Advantages of Pressure Washing Technique

Pressure washing basically means the use of a high pressure mechanical sprayer or high velocity water spray for removing loose paint, moss on the surface of sidewalks, stubborn stains or mud from buildings and concrete surfaces.

Pressure washing your house is specifically helpful before painting or re-painting as it prepares the surface before painting. It helps in keeping the paints fresh and lasts for a longer period of time.

A Pressure Washing Machine or Pressure Washer

A Pressure Washer is a mechanical device that creates high pressure and velocity to remove unwanted residues and materials by focusing and pressurizing the water stream on the surface that needs to be cleaned.

A pressure washer is made up of a motor for generating the engine, a pressure withstanding hose that handle high pressures and, a trigger switch that starts and stops the operation of the washer.

Water pressure near the nozzle of a pressure washer is so powerful; it should be operated only by experts of professional painters in Vancouver.

Depending on the surface and the altitude that requires cleaning, the nozzle can be adjusted in order to increase or decrease the velocity of water. The consumer based washers are either powered by electricity or petrol. The electric powered washers can be plugged into a normal outlet that uses tap water generally delivering a water pressure of about 2,000 psi (Pounds per square inch). Petrol generated washers on the other hand are capable of producing twice the pressure of electric washers.
