I am looking for a pressure pump(washer) that generates 1500-5000 psi applying 12V DC battery. How many batteries required ?
Can I buy such pumps in the market ? please give more information on it.

Answer
My pressure washer has a 5 horsepower motor and creates about 200 psi. The short answer is that car starter motors create 5 to 10 hp for a short while but get hot fast. One battery will do the job for a very short while. The easier way is to use an electric washer, convert the 12 vdc to 120vAC with an inverter and wash away. The amount of batteries will depend on how long you want to operate at high pressure. The more the better. Can you buy such a pump, sure, convert a small home electric unit. Another good source for this stuff is West Marine, check their website and they have a great tech staff and no I don't work there.

Is a PSI pressure washer powerful enough to clean a deck and siding on a house? I want to prep my deck for painting and also want to wash the siding on the house. Thanks

Answer
â¢1500 through 1850 PSI â suggested best for cleaning decking, patios, sidewalks, or garage doors


â¢2000 through 3000 PSI â propose using this for cleaning larger decks, such as marina piers, siding, stucco, or fences
