Prepping for 8 GPM order

Hey guys,
I’m ordering the VB8035HGEA306 (8GPM 3500PSI HONDA with GP Pump) pressure washer from Jason @ KEC on Monday and I wanted to be prepared for the order since I live in Canada I want to order everything one time so I have it and I’m ready to roll for summer. So far I have on my list:

  • Soft wash J rod nozzles for 8GPM
  • HUDSON float valve
  • Water filter (pre-pump)
  • BIGGER tips for my mosmatic SC 21" and 12"

I already have some Fresh wash coming and gutter grenade but I’m sure I am missing a few things.

As for the by pass line and fittings for that I think I can get those local along with the filter but any other tips or tricks to make this purchase seamless would be greatly appreciated!
so excited for 8 GPM. Everyone on this forum I thank you so much for all your help and knowledge. I’m on this APP 100 times a day constantly searching and learning from all of you experts.

congrats man I bought a 8gpm 3000 from him last year

here is what you could also use

Ball Valve

If you don’t have hose reel and need to save some dough get some of those U shaped ones from Jason Ive bought several of them and they hold up good they go for around 90-100 for a 200 foot capacity.

Extra Orings (not having these can kill a whole days worth of work.

Extra couplers plugs DS injector extra jrod set because they disappear ever know and then

Ok sweet, I have a pretty good existing set up from the hot water machine I have now. I was more thinking to accommodate the bigger flow rate and process.

As long as you have the filter Lowes will have all the stuff you need to plumb the tank. Just go in there with what you have and tell them you need to go from point A to B what parts do I need.

Ok perfect… I’m in Canada so no Lowes :frowning: but I do have some great local guys I get all my plumbing from. Thanks fir the tip on a back up J rod though it would be a pain to wait for another one to arrive if I lost ur. Does anyone use Viton (red) seals? They are great for chems and high heat situations.
