Are Moderate Pressure and Low Flow Pressure Washers Effective?


Powerful Mobile Car Wash for Auto Detailing

Pressure washers are often associated with high pressure levels and powerful cleaning capabilities. Those unfamiliar with the power of pressure washing machines often believe the higher the power, the better the cleaning efficiency. However, when using pressure washers, operators must analyze the applications the machine will be used for in addition to choosing the right pressure levels, flow rates, and temperature options.

Many surfaces cannot withstand very high pressure levels. For example, pressure washing machines used for auto detailing must have a pressure level of 1500 psi or below. Higher pressure levels can cause dents, scratches, and paint chipping. Similarly, high flow rates do not always facilitate cleaning. In water scarce regions, using a machine with higher flow rates may not be the most suitable.

Daimer® offers pressure washers with all ranges of pressure levels, temperature options, and flow rates. In machines with low flow rates, high temperatures and pressure levels compensate for the reduced water use. The Super Max™ 6120SCW is one of Daimer®’s specialized machines for auto detailing. It features a safe pressure level of 1000 psi, steam temperature levels of 300°F capable of removing grease, and low flow rates of 0.5 GPM for limited water consumption.

For more demanding cleaning applications, it is recommended to use a pressure washer with steam capabilities. Such machines as the Super Max™ 7000 can reach steam temperatures up to 330°F for removing grease from machinery and floors. It has moderate flow rates of 2.5 GPM and pressure levels of 1000 psi.

How to Use Pressure Washers for Concrete Cleaning



Pressure washers are used to clean a variety of hard surfaces. They are particularly effective in cleaning dirty, stained concrete surfaces. Their high pressure levels and high temperature output can blast away nearly all impurities from a hard surface. In addition, concrete surfaces can withstand such high pressure levels and temperature output.

How to Choose Machines

Selecting the right machine goes a long way in making the cleaning process effective. For cleaning concrete surfaces, choose a machine that can provide steam output or hot water output. These surfaces can withstand such high temperatures, which are necessary to dissolve grease and other stains often found on concrete.

While the addition of cleaning chemicals, such as Daimer®’s Eco-Green® Concrete Cleaner with Rust Stain Remover, can be added to pressure washing machines for extra cleaning power, heated machines are generally recommended for removing difficult stains such as grease and oil.

Low Flow Machines

Using pressure washers with low flow rates allow the machines to consume less water during the cleaning process. This technology can limit the quantity of water transferred to the surface. While Daimer® offers steam cleaners with low flow rates for places with minimal drainage or water availability, outdoor concrete cleaning often does not have this issue. Consider a machine such as Daimer®’s Super Max™ 12820, which utilizes pressure levels of 2000 psi and flow rates of 3 GPM for effective concrete cleaning.

A Guide to Pressure Washers with Low Flow Rates



Along with temperature levels and pressure levels, flow rates must also be considered when buying pressure washers. The flow rate determines the amount of water passed through the nozzle while cleaning. Pressure washers with higher flow rates are ideal for outdoor areas or indoor areas where drainage is not an issue. Higher flow rates also translate to greater cleaning power, ideal in industrial settings. Lower flow rates should be used in low drainage areas.

What Is Flow Rate?

Flow rate is the measure of the quantity of water that flows through the output of pressure washers. It is denoted by gallons per minute (GPM). Flow rate varies from 0.5 GPM to 8 GPM, depending upon the machine. In most cases, flow rate increases as the pressure level and cleaning power increase. However, in some cases, machines with high pressure levels and low flow rates are required.

Importance of Low Flow Rates

A low flow rate indicates a smaller quantity of water is pushed through the nozzle while cleaning. In some kinds of cleaning processes, such as auto detailing and indoor cleaning, the flow rate should be fairly low. Using machines with high flow rates in areas with little drainage will result in flooding and water that will be difficult to remove from the area.

Need For Technology

Although machines with lower flow rates normally have lower pressure level, Daimer® offers machines that utilize low flow rates coupled with higher pressure levels. This allows for smaller water consumption without sacrificing the power of the machine.

How to Choose Pressure Washers for Indoor Cleaning



A perplexing number of pressure washers is available on the internet, with many companies advertising makes and models suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. New customers are often overwhelmed and with all the features and options available and do not know what to look for when purchasing a pressure washer.

Are All Machines Suitable for Indoor Cleaning?

Not all machines are suitable for indoor cleaning. While many pressure washers can be used for indoor cleaning, electric machines are more suitable for this task. They are the best choice for two reasons:

First, electric machines do not emit any unpleasant exhaust fumes into the air as fuel-powered machines do. Fuel-powered machines run on combustion engines, which invariably emit byproducts of combustion. Such byproducts tend to increase the humidity of the room, as well as leave an unpleasant odor. Fuel-powered systems can be used in doors if placed in an exhaust friendly location or even outside while the operator uses long hoses to reach the given application.

Second, electric machines make less noise than fuel-powered machines. In outdoor settings, noise does not cause much of a problem, as it merges with the ambient noise of the surroundings. This, however, is not the case with an indoor environment.

Another advantage of electric pressure washers is the abundance of an endless power supply. It is relatively easy to find electric outlets indoors. While this can present an issue when operating the electric powered system outdoors, it is almost never a problem indoors.

Things to Check

Before choosing your machine, be sure to check its pressure level, output temperature range, and flow rate. Most importantly, check the quality of the brand name. Daimer®, a reputable manufacturer of cleaning products, offers high quality electric pressure washers. Fuel pressure cleaners with long hose technology are also available for indoor use. With these systems, operators place the machine in an exhaust friendly location, use hoses up to 300 feet in length to reach the application, and do not experience any loss in pressure or cleaning power.

Commercial Applications of Pressure Washers

commercial pressure washers
Daimer® retails pressure washers for commercial and industrial use. Pressure washers are highly sought after machines as they can remove the hard work of cleaning and make the process more productive and less time consuming.

Daimer®’s commercial pressure washers have numerous uses. Contractors prefer industrial grade machines for cleaning public areas, roads, driveways, subways, walls, windows, gates, grills, and concrete surfaces. Businesses such as restaurants, malls, retail stores, apartment and office complexes, amusement parks, airports, and car rental companies prefer to invest in a pressure washer rather than hire a contractor every time they need to clean the premises or vehicle fleet. This is clearly less costly than renting pressure washers, as rental fees can add up to more than the cost of an actual purchase over time.

The Super Max™ 12500 GE, powered by gas, is a pressure cleaner ideal for outdoor cleaning applications. With a 3000 psi pressure level, 5 GPM flow rate, and tri-mode temperature setting, this machine can remove grease, mud, graffiti, oil, and other difficult stains.

The Super Max™ 7000 is an electric pressure washer offering a 1000 psi pressure level and a flow rate of 2.5 GPM, as well as tri-mode capabilities. With steam temperatures up to 330°F, this machine is perfect for commercial applications, such as cleaning cars, boats, patios, store fronts and dumpsters.

Selecting the Right Pressure Washers

Pressure washers are powerful machines strong enough to blast away dirt and impurities from the surface being cleaned. However, it is important to understand that different pressure washers are ideal for different cleaning tasks. By using quality materials, Daimer® offers durable pressure cleaners built to withstand tough conditions.

Specifications

The main specifications of pressure washers are output pressure, temperature, and flow rate. Different types of cleaning jobs require different specifications. For example, when auto detailing a vehicle, a pressure level of 1500 psi or less should be used to limit the risk of damage to the vehicle. On the other hand, for industrial degreasing, machines that can provide an output pressure of over 3000 psi are ideal. The same goes for flow rate. For mobile auto detailing, you need machines with a low flow rate to minimize the consumption of water. For other jobs, flow rate, water availability, and drainage facilities may not be a concern. Temperature options also vary, including cold water, hot water, steam, and tri-mode systems.

Versatility

Versatility is the key for any cleaning machine. Pressure washers are no different in that regard. Tri-mode machines can provide three types of output: cold water (output at room temperature), hot water (output at 210°F), and steam (output at 330°F), offering flexibility for virtually any cleaning applications.

Where to Get Right Machines

The internet offers countless possibilities when purchasing a pressure cleaning machine, but the best machines come from reputable suppliers. Daimer®, a premier distributor of cleaning products, offers a variety of pressure washers in their Super Max™ series. Visit www.daimer.com for more details.

Excellent Fleet Maintenance with Pressure Washers

Fleet maintenance is a difficult job, as it requires the transformation of dirty, grimy, greasy, and dusty automobiles and trucks into clean vehicles, ready for use by customers and employees. Because large vehicles, like those used by trucking companies, tend to accumulate more dust, dirt, and grease, they require more powerful machines to clean them. For such heavy-duty applications, you must use top-quality, durable, powerful, and reliable pressure washers from reputable suppliers.

Until recently, vehicle detailing professionals had only two kinds of car wash systems to choose from — steam cleaners and conventional pressure washers. Unfortunately, both these classes of cleaning machines were unsuitable for vehicle detailing tasks. While the extremely high pressure levels (3000 psi) of power cleaners could seriously damage vehicle exteriors, elevated flow rates of 5 GPM result in large amounts of water waste. Steam cleaners, on the other hand, offer low flow rates and pressure levels. However, the dry vapor steam output is simply not powerful enough for removing grease and other applications involved in auto detailing. That explains why leading suppliers like Daimer® continue to launch power cleaners with special features for detailing vehicles.

Pressure washers like the Super Max™ 12820 from Daimer® generate high temperature steam at temperatures of up to 330°F to dissolve tree sap, bug residues, bird splatters, grease and other deposits that tarnish fleet exteriors. And, with a pressure level of 1500 psi, this system cleans effectively without harming vehicle surfaces.

Tips on Selecting High Quality Pressure Washers

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

Agricultural Machinery Cleaning
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.

Pressure Washers for Surfaces That Can’t Take High Pressure

Pressure Washers for Surfaces
Pressure washers can be used to clean a wide variety of different surfaces. However, some surfaces may be more delicate than others are and require lower pressure levels. Cleaning surfaces like glass or metal that has a paint coating requires pressure washers that have lower water flow rates and pressure levels. Daimer® recognizes the need for pressure washing machines with lower pressure and flow rates. They have a number of different machines specially designed to clean sensitive surfaces.

For certain jobs, such as auto detailing, some people make the mistake of using conventional pressure washers for the job. To fully understand why this is not a good idea, we need to understand how these pressure washers work. A machine with a conventional or high pressure rate will expel a large amount of water onto a small area under great pressure. This is perfect for removing stubborn sediments that may have hardened onto the surface, but if this same pressure is applied on a sensitive surface, it can cause damage and even dents on the surface.

Pressure washers like the Super Max™ 6120SCW are better suited for cleaning delicate surfaces. These use less water with a lower flow rate of only about 0.5 GPM. Coupled with a pressure rate of around 1000 psi, it provides the right amount of cleaning power without damaging the surface. It is also versatile in removing different kinds of dirt deposits and stains. Using pressure washing machines with low water flow rates ensures a thorough cleaning job that will not damage surfaces.

Operators should note that wet sandblasting is only effective for sandblasting small areas, due to its narrow spray pattern.

The life of pressure washers is considerably influenced by the quality of its construction and components. The Super Max™ 12820 WS scores well in this aspect too. This pressure cleaning machine has been solidly constructed from the highest quality stainless steel.

The super-heated steam generated by these power cleaners can reach up to 330ºF. Additionally, high pressure levels of about 1500 psi and a low flow rate of 3 GPM combine to make this power washer the perfect choice for a wide range of industrial cleaning and wet sandblasting applications.

Pressure Washers for Optimum Indoor Cleaning Power


Pressure washers can be a great assistant when tackling certain indoor cleaning projects. The truth is that some indoor areas can be very difficult to clean, especially with conventional cleaning methods. Pressure washers use highly-pressurized to forcibly remove stains and hardened deposits from different surfaces. When cleaning areas like commercial kitchens, this can be very helpful as you won’t need to rely on harsh chemicals to clean surfaces that food is prepared on.

Pressure washers that are well-suited for indoor use include the Super Max™ 7000 from Daimer®. These machines operate using high pressure levels of 1000 psi. This is a good rate for removing sediments like stubborn grease stains or hardened food deposits. Coupled with this pressure level is a flow rate of 2.5 GPM which effectively washes away dust and debris from different surfaces. These pressure washers also offer the extra cleaning edge of steam, with steam temperatures of up to 330º F. These units additionally come with the added ability to connect directly to a hose line- this means that the user does not need to manually refill the machine while cleaning.

These kinds of pressure washers are ideal for cleaning areas like public rest rooms, which have high traffic and need to be sanitized as well. They can even be used for removing very tough substances like chewing gum from surfaces.

Pressure Washers - Convenient Features


Industrial or commercial grade pressure washers can clear away grime and grease stains that are harder to remove than standard dirt. However, in their removal, you need to stick to strict hygiene norms particularly in industries such as food processing and medical supplies. There may be restrictions on water use, so you cannot use too much water for cleaning either.

Daimer® takes into account all your industrial cleaning requirements and limitations, offering equipment to meet all your needs. Daimer® pressure washers are available for every requirement: low flow, high and low pressure, high and low temperature, steam, portability and stationary, and powered by electricity, gas, or propane. You can select pressure washers for indoor use as well as for outdoor cleaning.

Several models in the Super Max™ series are equipped with AST®, which enables the device to shut off automatically if left idle for more than 30 seconds. If you have wished that you could switch off the trigger gun without having to walk back to the machine every few minutes, then AST® makes your wish come true.

The Super Max™ 12500 GE and Super Max™ 12880 pressure washers are built for outdoor use. They are powered by gas. Therefore, non-availability of electricity in outdoor areas is not a problem. If the availability of water is a problem, try the Super Max™ 6120LM that has pressure levels of up to 1000 psi and can reach steam temperature of 300ºF. However, it uses only 0.5 GPM of water, making it one of the lowest flow rate pressure washers available today.
