    Newbie Questions: Regulator/Unloader and Check Valves

    I think this guy was comparing the no load state of a properly functioning unloader running in bypass versus the constant load state of a regulator. If so, he is correct.

    What's with these unloaders?

    I.B., I'd be careful with the Suttner regulators. These valves have a swedged ball in piston design. The ball can fall out, lock-up and blow up something. Also, this valve uses a fat o-ring and backing ring. The constant operation will where this out. These valves were designed as temporary...

    non heated extractor

    Oh Danny boy, the marginal amp draw of a 200 psi machine versus a 100 psi machine is 1 amp. The same machine is available with 200 psi and the 1000W heater, and does not pop a 15 amp circuit. There are manufacturers that trick out extractors with 1500 and 2200 watt heaters with higher pressure...

    non heated extractor

    The extractors with the Shur-Flo or Flojet pumps (100 psi type) do not really provide the deep cleaning because these pumps are so weak and cannot generate any real pressure. Professional carpet cleaners use extractors with higher performance pumps like Pumptec. Your customers will be much...

    All these people described seem to think they are victims of something. Just a thought.:)

    Attendance at the ICA Show

    I have been told and shown a report from ICA that has the attendance at 1/3 of past shows at this point. However, they used to count possible attendance instead of actual registrations. For example, every exhibitor has a maximum # of badges they are allocated and it was previously counted as all...

    Obama dollar coins are here!!!

    Is it 2 faced? Does it have an image of Bill Clinton on the back? (Since his Administration is Clinton II) Does it promise to be worth a 1/2 dollar for 95% of us? Is it of foreign origin? Oh wait, it is a "1/2" dollar..... This is meant to be funny.:D

    Paraplate Guns have defects

    Stick with the Hypro gun. I think it is made by MV (MV920). These used to be quality products, but MV was combined with Arrowline (crap stuff, IMO) and who knows what you are going to get anymore. There are no good guns anymore because all the good stuff was too expensive when the Italian...

    ONe Way to better understand how we got to here

    Bravo. BTW, this article does show the fallacy of a decision to eliminate political talk. 'Them guys are everywhere...even where you don't want them to be'.

    A little bit of humor to start or end your day

    This is too true to be funny. The next time you hear a politician use the word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about whether you want the 'politicians' spending...

    The Truth Revealed

    The author is Ayn Rand, not Ann Ryan. You may be right about the coming nationalization of energy. What better way to control people and justify war in the name of national security.

    The latest Global Warming info

    It appears our fate is sealed - they all have found 'religion' . No matter which way you look, everyone has sold their soul to the doom sayers. There does not seem to be much hope for our liberty or wallets.

    In God we trust? Here is something that sums up the religion aspect. http://www.dailystar.com.lb/article.asp?edition_id=10&categ_id=5&article_id=92407 Unfortunately, he has already drank the Kool-Aid.

    The latest Global Warming info

    Oh no! More people that have issues.... BTW, this nut case received the Nobel Prize - it was co-awarded to him and Al Gore. http://www.nysun.com/opinion/foggy-science-in-london/77404/ Why can't these skeptics just go away and let the piper lead the lemmings off the cliff.....

    The Simple Pleasure of Yardwork

    The Zen of a perfectly mowed lawn is wonderful. I often try to change the direction of the mowing path to see how it affects the look. If I do a certain diagonal my yard looks more spacious vs the side to side. I sometimes think about the old Japanese Zen garden masters and their raking of white...

    Good news about Sen. Ted Kennedy !

    I think it is wrong to wish ill to others. I hope Ted lives a longer life. Remember, the joy in seeing Republicans fall is that they stand for something. The Democrats have fought for years to legalize or soften the rules/laws on so much of what goes on in our society. The Democrats are not so...

    Interesting Islam info.

    Much like Alfred Nobel, I believe the inventors of Christianity and Islam doctrines, fables and dogmas had peaceful intentions. Modern day followers of Islam have perverted the 'teachings' into a monolithic force that accounts for a disproportionate amount of distress in societies not...
