Tips on Selecting High Quality Pressure Washers

One must consider two things when selecting pressure washers: performance and durability. The specifications that affect the performance of a pressure washing machine are output pressure, output temperature, and flow rate. In contrast, durability depends on the quality of the material used for the construction of components within pressure washers.

The following are some tips on selecting top-quality machines with the proper components.

Hoses

The general rule is the higher the output pressure, the tougher the hose must be. Hoses for industrial and commercial use should be wire reinforced with rubber or thermoplastic covering. Rubber covering is a better bet in most cases. In addition, it is better to opt for pressure washers having hoses labeled as “non-marking.” Such hoses do not leave any markings or scratches on the floor or other surfaces.

Nozzle

Many types of nozzles are available. The nozzle angle is the most important specification. The nature of the job determines the suitable nozzle angle. Larger angles are ideal for covering larger areas. Smaller angles create a stronger force, but only cover small areas at a time. A special steam nozzle is required for use with steam pressure cleaners.

Overall Structure

Cleaning professionals use pressure washers for tough cleaning jobs such as heavy duty industrial cleaning and degreasing large equipment. If the body of the cleaning machine is not durable, it will quickly begin to fall apart or fail. Good machines have heavy duty stainless steel casing.

Most experienced cleaning professionals would recommend pressure washers of Daimer®. The company distributes a number of rugged and quality models in its Super Max™ series of pressure cleaners.

Pressure Washers Give Agricultural Machinery a New Life

Pressure washers are machines well equipped to deal with the tough cleaning task of washing agricultural equipment. Agricultural machinery includes harvesters, pesticide sprayers, water distribution equipment, and irrigation units, among other types of equipment. Many of these machines are large and have difficult parts to clean. Not only do they pick up mud, dirt, and debris from the fields, but they also accumulate a large amount of grease. If these machines are not cleaned thoroughly on a regular basis, the accumulated dirt can enhance wear and tear, and reduce the life of the machine.

Daimer® offers four types of pressure washers to suit different cleaning needs. For instance, cleaning jobs that do not deal with degreasing can use cold water pressure washing machines. Degreasing can also be accomplished with cold water systems, when paired with a degreaser like Eco-Green® Ultra-Power™ Degreaser. For tasks that involve hardened deposits or the removal of grease, hot water or steam pressure washers are more suitable. Daimer® also offers a range of tri-mode equipment that can be operated in the three aforementioned modes: cold water, hot water, and steam. This provides operators with optimum versatility to meet virtually all applications.

To clean large agricultural machines outdoors, you can choose from pressure washers powered by propane, gas, diesel, or electricity. Gas, propane, and diesel powered systems are more mobile, as they do not rely on electricity. However, these machines do generate exhaust. If an electrical supply is readily available, an electric-powered system may be used.
