High Performance, Long Lasting Pumps
Performs Beyond your Needs
When you need extra pressure to push water far and high, the NorthStar® High-Pressure Water Pump delivers. Ideal for sprinkler systems, washing heavy-duty equipment and for providing the water pressure needed to fight fires in remote areas. To ensure the best performance, longer life and smoother operation, we gave this heavy-duty water pump an aluminum impeller and a cast iron volute.
Handles the Toughest Jobs
The high-end silicone carbide mechanical seals in this NorthStar® High-Pressure Water Pump are harder, tougher and stronger than common aluminum oxide seals and have superior resistance to corrosion, wear and heat so you can use it in all kinds of situations. It also has our cutting-edge check valves that hold a prime when the pump is not running to quickly get you back up and pumping.
Built Tough
Because jobsites can be dangerous and accidents happen, we knew you'd want to protect your pump. This is why it is has a fully welded rugged steel roll cage, complete with DuPont® Black Wrinkle TGIC Polyester electrostatic finish for extra durability. It gives the pump maximum protection at the jobsite and while transporting. The wide base gives rock-solid stability.
Proven and Reliable Power
Industry Leading Engineering
Because you need a pump that you can rely on, turning to the world's largest manufacturer of engines to power our NorthStar High-Pressure Water Pump was an obvious choice. The Honda GX270 engine gives you the industry-leading fuel efficiency, quiet operation and most importantly, power that you need to get the job done.
Easy to Work With
The precision-engineered components that come together to form this NorthStar High-Pressure Water Pump's Honda GX270 engine let it run with less vibration and less noise, so they're a lot better to be around than some other engines. They're also built to last with minimal maintenance, so you'll stay on the job with less trouble.

Is it safe to use antifreeze to "winterize" this pump in an exposed weather environment? If so, what is recommended concentration?
1 answer-
NorthStarExpert31· 4 years ago
For winter storage the pump only needs to be completely drained. A propylene glycol type antifreeze can be used if desired per the chemical manufacturers instructions.

Looks like a great design. What is the fuel-consumption rate per hour? I hope to be able to run it at 3/4 throttle.
1 answer-
NorthstarExpert12· 4 years ago
There are several factors which can influence the consumption rate, so that specification is not given by the engineers. It is capable of running at 3/4 throttle.

Of these 3 pump models, 106471, 54798, 34351, which will put out the most water and with the highest pressure. Looking to protect a 2 story house and out buildings will need 200' of hose. Thanks

NorthstarExpert29· 5 years ago
Item #106471 will have the highest flow rate and can accommodate 200' of hose as it has 263' max total head. Please see our item #49641 for a 50' hose (can be connected together to create longer hose) that can be used with this sprayer.
