I hope you can advise if this pump would realistically operate in the capacity I am tasked. I would like to pump loose sludge mixed with leaves and small sticks from around my dock located on a fresh water lake, and discharge the sludge at a drop point in the yard. The lift should not be any more than 10-12 feet and from suction to discharge would be about 50 feet. Could you offer any advice for using this pump for such a task?
good evening Rob I know you might not be able to answer this question but do you happen to know of any good online Canadian stores for pressure washing

Stones 1-2+" can cause issues. But in general it should handle it fine
Hi Rob,
There are many different orifice sizes on these sludge suckers. 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 etc. What is the best one for 8gpm machine?
Totally honest. I had no clue there were other options.
@@Cleanpowerwash Got cha. Gonna call one of the pressure washing stores Monday to find out the difference in orifice sizes.
Bigger orifice makes sense and is easily swapped out
Which one did you go with Yanis? I’m contemplating the same thing...
@@luckycollins1431 Orifice needs to match your GPM. So for 8gpm unit I got 8.0
I called pressure washing supplier and asked.

Only Canadian business I use is Fin Print for our shirts.
Can you use this with a garden hose
Not this version, but there are ones that will work with a garden hose.
@@Cleanpowerwash
Helpful suggestion
Can you give me a recommendation?
Just search Amazon or Google. I think even lowes and home depot sell one for garden hoses. Very slow though.
I use a str8 wand. Problem solved.
We do it this way so we can have it run continuously as well.
@@Cleanpowerwash yeah more flexible too. 👍
what is a str8 wand?
where can i get a different hose? mine is too small to fit
Tractor supply, pressure washing vendors etc
