I bought a zero g style hose and used it for two jobs and I noticed the same thing. Going to go back to a regular garden hose

@jonboysprowash7845 Жыл бұрын

I don’t blame you. A hose is a simple fix compared to burning up a pump.

Looks like the black breather cap is not on it. Did it come with the black breather cap? Not to say it’s not crap

@jonboysprowash7845 Жыл бұрын

It only came with this the cap that was on it. ThTs not to say that it was right. It didn’t have a thermal relief valve when I got it.

On my primary business machines I have GP, LOTS of hours and never had a single issue. I have a AAA pump on 1 machine that is 2.5gpm and 2 that are 2.8gpm and had no issues with them but they have very few hours on them...and I don't trust them at all. Normally, when someone with a few years in this industry says something is not commercial grade...that is probably what you will find to be true. What you have always heard about other things holds true with pressure washing equipment...you get what you pay for!

@jonboysprowash7845 Жыл бұрын

That is true. I’d rather spend more on the front end and know I have a quality product instead of cheaping out and always wondering when it’s going to break.

I HAVE THE SAME PUMP IT WAS MADE IN China. They put that on the underside of the pump so that you don't see it until after you have to work on it. they are made with cheap metal that will rust within about two years, and also a lot of cheap plastic. They are junk.

All of those AAA pumps are Chinese made they're only good for about a year to two years after that they're garbage I had the same problem that you did I just put a heavy-duty AR pump on and I've had it on her for five years now never had an issue with it yet but everybody who's had those AR has had some real negative comments the guys locally around here that bought their pressure washer from Lowe's or home Depot have had nothing but problems with the AAA pumps they are garbage
