Pressure washing
Use of high-pressure water jet for cleaning hard surfaces
Pressure washing
Pressure washing or power washing is the use of high-pressure water spray to remove loose paint, mold, grime, dust, mud, and dirt from surfaces and objects such as buildings, vehicles and concrete surfaces. The volume of a mechanical pressure washer is expressed in gallons or liters per minute, often designed into the pump and not variable. The pressure, expressed in pounds per square inch, pascals, or bar, is designed into the pump but can be varied by adjusting the unloader valve or using specialized nozzle tips. Machines that produce pressures from 750 to 30,000 psi (5 to 200 MPa) or more are available. The terms "pressure washing" and "power washing" are used interchangeably in many scenarios, and there is some debate as to whether they are actually different processes. An industrial pressure-washing surface cleaner is a tool consisting of two to four high-pressure jets on a rotating bar that swivels when water flows. Some systems involve a wheeled circular shroud which is moved along...
