It sounds like maybe the distributor you purchased
your equipment from sold you an 8 GPM pressure washer,
and a vacuum filtration unit rated at 4.6 GPM.

That could be a challenge.

Feel free to call me I can possibly offer some suggestions to
help you get better results.

Thanks mark

I upgraded my flitration system by cutting out all the float switches and small pump crap and installing a submersible pump into the purple box. It works so much better, and why filter anyway? the sediment settles into the tapered tank bottom, and the rest gets run into the sewer cleanout. The dealer told me i could recycle the filtered dirty water thru my pump, but i vetoed that, so the filters are just unnecessary expense.

Sounds like a PVAC would have been a better choice
for you. Or maybe the new AZV88.

Alkota has a new portable reclaim unit although it is
extremely pricey.

I will try to post some data on it.

P.S. What are you powering the vacuum and sump pump with?

If you eliminate the high level float switch, you could short circuit
your vacuum motor, in the event of a pump out problem.
The purpose of the high level float switch is to turn off the vacuum
if water level gets too high in tank.
