How do power washers work?

When water comes out of your garden hose, the water flows naturally. However, when that same water is pushed through a smaller nozzle or orifice, you’re not just getting regular water. It’s pressurised.

This water concentration means that a pressure washer compresses the water and creates a more powerful stream. Best not use it in your garden for your delicate flowers! These washers are meant for large, durable surfaces on your property and will clean with greater intensity than any other device.

These tools are generally powered by a pump that will also accelerate the speed of the water’s flow. You can find pumps that are powered by different sources including petrol and electricity.

But when it comes to washing the dirtiest of your larger items, a pressure washer is an essential tool. Think about your car, patio, driveway, brick home, and much more. These items become dull-looking without proper cleaning. With a pressure washer, you’ll quickly have these cleaned and ready to go.

The pressure you use for each job will vary. You can add power washer accessories to perfectly complete any cleaning project. That could include making your power washer longer for cleaning gutters or drain cleaners.
