The HOT-2-GO SK Series SK30005VH is a professional gas-powered hot water pressure washer that delivers 3,000 PSI at 5.0 GPM for contractors, fleet operations, agriculture, and oilfield crews who clean far from any power outlet. Because the engine drives both the pump and the 12V diesel burner, the machine needs no electrical hookup - you can take true hot-water cleaning power anywhere on a skid, trailer, or truck.
Built for these jobs
- Heavy degreasing - hot water up to 250 degrees F cuts grease, oil, and baked-on grime that cold water leaves behind.
- Fleet and heavy equipment washing - blast road film, mud, and grease from trucks, trailers, and machinery.
- Agriculture and oilfield cleaning - work where there is no power, with large fuel capacity for long run times.
- Facility and lot maintenance - the 5.0 GPM flow rinses large areas quickly.
Why the engine-driven hot-water design works
An industrial 479cc Vanguard twin-cylinder, electric-start engine powers the pump and the 12V diesel burner, so no electrical supply is needed in the field. A large 1/2-inch SCH 80 coil, stainless-steel wrapped, heats water up to 250 degrees F for maximum grease-cutting power. An industrial-rated belt-drive triplex plunger pump turns at lower RPM for cooler running and longer pump life, and a remote-mounted unloader with an external bypass loop keeps the pump cool during trigger-off. Large 8-gallon gas and diesel tanks deliver extended run times, and a burst disc, pressure relief valve, and flow-sensitive unloader protect the system.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the SK30005VH need an electrical outlet?
No. The Vanguard engine powers both the pump and the 12V diesel burner, so the machine runs with no external electrical supply. That makes it ideal for job sites, farms, and oilfields where there is no power.
How hot does the water get and why does it matter?
The stainless-wrapped 1/2-inch SCH 80 coil heats water up to 250 degrees F. Hot water dissolves grease, oil, and fats that cold water only pushes around, so you clean engines, equipment, and lots faster and with less detergent.
Why a belt-drive pump instead of direct drive?
The industrial belt-drive triplex pump turns at a lower RPM than a direct-drive pump, which runs cooler and lasts longer on demanding hot-water work. Combined with the external bypass loop on the unloader, it keeps the pump cool even during trigger-off.
Can it be trailer or truck mounted?
Yes. The SK30005VH is skid mounted and can be installed on a trailer or truck, or fitted to a wheel kit, so you can bring hot-water cleaning power right to the work.
