      1" FPT Y-Strainer water filter: Includes 80 mesh filter, at least a 3' length of hose with crimped on PVC ends, a 3/4" grey PVC ball valve to easily clean filter without removing the bowl, clean hands or it will allow you to fill a bucket with water.

 *****No warranty over-tightening this filter. Cracking this filter is caused by over-tightening. No warranty*****

      145 PSI working pressure. Use non-drying liquid Teflon to install fittings into this filter. Entrained air in water in a pump will cause irreparable damage.

 ***Supply/suction hose inner diameter ID should be doubled compared to the pump inlet/suction port. For example: the General Pump TS2021 (HP5535) has a 1/2" inlet on either side of the bottom manifold of the pump. The pump should be supplied with 1" non-collapsible suction hose. 

      Need the whole plumbing kit? We supply this filter in a kit. If you have a 3-6 GPM pressure washer plumbed to a horizontal leg tank look for (SKU# PL-4-TA) or if plumbing to an IBC tote looks for (SKU# PL-4-TO). The kit includes everything you need to correctly plumb a pressure washer according to the Pump Guru, Rex! 

Have you ever wondered how to correctly plumb your power washer? 

       Mount the pressure washer as low to the surface as possible in relation to the supply port/bulkhead of the water tank. Remember, to use shock absorbing rubber pucks (SKU# 4542) on your skid L-brackets (1213) of the pressure washer. Most pressure washers can be converted from cart with wheels to skid units by removing the wheels and installing l-brackets for your unit available through us.

       Minimize the use of extra fittings. Do not use galvanized fittings or metal ball valves between your pump and water tank because they will likely corrode and flake little chunks into your pump valves leading to vibration and/or damage, avoid extra elbows. Do not use PVC pipe anywhere. PVC pipe can become brittle and doesn't tolerate the weight of a surface cleaner, ladder, or your body weight for long. If not installed correctly, air will find its way into your pump leading to manifold damage. Install components using non-drying liquid Teflon and never use Teflon tape. 

       Never adjust your unloader- The unloader should be set using a whip hose, high pressure ball valve, high pressure steel tee, snubber, and gauge to 200 psi above the operating pressure of the pump and left alone. Do not install check valves or any type of swivel fitting on the suction/supply hose assembly or air may become entrained causing extensive damage from cavitation.

       Working with non-collapsible hose can be challenging.  We have several heat guns and ratcheting PVC hose cutters to tame the hose. When installing the hose into hose barbs, first slide the hose clamp a few feet away from the cut end. Grab some SLO-MO-5 Soft Wash Surfactant for sodium hypochlorite, dish soap or shampoo and coat your finger or old toothbrush with a generous amount. Apply the soap to the inside several inches and to the barb end of the hose barb. Turn on the heat gun and hold the heat source about 3-4"in. away from the hose end while rotating the hose as you try to apply the heat as evenly as possible. Heat only until the hose turns shiny and releases a single plume of smoke. Turn off the heat gun and set it aside to cool. Install the barb into the hose end and push it down against the ground or vertical surface. Allow the end to cool naturally, move the hose clamp up about 1/16" or 1/8" from the end toward the thread and tighten securely. Install the hose clamp to allow you to access it easily in the future so that you do not have to struggle to use a tool on the clamp. 

       The unloader bypass hose that sends water back to the tank when you release the trigger on your gun should be installed using 3/8" or 1/2" kink resistant hose. The port should be installed so that the stream of water shooting into the tank does not point directly at the pressure washer suction/supply bulkhead. You don't want to create air bubbles in your supply water. The bypass hose running back to your tank will act as a back-up for your thermal relief valve mounted on the opposite side of your pump to the suction hose assembly. 

      Do not use Teflon tape on any fittings. Use medium, removable thread lock (SKU#5003) 10 ml or (SKU#5004) 50ml. Try not to use elbows or extra fittings when at all possible, minimize the use of quick connects. Install the chemical injector at least 3'ft away from the unloader to prevent back-siphoning of chemical into the internal components of the unloader. Always remove the chemical injector assembly when not in use. You can install a chemical injector bypass kit. 

Use a R2 or 2 (6000 PSI) wire jump hose on the high-pressure outlet of your unloader to your reel.

       Before purchasing a telescoping wand, try out some long-range nozzles such as #0020, #0025, #0030, #0035, #0040, #0050 and #0060 installed into female plugs. To improve your vertical reach with these nozzles, use them with a 6', 7', 8', 10' or 12' aluminum wand and a side handle (SKU#1536) for added control. 

       When using 8 GPM or more, use a 1/2"in ID high pressure jump hose to your reel, use 50'ft of 1/2"in ID high pressure hose coming off the reel and replace the 1/4"in ID high pressure hose on your surface cleaner with 3/8"in ID.

       We can custom cut and crimp your high-pressure hose to your desired length and ship them to you. ***Please, add it in the notes before purchasing***

I recently purchased a pressure washer from Pressure Washer Products, and the experience was fantastic from start to finish!

The quality of their products is top-notch.. Highly recommended!

Kerolos Mamdoh

The best pressure washing store hands down. Rex the owner and his team have a wealth of knowledge about the industry. Lori is always there to help you with what you need. I’ve saved alot of money over the years through them because they help to educate you on what products and equipment are best to buy for your specific set up/washing goals. Other places attempt to drain your bank account if you let them. Not here, that’s why they have customers for life

Jared Policandriotes

I recently bought a surface cleaner from PWP, and it's been a game-changer. Lori helped me find the right tips for my machine, and the results have been fantastic. Thanks, Lori!

Sheriff Khalifa

Lori was very helpful and got us out surface cleaner and recommended what tips to match our machine. Runs fantastic. She also recommended a chemical injector to try on our trailer and it has been another great upgrade. Lori knows her stuff and the price and shipping was reasonable!

Brent Batton

I am a new customer to this business and have been here three times. Each time I have received fantastic customer service. I am glad there is actually a local business around that deals specifically with pressure washers. Highly recommended.

Doug Williams

I love this store. Laurie and Rex/ Family have been a huge help in understanding aspects of the equipment and tools we use in this industry. I’ve learned lots from them. Also the pricing and amount of supplies the store has to offer is perfect for a quick trip to load up and head out.
