2nd post here… after extensive research and advice from my fellow power washers I have my eye on a 5.5 gpm 4000psi hot water skid from pressure pro.
I have sourced a trailer and buffer tank all i need are hoses and reels and ofcourse to piece it all together.
Has anyone any experiene with this unit or one with similar specs? I plan on doing residential surface cleaning and some commercial fleet and gas station jobs. Would this be a good starter? As always any advice is welcome.
Thanks everyone!
I doubt that unit has an udor. Also gpm is king. Unless you are a commercial giant I don’t think hot water is needed. I’ve done some really big commercial jobs and rented hot water units. Works great!
Buy an 8gpm unit. Then down the road if you really need hot water just buy a hot box to add on it. I could build an 8gpm/3000 and a hot box and still have money for dinner and a movie.
I bought one in 2009. The pump and motor finally died last year and i replaced both. I have replaced parts on the burner over the yrs but its still running and still makes hot water.
But i only paid 4000 for it when i originally bought it.
If you have a lot of houses that have well systems 8 gpm is not the best option unless you are caring 300 + gallons of water. We only use 5.5 gpm machines because we still do about 70 % residential and only 30 % commercial. this is something else to consider when buying a machine.
This is the same unit from pressure pro I have been using it for about a week i love it. I firmly believe in hot water pressure washing. I live in a pretty rural area and the 5.5 is perfect for that. Dont get me wrong my 10gpm machine is nice but it just wants to much water
