The forum Karen’s will be with you shortly lol. Just you wait.
Is that an udor? And if so will that 390 push a 5gpm udor? From what I’ve seen on their sight it requires 17 hp.
What say ye my good man? How much for the nag and peasant!?
Quite a few guys have put a 5.5 gpm on a GX390. Although, you’ll only get about 2500 psi before adding in loss of psi for hose length, fittings, etc.
Ole George squeezes them in discreetly, blink and you’ll miss it lol.
You called?
It absolutely would, you’ll get 5.5gpm with a 5hp attached to it, the psi you won’t. At 17hp you will be around 3500 psi.
It seems to be under control for now lol.
Thank you @marinegrunt and @MuscleMyHustle. I plan on upgrading my setup next year and was debating on building a 8gpm or using my existing set up and just buy an udor gear drive. Does the 2,500 psi fair pretty good for flat work?
I personally wouldn’t want to use it for flat work. If I didn’t do much of it and, only residential, it would probably work. It’s perfect if you mainly do house washes and maybe a driveway here or there. You might just have to pre treat a little more often on certain drives. You have to figure after 200’ of hose you’re already down to 2200 psi. If I were you I’d still build an 8 gpm.
You can get away with it I suppose, plenty do. I think you’ll always have that feeling at the back of your head that it can be a little cleaner though, wether it’s factual or psychological I don’t know. Great for house washing though. 8gpm paired with a gx690 is a great all round money making setup if l you don’t have the means or room for both.
