This time of year marks the slow spray season for many of our customers, but December is traditionally the busiest month of the year for the shipping and delivery industries. All those Christmas presents, holiday cards and gift baskets have to reach their destinations on time. The holidays also mean a short work week and more time off to spend with family. As grateful as we are for this time, we also understand this can quickly become inconvenient if you are in dire need of replacement sprayer parts or need advice from one of our savvy Customer Service Technicians.

We want to make sure you are aware of our business hours during the holidays. So if you plan on placing an order with us, please take note of our special hours. Below is a list of the days we’ll be closed:

Hypro diaphragm pumps are recommended for spraying herbicides, pesticides, liquid fertilizers, and many other hard-to-handle fluids. The Hypro D30 is one of Hypro's most popular medium pressure diaphragm pumps. Its low cost maintenance, and almost wear-free operation help make it the ideal choice for a wide variety of spraying jobs. This is definitely one of our top selling pumps, and the preferred choice for several of our small to medium-sized Kings Sprayers® models.

Recently, our Customer Service Technicians have fielded a few calls regarding clogged strainers. While it may seem like a basic sprayer maintenance issue, it's often overlooked by even large companies with fleets of trucks and multiple sprayer units. 

So, we've updated this helpful post to emphasize the importance of good spray equipment maintenance.

Clogging can cause a number of expensive problems on your sprayer. The fix to this common issue is simple and economical: properly install and service your strainer. The strainer in your sprayer is one of the easiest parts to maintain, however it's probably the most overlooked one. A clean and properly sealed strainer will allow proper flow to the pump and contribute to a longer pump life. For most applications, a standard Buna Gasket is adequate. However, if you find that you are replacing the Buna Gasket frequently, a Viton Gasket is a more durable option.
