Honda WH15 1 1/2″ 98 GPM High Pressure Water Pump

Description

Honda WH15 1.5 Inch High-Pressure Water Pump, 57 PSI

The WH15 is a high-pressure centrifugal pump, built to push water uphill and through long hose runs to sprinklers and spray nozzles rather than simply to move volume. It reaches 57 psi and a 131 foot total head from a 118 cc GX120 engine, while still delivering up to 98 gallons per minute through 1.5 inch ports.

When Pressure Beats Volume

Watering a garden or orchard on a slope above the water source, feeding sprinklers from a pond, washing down equipment or supplying water to a hilltop stock tank all need pressure at the far end of the hose. A general purpose pump’s flow falls away quickly with height; the WH15 is built to hold it.

Pump Construction

The self-priming pump uses a rigid-mounted cast iron volute and cast iron impeller, with a carbon and ceramic mechanical seal. It primes in about 80 seconds at 16.4 feet and draws from a suction lift of up to 26 feet.

Fire Readiness on Rural Properties

Owners in dry regions often keep a high-pressure pump with a pond or tank for wetting down around buildings. Run it monthly through the season so it starts first time when it matters, and keep fresh fuel with it.

WH15 or WH20?

The WH20 raises pressure to 64 psi and flow to 119 gal/min with a larger GX160, for longer runs or more sprinkler heads.
