12v vs gas pump

Zach Maynard · SoftWash Systems Certified Applicator

I have always been a fan of 12 volt since you have to have a compressor with you at all times and its loud and takes up a bunch of room. Not too mention having to have gas on hand etc. etc.
I push the "gas engines equal too much pressure"

Look at the cost and weigh your other options. You should be able to fully convert to 12 Volt for around $300 including the battery.

hey Jayson how long did that pump last you. How many properies did you spray. And did you flush it out after each and every use-age

It lasted a year. I almost never cleaned it out! Prob why it failed. I also got it used so I don't know how old it was.

Jason,

In our sales pitch to customers we HEAVILY market against anything you have to turn a key or pull a chord. These are usually pressure washers. It is not worth the exposure in my opinion to have a gas powered anything (except for vehicle) on the job site because SoftWash Authorized Companies have been trained to expose the possibility those are pressure washers and that they may damage the roof.
