    Hey every one I am starting off in the business and have a question. I have a 125 gallon water tank and am looking to hook it up to a pressure washer. I have heard of different methods but don't really know which way to go. anyone have a tak they have hooked up with pictures or a diagram that i could follow to set mine up, it will be going in a 6x10 enclosed trailer. Any suggestions would really help, thanks!

    so u need a pressure washer with a triplex pump.. this will insure that it pulls water from the tank , i have a cat pump and love it. as for the fittings i used 2 ball valves(pvc) and then pvc tubes mine are 3/4 since thats the outlet size.

    when the pressure washer is running make sure the cap on the h20 tank is off so it gets more flow

    i have one ball valve for filling bucks an the extractor.

    make sure you make your floor water proof since the tanks will leak a little.
    i have heard of guys drilling holes in the floor and added tubbing to the exhaust of the gen an PW so the exhaust doesn't stay in the trailer.

    its really up to you how to set it up an make sure the tank is over the axle!!

    have fun making the trailer nice!!!
