pressure washer water pump image
Lee Walden
OK so i will be starting a mobile detail business pretty soon. Need advice on the tank supply hook up;
The water tank will be a 210 gallon tank on my pickup bed, The pressure washer is a task force 1600psi, 1.5gal a min electric pressure washer (will be upgrading soon). What would be the best way to hook up this set up and would i need a separate pump or should gravity do the job?
Answer
Gravity should do the job.

How many gallons/ litres of water required to wash an suv using pressure washer?
Could some please tell me the quantity of water required to wash a mid sized suv like Toyota FJ Cruiser or Nissan Xterra using a medium sized pressure washer(Karcher)?
Many thanks in advance.

I could answer more certainly if you listed the gallons per minute on your pressure washer but I used to clean industrial batteries with a pressure washer. I had a 30 gallon tank and that would last for quite a while. I think you would probably use about 10 gallons of water to wash an SUV if you're talking about spraying it down well, sponging everything, spraying off the soap, then spraying down the tires and rims.
If you're thinking of using a water tank keep in mind that some pressure washers don't work well without water pressure and all pressure washers have trouble starting without water pressure. The pump will pull more water in while its running but if it has air in it it won't pull water. you can cheat by putting the water tank higher than the pump. and depressing the trigger when the washer is off. that allows water to flow into the pump.
