Questions & Answers

Questions

1–10 of 29 Questions  
Sort by:

  1. Is it possible to add a remote start stop switch?

    1. Yes, I would hire an electrician for safety.

      Helpful?

    2. It is possible to add a remote start/stop switch, but any modification from the original factory specifications would void the warranty.

      Helpful?

  2. can this unit be used with dual purpose wand for chemical spray?

    1. This NorthStar electric cold water stationary pressure can be used with a dual purpose wand like our item # 43402 with the trigger gun item # 43530.

      Helpful?

    2. Yes You can. I have been using mine with a dual purpose wand for the last 12 years with zero issues.

      Helpful?

  3. how much PSI would be lost by adding more hose such as 100' or more

    1. It's hard to say exactly. A hard-core engineering nerd could calculate it out for you, but this engineering nerd guesses about 10-15%. Not to mention, it would depend whether the hose was laid out straight or bent. Unless you need absolutely maximum pressure, I wouldn't worry about it.

      Helpful?

    2. This pressure washer includes a 50' hose. An additional 50' hose can be added(100' total) without experiencing any loss in PSI output. Hose lengths beyond 100' will cause a drop in PSI. A distinct formula to determine exactly how much PSI is lost for hoses longer than 100' is not available.

      Helpful?

  4. Is there a stand available?

    1. I do not believe there is a stand that can be purchased separately. I simply left it on the pallet it came on. Makes it easy to pallet jack it to another location.

      Helpful?

    2. A stand is not available for this stationary pressure washer.

      Helpful?

  5. can you drain the pump after use to keep from freezing

    1 answer

    1. At this time, we do not offer an electric pressure washer with an automatic shut-off.

      Helpful?

    1 answer

      Helpful?
