Thread: who has a bypass at the wand

Who has a bypass at the wand to keep hot water at the wand? what is involved in doing this?


thanks

it simple, you will need a 1/4 tee 3 close nipples 1/4 one 1/4 ball valve from home depot 7.00

take of the qick connect to your wand insert the 1/4 tee then hook your qick connect back up. then put a nipple at the empty poirt on the tee then 90 degree it with a street l then hook up your ball valve then put a brass 1/4 hose barb in the ball valve then have a hole drilled in the wand have a ss 1/4 copler weleded in p[lace then put a nother street l on the 1/4 copler then a 1/4 brass hose barb and a hose with 2 worm gear clamps and you are done/ takes about 20 minutes.

thanks nick for the help......

I think it is a great idea, especially if you have an on demand heating system like kerosene or propane with the ST-1 flow switch. Although the ST-1 flow switch is a superior device it does not activate when tools have a low number tip. So if if your using a stair tool or an upholstery tool without a bypass. Nicks set-up is a great idea.

thats what I love about this site............ thanks guys.. going to get the materials today
