In short
Water helps suppress dust. With SBS you can mix water with SBS soda or crushed glass in the tank. Alternatively, connect a tap to an inline water adapter fitted in the hose immediately before the nozzle. The adapter introduces water at the end of the hose.
Water connections at the nozzle
The third option is a water nozzle with its own inlet, connected directly to the tap. The fourth is a water adapter at the nozzle outlet, compatible with selected round HV nozzles. Before quoting a wet job, agree the water supply, the area to be protected and collection of wet residue.
At a demonstration, compare how each connection affects hose handling and the arrangement of the workplace. A site with a convenient tap and a site where the medium is mixed in the tank require different preparation. Include collection and drying time in the handover plan.
