Obsessed Garage Active 2.0 Pressure Washer set up

After about 3 months I finally got my OG pressure washer set-up up and running. I only have 15A outlets in my garage so I went with the Active 2.0 over the Kranzle that needs a 20A. I always wanted a pressure washer in general, but when I saw the insanely heavy gas powered thing my dad had it turned me off to them for a long time assuming that's how they all were. It would have been a huge hassle to even get his to my house.

Enter OG and Matt's set up. As he said in an interview - he sells solutions as opposed to products. I certainly never would have come up with this set up. I had a friend and his plumber nephew come over and help me and we (they really) ran water from my basement through the garage wall and to the PW. We (they, lol) ran PEX-B from the basement around the edge of the garage. Also added a bucket filler hose off the side. I'd never done any of this before so the friends and family help was wonderful and I LOVE the set up! I can finally wash my cars at home and take my time doing it. I also added some garage speakers and a power cable reel. I was going to use Cox power reel, but it had a 20A plug and was $400 more than the $95 one I got that will be more than plenty for my needs. And the power cable is even blue to match all of the PW stuff as well as my car to boot.

Also the cheap accessory I didn't know I needed - the little thing that goes under the wheels to keep the hose from getting stuck. Also still working on my stock of microfiber towels.
