Another 1 fixed and tuned to the correct psi!
Rewired the soft wash system from a 12 gauge on a 7 ft system total of 14 feet total! 5.3 remco 100 psi 19 amps
Rewired to 6 gauge wire
Changed out the Switch to a new one that can handle 275 amps on the normal. 455amps at surge. No choke point on the switch anymore. You never drop down on wire on a switch in a high draw amps. This creates a choke point and hurts the system.
Also replaced the Mircoswitch. When doing so you must put a gauge on it. It was set to 40 psi and the pump was 100 psi.
So without a gauge, you have no clue what you’re at on PSI.
We did a voltage drop test and it was under 12 at the pump before we rewired it. Now holding 12 volts no issues.
If you are gonna build a system you must have the storage behind it to keep it above 12 volts at all times.
All soft wash system at a minimum needs a lithium battery to hold 13.8 volts. 3-5 hours of spraying time.
When a marine battery is used it is not able to do what a lithium battery can due. So if you are running marine you will always need 2 to help with the work.
2 lithium batteries installed then you are spraying all day for 4-8 roof cleans no issues plus.
Hope this helps. Stop with these 5% volt drop installs it’s trash for a pump you’re asking to do all the work.
Like buying a 8 gpm Pw and only getting 5 gpms.
Let’s go we will be better out here!
The GOAT 
Example
I ran amp to amp with no surge or 125-150% over build. And I don’t see 12 gauge to be ok to use on this system?

- A must watch on why you must use 1% drop
- The wire on the pump has nothing to do with the install
- WHY you never want a 5% plus voltage drop
- A really good video on wire and buildsThanks again for all the Gifts & Tips on the site to keep it running.

- If your demand pump breaks. This is how to fix it.
- Let’s look over this systemI need you to learn WHY. A lot of people don’t know Low Voltage
- The wiring is key to a succesful buildYou will always hear me say this over and over The WHY? Do you see how wrong 90% of these builds are? You have to understand, what you are doing. So you can do the job correctly, right? who wants or needs stress & down time.
- You Must mix with a drill. The pour method doesn’t work!It heavy so it sinks to the bottom right? So, now you suck all that soap and you run out. You just wasting your money.
- Soft Wash PSI Gauge BuildI made this so easy for you. Just 2 clicks and it will add to your cart on amazon. If your running a 12v, 24v & Gas Softwash YOU NEED THIS. All Builders should have this on hand. How do you not check the builds with no PSI checks. That’s just as bad as not… Read more: Soft Wash PSI Gauge Build
- Happy Veterans Day!!
- Storage is your RUN-TIMEYou have to understand, what you are building. Please ask questions before spending money and build them incorrectly.
- What a Voltage Drop test looks like, Dan did one for use after his day of work and still holds over 12 volts. This an old video but shows the facts1 AGM Battery holding this much power still after a day of work. I have him do his new setup test with 2 batteies.
- More on the wiring and switch, New Video
- Each system needs a diffrent build. Must learn the right way how to do it. It’s Not the PumpWhen you give these pumps what they need they will make you amazed. All Equiment has a place on a job. Is 12 volt the best? All depends on your work load. Gotta build it right before you can bad mouth a system.
- If you run a Delavan pump, thing’s you must knowThis is when people really talk shit about a pump. Why? because they didn’t install it right. can’t be using 10, 8 you should be on 6 gauge wire to a bus bar. Then pump off the bar. This pump is surging at 35 plus amps. This is where OHM’S LAW comes into play. Now… Read more: If you run a Delavan pump, thing’s you must know

- You must MIX your SOAPPlease don’t just DROP the SOAP in. What a waste of money and uneven soap. Use a paint paddle mixer. Mix it for awhile. Most soaps are heavy and will sink to the bottom. So you will draw all that soap up fast and be out.
- You have to Filter before the Water TankThis is another thing I started seeing down the road. All you see is fiters right before the pump. What happen to filtering before the pump so aren’t sucking dirty water into your soft wash system.
- These are the tools you need for big wireI have mine here! Here are some extra stuff that might help you install.
- I made you a Starter Kit, Set it and forget it lol$108.00 – One and Done.Invest once, wire it right, and never stress again. (As long as you take care of it, that wire’s built to outlast your pump!)
- Please watch and listen to this pleaseyou are all underwired, underrated switch & not enought storage
- A MUST have, to installProper Install Checklist – 12V / 24V Soft-Wash Systems To do a proper install, you must start with the right tools and the right numbers.
- Not a good idea!You must know the correct fuse for the line you’re running.You can’t put a 30-amp breaker or fuse on 20-amp rated wire — that’s asking for a meltdown, not performance.Always size your protection to the wire rating, not the pump draw.
- My wire I useThe only wire I will run on a setup. We are building a salt water boat. So no bare copper should be used. 6 AWG 80 amp wire so we have enought for this setup.
