A lot of exterior cleaning projects around your home and property can be accomplished with a power washer. The proper way to tackle these projects is to use the correct cleaners so that excessive high pressure is not needed. Too much pressure can easily damage wood, vinyl siding, asphalt shingles and brick mortar as well as other surfaces. When using a good house or deck wash you can use less pressure, eradicating the risk of damage, but still achieve great results.
The way the pressure is lowered on a power washing unit is by changing the nozzle at the end of the wand. Usually the nozzles that come with the unit are designed to allow for the maximum amount of pressure in various fan degrees. It will probably be necessary to obtain different nozzles from a pressure washer dealer to achieve a lower pressure. Tell them what you plan on washing and they will be able to suggest what pressure you should be at and will sell you the appropriate sized nozzle |
