You were able to swap that out with your 5.5?

What engine & HP are you running?

You can swap it out with the lower Hp engines but you sacrifice pressure for more water flow. Those 8gpm suck the water tanks down quick but make a hell of a difference cleaning

That is cool. A 8GPM is totally where is at, that is until I tried the 12gpm...

The problem with the 12 is it sucks the water that much more quickly!!! Got to have some good water pressure.

Once you go to 8 GPM you don't want to go back to a 5.5 GPM unit. Just the speed alone, time is $$$.

You should see how fast the water drops when I run both the 10.6 gpm pump and the 5.6 gpm pump at the same time. I get paid by the hour on all my jobs, no need for this much volume unless I need to be somewhere else.
