Flow comparison between upholstery tools

[Mikey P]

Jim and any of you other deep thinkers, if you set your Sapphire or rotovac upholstery tools to 400 psi, what do you think the single jet tool that I'm working on should be set at to compare dry times

I'm thinking 200 PSI with an 01 jet..

I'm not certain that will be a complete comparison.

The Upholstery Pro, at "open flow" ( a setting I rarely use it on, but for gross stuff you could need to) and 400 psi still doesn't push the water through in the way a spray nozzle at 200 psi would.

I've run stainless steel tools (with 02 jets, to be fair...not an 01) at 200 psi, and it really wets through the fabric.

I'd need to test that out for myself.

Is your scenario one where you're cleaning an oily synthetic fabric, or a durable cotton fabric that shouldn't brown, and has heavily imbedded soil?

I am often asked:

"Why do you always answer a question with a question?"

My answer:

"Do I?"

It might be more about the gpm rather than the pressure. You may want to install a flow control device like the sapphire tool. A lot depends on the spray pattern you achieve with the holes you are drilling in the tool.
