The BE Pressure HP-2013HR is a 2-inch high-volume water transfer pump powered by a Honda GX390 389cc commercial OHV engine, rated for 140 gallons per minute and 330 feet of total head lift. It is engineered for contractors and facility crews who need to move serious volumes of water quickly: construction dewatering, jobsite trash-water removal, landscape and agricultural irrigation, light flood-control work, and fire-suppression top-off at remote pump sites where a tank or pond is the only practical source.
Use Cases
The HP-2013HR is sized for crews who run a transfer pump multiple times per week and need a Honda-grade engine that starts cold and runs through a full work day. Common use cases include:
- Construction site dewatering — pumping out footing excavations, basement digs, and utility trench work after rain
- Agricultural irrigation transfer — moving water from a pond, ditch, or storage tank into mainline irrigation
- Landscape and grounds maintenance for golf courses, sod farms, and large estates
- Light flood remediation and standing-water removal at municipal facilities and private property
- Wildland and rural fire-department water supply at remote draft sites

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the HP-2013HR pass solids?
The HP-2013HR is a high-pressure transfer pump, not a trash pump. It will pass small grit and silt that fits through the suction strainer, but it is not built for slurry, large solids, mud, or debris-laden water. For trash-water duty with solids over 1/2 inch, choose a dedicated BE Pressure trash pump model instead.
What suction lift does it support in real-world conditions?
Spec-sheet 330 ft total head is theoretical maximum. In practice plan for 20-25 ft of static suction lift at sea level, with friction losses subtracting from the discharge head. Use rigid suction hose with a foot valve, prime the pump fully, and keep suction runs as short and straight as possible for best performance.
Does it come pre-wired for an electric start?
No. The HP-2013HR is a standard recoil-start configuration paired with the Honda GX390. The Honda engine is exceptionally easy to start cold and rarely warrants the cost of an electric-start conversion for transfer pump duty.
What hoses are included?
The pump ships with the standard suction strainer and basic NPT discharge fittings. Most contractors buy 2-inch suction and discharge hose separately so they can match length, pressure rating, and coupling style to the job. Discount Cleaning Products can quote a matching hose package on request.
Is the Honda GX390 covered by warranty?
Yes. The Honda GX390 carries Honda Power Equipment's standard 3-year limited warranty for residential or commercial use, serviced through any authorized Honda Power Equipment dealer in the US and Canada. The pump-end warranty terms are set by BE Pressure and ship with the unit.
Discount Cleaning Products is an authorized BE Pressure dealer with US-based customer service and parts support on the high-pressure transfer pump line.
