Truck mounted pressure washers are popular in the cleaning industry. For heavier industrial pressure washers, truck mounting is a good option, as it makes reaching cleaning applications easier. Other configurations available include wheel mounted and stationary, both with unique benefits for different applications. In addition to mobility configurations, there are several other factors to consider when selecting a high pressure washer.
Temperature
Top brands offer three different types of pressure washers. They are hot pressure washers, cold pressure washers, and steam pressure washers. The cold machines work at an output temperature equivalent to room temperature. The hot pressure washers work at 210ºF. The steam power washer machines work at high temperatures of 330ºF.
Naturally, machines that offer steam output prove to be the most powerful commercial power washers. Hot steam can easily break down a number of stubborn stains and grime. Steam can easily melt grease and eliminate wax stains from surfaces.
Because many people require the features of all three pressure cleaning machines for different applications, quality suppliers offer tri-temperature capabilities. You can use hot, cold, and steam cleaning options depending on your cleaning needs.
Pressure Level
The output pressure of commercial power washers is as important as the output temperature. Pressure levels can range anywhere between 750 psi and 8000 psi. Higher pressure levels usually accompany a higher cleaning ability.
Flow Rate
The next factor to consider is the flow rate, which is the amount of water flowing through the machine output. The flow rate generally increases as pressure levels rise. However, excessively high flow rates can present a problem in facilities with limited drainage.
It is important to determine your cleaning needs when choosing a machine. Powerful industrial pressure washers are not suitable for light cleaning tasks in residential areas, just as residential machines do not offer sufficient power for industrial applications.
Reputable distributors will offer a wide variety of machines. Speak with a product specialist to pair the right pressure washer configuration to your cleaning needs.
