I was thinking of the same thing. It will make alot more noise than the
pumps made for the systems, unless you were to by the belt drive pumps. As
for puting to much water out, I beleive that will not be a problem if you
hook a regultaor up to it. Most of the commercial pumps go up to 60 gal.
per min. for large applications. You could regulate it down to 1 gal. per
min.. But the noise I beleive is the bad part and also not sure of the
continious duty cycle on that preasure washer motor. If you have
researched more since your last post let me know.

It occurred to be, why cant I just use an electric pressure washer
(800
PSI
units which can be purchased for about 99 dollars) as mister
system pump?(
with some modifications likely).
Any other suggestions for an alternative pump?

I saw a fan for sale with a mister built in behind the fan, maybe
google for it, a power washer is noisy and puts out to much water.

That's the point, I want to add pressure to an existing outdoor system
with
about 20 nozzles.
