Graco Reactor 3 Models: E-30 and E-20 Overview|Graco Reactor 3 Models: E-30 and E-20 Overview
By Kevin MaloneGraco has been a big name in the spray foam world ever since it unveiled its revolutionary Reactor series. With a dedicated team of experts continually working to improve upon their already great ideations, progress has always been on Graco's agenda, too. Since then, the Reactor 2 series brought even more improvements to contractors, integrating feedback regarding downtime and maintenance.
Now, in 2022, Graco has once again taken the feedback from Reactor 2 users to create the latest generation of spray foam equipment in the Graco Reactor 3 series. This complete system, from pump to reactor, is intelligent, efficient, and equipped with all the bells and whistles today's contractors expect. Since the Reactor E-20 and Reactor E-30 are the most popular due to their versatility and quality, we will give you a rundown on how they look in the Graco Reactor 3 family.
Across-the-Board Improvements
All Graco Reactor 3 proportioners are equipped with improvements that respond to feedback from previous-generation Reactor users. User-friendliness, convenience, maneuverability, and efficiency are all enhanced by significant changes. Meanwhile, the features that spray foam contractors have loved remain the same. After all, why reinvent the wheel? The following improvements apply to the whole family of Reactor 3 spray foam machines, which include the E-20, E-30, E-XP1, and E-XP2.
