Proportioner Build & Test

I built a proportioner for my soft wash system. I tested the ball valve on the water side to see if the draw is the same as the metering valve.
Updated 5/4/2024: Parts list for all fittings from Farmchem.com. Farmchem does not have the check valves so you need to get them from US plastics.com or another source. Just remember to make sure they are 1/3 crack pressure. You will need to purchase the metering valves separately. I went to my local pool company to purchase Pentair valves. I upgraded to the 1/2" Asahi valves from the Pentairs. You could also convert all the fittings to 3/4" for additional flow if needed.
3- HB050 (1/2" MNPT X 1/2" Hose Barb)
1-HB050-025 (1/2" MNPT x 1/4" Hose Barb)
1- CR050 (1/2" 4-way)
6- NIP050-SH (1/2" x 1.75" Nipple)
3- HB050-90- You can use this 90 or a straight fitting depending on your set up (1/2" MNPT x 1/2" 90 degree Hose barb)
3- 22210 (1/2" Check Valves from US Platics.com)
2- SL050-90 (1/2" Pipe Elbow)
1- HB050-075 (I chose to use this fitting from the proportioner to the pump. (1/2" MPNT x 3/4" Barb)

I run a ball valve on the water side and two Pentair valves for soap and SH. Ball valve stays open for a house wash I dial the SH between 1-2 number on the Pentair. Works good. I throttle the ball valve back a 1/4 turn for roof washing. I run the SH between 4-5 number. I run a NorthStar 7gpm pump 12 volt. Going on my 3rd year with that pump. I buy my SH at 10 percent. Pentair valves are going on 3 yrs with no problems. I run 200 ft of 5/8s flexilla hose. My system works for me no issues. I will say I tried running a Pentair on the water side at first and it restricted my vertical distance by 10 feet when it was on. The 1/2 inch diameter proportional system is restrictive in my opinion when running a 7 GPM pump. Now a 5.5 gpm might work fine. But just wanted to share what works for me.

@Under_PressureSW 3 месяца назад
What I’ve gathered from the pentairs are they are honestly the same when it comes to percentage. All the way (if you’re using 10%) would be a 50/50 mix which would be 5%. Half way would be 2.5% and so on. The numbers tend to scare a lot of people cause they think the numbers on the dials are 1%,2%,3% etc lol

as someone who just took an interest in this trade, i was very curious how this setup worked, i was wondering if each tank had its own independent pump but i see now they do not by the looks of this video and use the same pump to draw each of the chemicals through the same pump out through to the main hose. so thank you for taking the time to demonstrate this and show how it all works and goes together.

I've always suspected that the metering valve is BS. Running all inexpensive ball valves will be drawing the same abounts keeping the ratios equal.,
@LawrenceL1000
@LawrenceL1000 Год назад
“Hey catch up”.. I love it when you say that on your vids😂😂 Anyway there’s a brand ASAHI who’s metering valves design solved this phenomenon. By full open the metering valves practically the same inside diameter as the ball valves. If you look at the other metering valves the inside diameter at full open is way smaller than the ball valve, hence less flow! Wash on brother 🤘🏽
@allproexteriorservicesllc5338
Good info. I just made some changes to my 12 volt proportioner with Asahi valves. Vid will drop soon!! Wash on brother.

am I wrong in thinking you could just use all ball valves? wouldn't both h2o and sh being set on full open be 5-6% mix, set h20 full and sh to half, now you got 2.5-3% and so on. as for surfactant just crack it open till you like the draw.

I'm not the brightest light bulb, but is there a need to meter the water. Can you just run the ball valve for the water fully open. I understand it has a different flow rate from the pentair valves. But does that really matter. Please clarify. Also wouldn't more water flow be an optimal scenario. I don't know anything, I'm just trying to learn to set up for myself. Thank you
@allproexteriorservicesllc5338
@allproexteriorservicesllc5338 5 месяцев назад
Yes, more flow from the ball valve will not give an accurate mix. Knowing the percentages with accurate valves equates to applying to correct solution & chemical savings. Knowing your chemical draw is key in the industry. Hope this helps. Thanks

Pentair valves is all you need. They are made for chlorine and the more expensive ones aren’t needed.

Every Pentair valve I had ended up leaking. In my experience, the GF valve hold up much better. Thanks

What would happen if you maybe used a 3/8 ball valve instead of a 1/2 inch control for the water, I’m thinking this may work
@allproexteriorservicesllc5338
@allproexteriorservicesllc5338 3 года назад
It may work, but 3/8 ball valve may be hard to find. I would recommend just using a metering valve. Thanks
@jeffellis7348
@jeffellis7348 3 года назад
I did this same experiment but i used two of those 1/2" ball valves in series for the water. The one closest to the cross stayed closed but i drilled a hole through the ball to imitate the resistance i was getting on the metering valve. The second valve was my shutoff. It took some fine tuning but after I got it it stayed consistent on the draw rate. My metering valve cracked recently so I may see if I can do the whole module similarly. I can buy the metering valves but I enjoy the tinkering.

@ashleycowart1937

Assuming the flow rates remained consistent day to day on the first test, wouldn't that result in about 3-4% mixture and more flow overall? Curious what the comparison would be in gpm for the ball valve/pentair vs 2 pentairs wide open.
@allproexteriorservicesllc5338
@allproexteriorservicesllc5338 3 года назад
Not sure about the GPM test. However, with a ball valve flowing more than the Pentair it would dilute the SH%. The pump is only a 5.5 GPM so not sure about the extra flow. Thanks

Does your flexzilla hose not flatten out and restrict flow when on the hose reel?

We always take the feed hose all the way off the reel to maximize flow. Thanks

Is called common sense, the meter valve is measured and smaller ball opening, but no need that meter valve
@michaelhebert8197
@michaelhebert8197 3 года назад
What if the ball valve was smaller than the 2 metering valves? Maybe it would equal out then?
@allproexteriorservicesllc5338
@allproexteriorservicesllc5338 3 года назад
It may work. But if you are only doing roofs through the proportioner, then 2 ball valves would work for sure. You would just always have a 5% or 6.25% depending on your SH concentration.
