I would highly suggest putting a wall behind the car seats. That will ensure in the event of a car accident nothing flies to the front. I’m sure you probably have some fasteners on some things but your bag etc do not and will fly forward and cause bodily harm. Especially in case someone else is in the car with you and was preventable. For a cheap wood setup this looks well done and I’m sure helps out a lot. Good luck!

Nice setup. I’ve been detailing for almost 9 years and I’ve had several setups…I still don’t understand the need for a water pump. If you design your setup with the pressure washer 2-3” below the water tank you don’t have to worry about a water pump ever.
@DetailWithJess
@DetailWithJess 6 месяцев назад
I heard both good and bad about gravity feeding the pressure washer so I just opted not to take the chance and just put the pump in.

This is really similar to how I had my first van, over time - you will find things that work and don’t, so to all you newbies out there… don’t get stuck on “my van has to be perfect or look good to get started” that isn’t true! Build it out, use it, find what works and doesn’t, improve , repeat!

Hi Jess! I admire your setup, very convenient and efficient! Question; I have tried to connect my pressure washer using the remote control you have! I follow the instructions, but I haven’t been able to make it work. When I program the receiver with the remote, it turns it on/off (receiver) but the pressure washer won’t work, it turns on at first but when I turn off both, and then turn it back on, the pressure washer won’t. Any advice I will really appreciate it. Best wishes on your business!!

@@DetailWithJess I was going to ask a similar question. I have a 40 gallon rectangular tank from Amazon and I was wondering if you think that is enough to do one car without limiting the water output? I never plan on doing more than one car/customer at a time. It's a hard question to answer I know but thanks for replying

@DetailWithJess
@DetailWithJess 3 месяца назад
That’s awesome! Honestly, just set your biggest items in place first and work the rest around it. Take into consideration what you actually need. Like, in an SUV setup, you could fit a small water tank but you could also use your clients water in a lot of cases. So focus on what you need and what you can use of your client and just factor that into your pricing.

Do you leave the other valve open while the water is pumping to the pressure washer or do you open it every time you let off the handle of the pressure washer?
@DetailWithJess
@DetailWithJess 5 месяцев назад
The pressure release valve has a short hose attached to it that I either leave to drain outside the van or back into the tank; I think that’s the “other valve” that you are asking about.

The splitter valve has two valves.. they should both be open all the time...
