clients and im wondering how you got started, that is if you have your own company? I don't know if you already have a video on this if you i'd love to see it!

I got a question for ya. Can/should you use a DI tank only filtration to bring your TDS down in 200-300 TDS water areas for traditional bucket and a squeegee water with soaps and glides to make it harder to see any imperfections does it make it harder to see imperfections, can it help newer employees make less noticeable mess-ups as they learn? (Its like maybe 50 cents per gallon then like goes down to less than 25 cents per gallon after refills unless my math is wrong)

What orange brush is that?

Whats The price ON The pump?

Best way is too increase your brushes pencil jets flow and reduce the spray is to drill out your jets or rinse bar.. floods the glass

Love it 👍

Hey Steve. At what point, distance, Elevation do you recommend adding a booster pump. Like how many feet of length? I want to get into cleaning solar panels on carports for commercial businesses and some of the water spickets maybe 150+ feet away from the panels. We get pretty good pressure here in Phx but just in case. I have the "on the go" spotless DI system right now. It seems to get pretty good flow for now. Thx

You should add a tank in that van for pure water! I took my Reach IT Flow Blue and keep it in the shop w booster pump. Make my water at home to keep it consistent and run into tank in the back of the truck. It is nice. I got 40 gallon and carry a few 7 gallon jugs if need be but generally enough for couple houses and more or big jobs before i go home and make more. I love being portable and just unrealing the hose and fliping a switch .

Hey Steve.
Maybe it doesn't make much difference but wouldn't putting the pump in after the RO system be better?

Can you use this system with a gas pressure washer?

I think I need this pump. I am so sick of having little water pressure sometimes I want to just Throw the Pole because it's so frustrating that it drips out and won't rinse the window Is correctly. I would say here in New Jersey the pressure is so so depending where you are but more times and not I'm very disappointed by the pressure and makes a job much harder.

Hey Steve O, hoping you can provide some insight on that 100 maximum psi recommendation.

So I got a sprinkler booster pump from harbor freight. When plugging the psi gauge to the outlet port of the pump (which is hooked up from sprinkler spigot), the gauge goes from 55 psi without the pump, to 110-120 psi with the pump on.

My flow has 2.5x'ed from 0.7gpm before, to just around 1.8 gpm with pump on, plus my TDS has gone from 22 down to 9!... I'd say the RO membrane is operating considerably better with the high pressure. I looked up the Axeon HF-5 that I used for my build, and the spec sheet says optimal psi @80 and maximum psi @400

I hope that I am correct in assuming my pressure @120psi with pump on is ok.

Do you have any tips for the zero pure water pressure is way to low and I'm having to plug a pump almost every job! Anything helps thank you

Hi, another great video. What do you recommend should I have 200 feet of hose having to clean a 3 story building. What setup would you recommend?

is it best to stay around 90 psi for standarod xero pure revo?

What the difference between with the xero one with the smaller and bigger di tank. How long would the di last ?

Need help. Company has a SG1 system. What’s wrong when water runs through the pole/brush when extended up to 2.5 stories but flow stops when going higher? Need your feed back. Thank you

@SteveOthewindowcleaner is this wayne pump still a viable option. What's the difference between something like this and the Xero or Tucker booster pumps? The wayne pumps are considerably more affordable.

I would put atleast a sediment filter before your booster pump so it last longer
