Hi everyone, this is Dennis from Manassas, VA an old (is 70 old) retired PW.

Am setting up a Soft Wash System to wash our home as well as some of our neighbors homes. The initial plan is to use a 40 gallon garbage can with a plastic bag liner as a water reservoir fed by our garden hose With the “mix” going into a ten gallon plastic tank. Using a 110 volt 5 gallon pump with a 12’ strainer hose to draw water / mix and a 100’ 1/2” hose attached to a 1/2” ball cock with a 4
Way J-Rod Tip Holder for Soft Wash, 1/4 Inch Quick Connect to spray/rinse house and roof.

Does this set-up need an accumulator? Will a 5/8 water hose work instead of 1/2” hose? Any recommendation on pump?

Great site, Thanks Dennis
 
Hi Ron am great thank you for asking. How about you?
Have not gotten any input about accumulators, hoses or pumps.
Are you aware of an inverter that will work well with a 12 volt pump?
Thanks for reaching out, Dennis
