question on converting pressure washer to a sewer jet
Hi all,
I currently have a briggs and stratton 1808 pressure washer which comes with 50 ft of 3/8 hose. 10 hp 4 gpm with 3400 psi.
I need to turn my pressure washer into a sewer jet for a 4 inch main sewer line I have that is backed up. My question is this, I know it is not reccommended to go over a 50 ft hose with my pressure washer, and I will lose pressure with the longer hose but with all that said do you guys think I am better off going with a 1/4 x 100 ft or 3/8 x 100 ft of hose.
I matched up the sewer jet nozzles based on my specs of my briggs and stratton pressure washer but I Am worried that with 1/4 x 100 hose I will be losing too much pressure??
Any thoughts or opinions would be greatly appreciated!
thanks in advance,
Harvey
