I have a small gas powered unit now i want a unit that puts out more flow i assume mine is about 2.5 gpm. Do i have to worry about not having enough water supply (volume) to supply a 3.5 to 4.0 gpm unit from a household supply. I am looking at the campbell / karcher/ or BE units with the 13hp honda. All in the 1200 bucks price range what do you suggest i see the be unit is 70 lbs more at 200lbs. i suspect the triplex pump is this worth the extra or is axial better.
Answer
As long as you are on city water, you should be fine on water supply. If you are on a well, this could be a problem, you would have to do the bucket test to see how much water you have.
In terms of units, any of those companies would be good units to look at. I would suggest going with a tri-plex plunger pump as well. This is going to be the better quality pump. Some other units to look at can be the DeWalt and Simpson models as well.
Thanks,
