Taking the Pressure Out of Power Washing

Pressure washers can take off dirt and grime much more efficiently and effectively than former methods, and make your Spring-cleaning projects easier to finish.

Dreading the notion of cleaning your siding with your garden hose, a pail and a scrub brush? think purchasing a pressure washer to make the job easier. Pressure washers can take off dirt and grime much more efficiently and effectively than former methods. A pressure washer combines an electric motor or gas machine with a pump, and turns an ordinary garden hose into a high-powered cleaning machine. Cleaning solutions can be added to the pressurized water, providing best cleaning results, and adjustable spray wands and brushes accommodate separate cleaning situations.

3000 Psi

Four main categories of pressure washers exist: light-duty electric; residential gas powered; heavy-duty gas powered; and expert gas powered. When shopping for pressure washers some leading terms to know are "pounds per square inch" (Psi), which indicates the pressure of the water, and "gallons per minute"(Gpm), which indicates how much water is flushed through the washer at a given time.

The light-duty electric versions work wonderfully for washing cars, boats, house siding, decks, fences, patio furniture, and sweeping up debris. This type of washer has 1,300 to 1,400 pound Psi and uses 1.5 Gpm. It sells for 0 to 0.

Residential pressure washers have gas-powered engines. These units have more power than the light-duty electric, so they can accomplish all the tasks mentioned above, plus they work well for removing stubborn dirt from lawn and garden equipment. They ordinarily have about 1,650 to 2,400 Psi and a 3.75 to six horsepower side-valve or overhead machine and cost in any place from 0 to 0. (Schulteis)

Heavy-duty pressure washers have more resilient engines and pumps for more power. This type of pressure washer is a good venture if you are using the washer frequently, as in a painting business, where the washer is used to get ready houses for painting. These units have 2,400 - 3,000 Psi, a 5.0 - 8.0 horsepower overhead valve or overhead valve industrial machine and they cost in any place from 0 - 0.

Professional pressure washers are designed with an industrial machine and pump to accommodate expert users. These machines are marvelous sufficient to clean brick and concrete, and even take off graffiti. They have 2,500 - 4,000 Psi, a 6.5 - 15 horsepower excellent overhead valve industrial machine and typically retail for 0 to ,400.

Consider a pressure washer for those tedious spring-cleaning tasks, as well as for large projects like establishment surfaces for painting. Not only will it make the job go quicker, but a new tool all the time makes a task more interesting.
