A 12V water pump is commonly used in water fed pole systems to deliver purified water from a tank to the brush head during professional window cleaning.
What is the difference between a water pump and a chemical pump?
Water pumps are designed to transport purified water, while chemical pumps use materials that are resistant to cleaning chemicals used during soft washing.
