Choosing a Pressure Washer for the Job

Choosing a pressure washer for the job

When it comes to being a professional pressure washer, it is important to understand each job at the foundational level. There are millions of different kinds of pressure washers, solutions, and more on the market.

We want to provide you with the best experience possible with all of our services and sometimes we may need to use a different kind of pressure washer to do this.

There are two big factors we need to consider when choosing a pressure washer for a task. The type and style of a pressure washer.

The Type of Pressure Washer

There are different kinds of pressure washers that we need to know about otherwise the task may become a little bit harder to get done.

Cold water pressure washer. When it comes down to affordability, most people tend to go with the cold water pressure washer. Generally, people use it to clean the siding of their home or decking. Businesses stick to the commercial level pressure washers though.

Hot water pressure washer. Germs and mold tend to be killed easier with extremely hot water so businesses tend to use a hot water pressure washer for this sole purpose. Due to the amount of heat involved, it can be dangerous for anyone else to use them.

Electric pressure washer. Due to its source of power coming from an electrical outlet, it is not used by businesses most of the time. It works great for people at home to use due to it being a lower power and lightweight.

Gas pressure washer. These tend to be much more powerful than the electric ones so businesses tend to use these more often. Another benefit is that they are not tied down to an electrical unit.

The Style of Pressure Washer

The style of a pressure washer is another important aspect to consider. There are a few different styles of pressure washers that you can use during a pressure washing service.

With wheels. Although it would be easier to walk around the property with, it could be more difficult when you are trying to maneuver to a new location. It may be more difficult to fit into your car.

Standing unit. If you are doing someone else's pressure washing, it can be easier to fit a standing unit in since it is lightweight and portable.

Each service has different aspects that we need to consider. A roof cleaning may require a cold water pressure washer due to it needing a soft wash while on the other hand, your patio may need the hot water pressure washer to kill off the germs.
