Default Hosepipe ban, power washer, water butt, pump - X-post

David W.E. Roberts wrote:
Hi,

cross posted to gardening and DIY as probably relevant to both :-)

My plans to power wash the flags at the back of my Berkshire property
have been thwarted by the hosepipe ban.

As far as I can tell, power washers don't use that much water.

So is it feasible to put a pump in a rain water butt to feed water to
the power washer?

Has anyone tried this?

TIA

Dave R


I bought a power washer for that very purpose last year. Could still do it
with the ban in place, but won't. Back to a bucket, scrubbing brush, and
Jif. Oh, and some knee pads
