    I have the Zero-G hoses and they work fine with my pressure washer... City water pressure keeps it fully pressured while running the washer... I'm guessing if a high GPH pressure washer is used, it would need to consume more GPH than what's supplied by the city?

    And preferably tempered makeup air... A local restaurant we go to, with a commercial hood running, isn't using any makeup air...

Looking at your picture you can get A36 hot roll bar stock from a local steel supplier. 3/16" thick stock and under has a pretty smooth surface finish. At 1/4" thick stock and up...
