i am interested in buying a gasoline powered preassure washer, particularly a Troy-Bilt
3000 MAX PSI / 2.7 MAX GPM Pressure Wash. does anyone own one, or have any other recomendations for a different make or model. this one costs about $390.00

I don't have any info onthis pressure washer, but before buying it, consider storage space and how often you will use it. Sometimes it rather pays to rent it for a day or two.

Water Quality used for Pressure Washer?
Alex
How clean or "pure" does water need to be, to be used in a Pressure Washer?
Specifically: Is Lake Water okay to use through a portable pressure washer? (No google did not help. Plus google gives me headaches.)
INFO: So I have this idea to take a gas generator and my electrical power washer out to some land I own in the country. There is a concrete surface I want to clean, and was wondering if lake water (Frogs, some lily pads, drinking source for abundant wild life) would work properly (pass through the washer without causing long term damage)
I ask because this place is 10 miles from any type of clean public water. And I simply can not haul an estimated 40-160 gallons of water. The lake is a quarter mile from my work space, and with several 5 gallon drums.. Well you get the idea.
I'm not sure exactly how it works.. if the possible debris/algae would clog/break the washer... Or if i could just take it home afterwards and run regular water w/ bleach (or some cleaner t.b.d.).
SPECIFICS: I only need to use the power washer for a maximum of twenty minutes to remove algae/dirt from a 20'x20' concrete landing. At least 10 minutes would be worth it. I have read that depending on the psi of my washer.. That it could consume anywhere from 1-10 gallons a minute.
THANK YOU FOR ANY INFORMATION. Or if you can send me in the right direction to get some concrete answers I will gladly reward you best answer. Thanks just for reading.

you need to install a light filter unless not feeding from the bottom of water source - as long as no sand or dirt get in should be ok - sand or dirt sedemit is the only thing that burns them out - i use well water or creek or river water all the time - as long as no debre enters the chamber and the chamber is always primed with 35-60 psi of water before running engine on power washer - all is well - they do have internal screens that prevent sediment from entering - but once sedement enters the chamber - it burns up the bearings - and the impeller that pumps the water itself - thats the diffrence of a hot running half wore out pressure washer - as opposed to a brand new one - so either way some go some dont - i run power washers all the time from creeks streams - well water and city water - so go for it - just dont suck crap from the bottom is the key trick
