Realistically, you don't need majority of this to get started. This is a setup you should invest in once the business takes off. To start, you realistically only need a pressure washer which comes with different tips you need, a cheap surface cleaner attachment, a long garden hose, a long pressure washer hose. Once you get steady business and dollars rolling in, use that to re-invest in equipment like this. Great video to show the end-goal though as far as equipment!

Guys if you buy a surface cleaner, make sure to get the proper nozzles for it based on your gallons per minute. If you are running a 4gpm machine, get 2.0 nozzles for both your nozzles. This will allow your washer to do a good job and maintain proper water pressure to the surface your cleaning.

I've heard the ratio is 1:4 - For every 1 gallon per sec from your pump, your surface cleaner can widen 4 inches. So a 4 gpm would max out with a 16" cleaner.

Have now used this to clean house siding and it performed well kzread.infoUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX I also bought some wand extensions which enabled higher washing without needing a ladder. I recommend both. This unit arrived quickly, was easy to assemble (only had to attach the handle), and arrived in perfect condition. The only very slight downgrade from a perfect score is the design has a low handle and requires pulling from the side. My old washer was an upright model, while this one is more horizontal. Other than that, it's perfect for my needs. It has a great deal of pressure and more easily cleaned the house siding, porch rails and concrete than did my older model. The engine is a bit louder, as well, but the total time to clean was reduced by the more powerful spray. Did I mention it starts on the first or second pull every time?!! I am definitely happy with this model.

Thanks, just bought about 500 bucks worth of the stuff you linked. Hmm haven't heard of the whipline, hopefully it works lol. In this case I won't have to keep removing the pressure washer from the van if I understand correctly? As far as I understand with this setup I connect to the customers water with a hose then the whipline connects from the hose reel to the pressure washer so I won't have to move & remove the pressure washer everytime? Just not sure if only 100 ft of the pressure washing hose will suffice.

Hey Austin, great video and I cannot thank you enough for sharing your knowledge. I have couple of questions and others are more than welcome to chime in. I understand you need Flexzilla hose, grey non marking high pressure hose and a whipline. I am trying to understand the structure here. Does Flexzilla hose connect to homeowner's tap and goes to pressure washer? Then you have a whipline connecting pressure washer and the grey non marking high pressure hose? Hope that makes sense. Also, on your 4th list of materials you mentioned cupplinks (spelling) that go on each side of the pressure washing gun. Could you or someone elaborate a bit on cupplinks? Thank you in advance!

Thank u

Thank you for a very informative video. Will it be possible to change the Surface washer tip size to 25020 on the Surface washer that you recommend and use the 2.5 GPM pressure washer?

I'm just a homeowner. I've rented a gas pressure washer before and recently I bought an electric pressure washer from Costco. I have to say that the pressure and the volume of water from the rented one cleans at a quicker pace. It ran at a higher pressure and it sprayed out more water. The electric one I bought can clean the same drive way and side walks but it takes quite a bit more time. Even when I'm looking at videos of someone using good professional gas pressure washers it's obvious the volume of water being sprayed out is quite a bit more than what an electric one does. I guess if one were to buy a 240v powered electric pressure washer it would speed up the cleaning. But the price increase will be at least 4 to 5 times higher.

The 4gpm one you linked states in the description that it has the triple AAA pump that advised against. But your video states it has a general pump.

Hi Austin, Do you have a video on what chemicals and supplies to buy with this? I am very interest in doing this on side.

All the fittings you say to order and nothing to connect the hose reel to the pressure washer intake. Nice.

Some great points for people starting out. I personally started with a 5gp 4000psi gx390 because the only upgrade from here is a gx690 with a boiler. It is great in it can do everything efficiently and 15lpm for me is what comes out the taps. I have to say though that since i got the xjet, i wont be looking back to a venturi (downstream) injector. The reason is because the venturi is set to 5:1 ratio. So if your chemical is 12.5% concentration, then the best you could apply is 2.5% strength. Whereas xjet, you can insert proportioners that allows for a change in % from 2:1, 3:1, 4:1 onwards to 250:1. This versatility far outweighs the fixed 2.5%. Also to note that when you get a honda, nake sure it has ceramic triplex plunger pump, something like a comet. Also it comes as direct drive, but ideally gearbox/belt driven is better for P.W. longevity. Everything else your have said is spot on though.

What chemical do you use to pretreat/post treat concrete /sidewalks ? Can you post where to buy it and what is a good chemical for washing houses and aluminum siding ?

One thing witch is 5he biggest thing you didn't mention is the side of hoses and whips they make all the difference the bigger the better other than that your spot on but the size of hoses will make or break anyone's set up go big or go home I run 250 ft no issues on a 4 gpm I run the fattest hoses in can find
