11 to 1 downstreamer

ok I did the bucket test with my downstreamer. I have a 4 gal min machine and It took 2min 45 sec to downstream one gallon from a bucket. so 1 gallon every 15 seconds x 2min 45 sec = an 11 to 1 d/s. so if i shoot 12 gallons total, 11 water and 1 sh what % of this mix is sh? would it be 8.3% sh and 91.3% water

and who said p washing was easy?

No. What is your mix? If you are using 12% sh and making a 50-50 sh mix you have 6% in your pail. Now divide 6% by 11 your ds water amount and you have the strength of the sh that is being applied. You are at about .5% sh hitting the house. Which is about where you want to be for house washing.

Now don't ever worry about this again.
