so what if I’ve put a bigger motor on that pump will I get better flow?
@AdvancedSoftwashLLC17 минут бұрын
Could go to the 2 inch if you want more flow but it comes down to your restriction in pipes how much flow you will get

Great idea and build worse case just swap out to an AR45 gas pump all other components are rated, thinking the SH will eat that pump up quickly? The impeller and seals are rated for water , not SH or chem? Please Sir do a future video telling us how long in time/how many jobs it held up for? Might still be worth it! Rinse it well after each use is obvious. Best Regards Rich

Tried this a few years ago.. it worked great for about 45 minutes then it literally ate a hole through the aluminum pump.. used a 70 psi pressure relief valve back to tank (we use a batch tank for anything SH).. Also had a new 2" Pacer chemical pump which we then tried (we used 2" pumps to spray asphalt sealer so we had a backup on the shelf) the Pacer worked amazing but had to be reduced and play with the return to tank valve to bypass properly.. ..

I used the same exact machine 4 years ago... The only problem is when you let off the gun, it keeps trying to pump. If you had a way to bypass this, it would be great. I hooked up a 2-inch fire hose, too it and washed soap3d down a 7000 of house in 30 minutes. I had help with the hose. But then I hooked up a 3/4 hose and it worked better but it still had no bypass. A bypass would be ideal.
@AdvancedSoftwashLLC2 ай бұрын
Not sure what you mean it keeps trying to pump. The pump is a centrifugal pump, it doesn’t build up more pressure the longer you are off trigger. Bypass are always ideal but I haven’t had any issues yet. I was considering moving to 3/4 hose, but was worried it would be more annoying weight wise…
