Hi all,
Looking to buy a pressure washer. Something that does 15 L/M atleast with a 3000 psi.
Can you recommend anyone who sells and who accepts finance options?
Thanks in advance
-
I have always used Rutland pumps, great machines and great service.
-
As above Ben at rutland pumps good prices and excellent service
-
Thank you for this. Are you aware if they do finance options?

Ok until you get a problem then it’s a nightmare sending it back to Ireland and very expensive
-
Yes..
That did cross my mind.
Hope honda's live up to there reputation.

Honda = bullet proof but your paying top money.
Lonchin - Also pretty bullet proof - much better on price
Lifan - Had these engines a year - also seem very reliable and at £220 - a steal - I now put this engine and pump/gearbox with all the extras (skid plate - unloader - connectors) for just £450 - thats a 13Hp engine - 21 LPM pump @ 200 BAR

Everyone I have spoken to apart from Q washers say you cannot get 21 lpm from a 13 hp engine it’s not powerful enough , have you measured the actual amount of water it’s supplying rather than taking for granted what a salesman has said ?

briggs and Stratton - never had the pleasure
oh yes - 21 LPM - no issues

Yes we have an 18 hp one it’s rated at 21 ltr but on full revs will supply 26 ltr , Briggs’ and Stratton the engine is a v twin and made by Mitsubishi it’s much quieter than a smaller engined Honda and uses a lot less fuel produces higher pressure at a lower rev range , I have had Honda ones in the past they are ok but won’t produce 21 ltr no way 18 is a mean average and we have had several of them .

Go on try spraying it into into a bucket for one muinit then measure it out bet it’s no ware near 21 ltr 😂😂😂😂 , I have had 4 of them and none were anyway near that , had one off Q washers he guarantee it would produce it as it had bigger inlet but it didn’t , he went very quite when we sent the video in , I contacted Honda uk and they said the 13 hp engine isn’t designed to supply 21 ltr although many claim it will supply that , it’s not powerful enough they suggested the GX 630 at 30 ltr and don’t run it flat out . So Evan Honda say it won’t do it , the only caveat I will add is this was 6 years ago but as far as ime aware nothing has changed .
Seriously Darren you do far more pw than we do get one and give it a go you will never go back to a noisy rattley Honda believe me , I do accept that the price per unit you are paying cannot be beaten though

So if you’re getting 18lpm from the 21 Honda do you get 12lpm from the 15 lpm Honda 🙈😂

No they will run15 no problem it’s just the engine isn’t powerful enough to supply 21 ltr

Only 4 😕
I've currently got 8 and had 12 over the last 9 years - I know a very good engineer who builds/repairs pressure washers and always does a test before suppling a finished machine
In the early days I had a q washers set up with twin feed and that never made 21 lpm as is suffered cavitation due to the sharpe bends in the pipe work leading into the pump another issue for you maybe too small a bore on your inlet feed which can starve the pump slightly
If I remember correctly a ws202 pump only needs10hp to deliver 21 lpm - I can't vouch for other makes

Yes we don’t do anything like the amount of PW that you do , but Honda said that the 13 hp model wouldn’t run a pump and produce 21 ltr per (http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/1679849788_9B80E6A9-B04F-41EA-BA1D-BD8D502EB1F1.jpeg)muinit ,it would run the pump but not produce 21 , they themselves recommended a bigger machine. I decided to give the B&S a go it’s an awesome machine not cheap I accept but it’s so much better than the Honda , I honestly don’t know how you get the set ups you do so cheap and get reliability , ours aren't van mounted they are all on trolleys as we don’t PW every day , and for roof cleaning like you do a high flow isn’t that necessary but we do mainly drives , car parks ware the higher flow is better for rinsing .

at least your set up is on a "barrow" style trolley not one of those silly little sack barrow L shaped things
Yes all mine are fixed in - they also have a ton of water weight pushing the water through 1" bore hose (not 3/4") this makes all the difference
