In the world of commercial cleaning, high-pressure steam cleaners shine as a choice for getting the job done thoroughly and effectively. These modern machines harness the cleaning abilities of steam to achieve a level of cleanliness that conventional methods find hard to replicate. This article will discuss the science that propels high-pressure steam cleaners. We…
How Water Pressure and Water Flow Rate Affects Cleaning Action and Pressure
In a properly designed high pressure washer, the high-pressure pump system pushes the water supplied from an outside source through the pressure washer at a carefully selected pressure and flow rate. The pump is a piston or plunger type that pushes water through a cylinder and then out through a hose and spray nozzle. The…
The Hot Pressure Washer: Your Solution for Tough Cleaning Jobs
A hot pressure washer utilizes heated water under high pressure to remove dirt, grime, and other contaminants from surfaces. It has heating elements or boilers to heat the water to elevated temperatures, typically ranging from 100°F to 300°F. This combination of pressure and heat enhances the machine’s cleaning power, effectively handling tough stains and stubborn…
Maximizing Efficiency With Hot Water Pressure Washers
Hot water pressure washers (or power washers) utilize hot water and high-pressure spray to effectively remove dirt, grime, grease, and contaminants from surfaces. These machines are often used in industrial and commercial settings for cleaning vehicles, buildings, concrete surfaces, and machinery. They are also available in various sizes and configurations to suit different needs and…
How to Use a Pressure Washer with a Portable Electric Generator
Electric motor driven pressure washers that require single phase 115 volt or single phase 230 volt electrical power can optionally be supplied by a separate portable engine driven generator. However, use of a generator requires that the operator strictly comply with the following guidelines to avoid serious problems with the pressure washer and/or generator. The…
Pressure Washer Wastewater Capture and Disposal
Efficient cleaning of equipment, buildings, production areas and outdoor paved surfaces to remove all grease, dirt and grime can be accomplished with a hot water or cold water pressure washer. However, there is one challenge that must be handled properly. This challenge is the containment and capture of the wastewater from pressure washing, either inside…
Use of High-Speed Rotating Nozzles on Pressure Washers
Spartan high-pressure washers can be used with optional high speed, rotating nozzles, (usually called turbo nozzles) for removal of difficult or heavy deposits, on surfaces or for any pressure cleaning tasks that does not respond well to normal pressure washing, (when more impact is needed.) Spartan Manufacturing Corp. produces a range of size of high-speed,…
How To Deal With Wastewater Created by Washing With Pressure Washers
Power or pressure washers are mechanical cleaning devices that use a high-pressure spray to remove dirt, grime, mold, and other surface contaminants. These machines have an engine or motor pressuring water and expelling it through nozzles at a higher force than regular garden hoses. However, they come with a significant challenge wastewater generation. Runoff water…
Key Considerations With Cold Water Pressure Washers
Cold water pressure washers are high-pressure cleaning machines designed to use cold water to remove dirt, grime, and other types of debris. They are commonly used in residential, commercial, and industrial settings for cleaning vehicles, driveways, decks, siding, and machinery. These washers typically consist of a motor or engine that powers a water pump, pressurizing…
