Tricks of the Trade - Quick Connect Hose Adapter

Tricks of the Trade - Quick Connect Hose Adapter

I wanted to show you a little trick. A lot of guys come in looking for a connector for their 3/8" hose. Most of the time before we found this product we suggested a reducer, from 1/2" to 3/8". But now there is a 1/2" to 3/8" plug, that will screw right into your hose reel, and then you put the coupler on the hose. And you just hook it up, and you are ready to go. No big deal. When you start adding those additional pieces it starts to leak, and it gets expensive.

Tricks of the Trade - Stay away from "Fluffy" hoses

Tricks of the Trade - Stay away from "Fluffy" hoses

The topic of hose safety will be covered today. A customer requested us to crimp his hose, but when he arrived, it was full of "fluffy" threads. The "fluffy" materials would be burned if we severed his hose. We were so unable to get a uniform crimp. Unless you're a total stickler for detail, I'd like not to deal with fluff while working with hoses. I would prefer to work with a hose that has one or two wires. Their pliability remains intact. The client is currently employing hoses that could cause chemical burns. Before a 1- or 2-wire hose completely blows, you might notice a crack or a rupture.

Tricks of the Trade - 3/8" Mosmatic Swivel

#TricksOfTheTrade Today I am talking about the Mosmatic Swivel. Everyone knows that you need this at the end of your hose; it's a time saver, a life saver. But Trudi's tricks-of-the-trade is the high-flow 3/8 swivel. You can see the difference between the regular and the high-flow. Look at the difference; you are going to get more flow all the way through. So next time you need to order a new one or replace your swivel, make sure you take a look at the 3/8"

Tricks of the Trade - Why do you pretreat when washing

Tricks of the Trade - Why do you pretreat when washing

I wanted to show a couple of reasons why we pretreat. 1) You can remove all the debris out of the way, so you're not getting your surface cleaner bar all wrapped up in this pine straw or whatever you have in your area. 2) You're going to also the water and soap to soak and help loosen the dirt and grime 3) You get to find out which way the water is running. So I start at the bottom, while I go back and forth, all the dirty water flows down and doesn't sit in what I just cleaned. That way I only have to clean once.
