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
