Title: 12v water pump
Post by: Mike Halliday on April 07, 2020, 04:03:05 pm
What’s a long lasting, good quality 12v water pump?

I want to fit a water tank in my van with premixed moss killer then use a WFP hose reel & hose to apply it onto driveways.

I‘Ve seen some on eBay but I would rather get something quality that will last

What pressure/flow rate  would be best? I will be running it off the van battery but need a decent flow so I can spray a full driveway without it taking forever

What price are they?

I would disagree with that I’ve had flojet pumps pack up on me in the past Shurflo ones last years and years.

The Aquatec 100psi  from Gardiners are fine. They are branded as Gardiners I think they are about £78 plus VAT. I used to use Shurflo but not anymore.

I have run mine without a controller for at least three years. Cheap as chips.
