Power washing, or pressure washing, is the application of a high pressure water spray to surfaces that need cleaned.
It is used on concrete to remove mold, gum, and dirt stains.
It is used on wooden docks to return the wood’s vibrant color.
It is used on houses. to remove pollution, mildew, and other problematic signs of aging.
Frequency of power washing depends on many factors, such as personal preference, materials, location Etc.. Contact me for information specific to you.
A do-it-yourself washer may set the pressure too high for the surface or hold the nozzle too close to it. This can result in chipped painting, damaged screens, and ruined siding. And though most power washing equipment you can rent has the same PSI as commercial-grade tools, it holds a minimal amount of water—making this project take days, not hours.
PSI is the pounds per square inch. This is what delivers the punch during a power wash, forcing contaminants off the surface.
GPM is the gallons per minute. This flushes the contaminants pushed off by the PSI.
Both are very important. Some people do, however, prefer more PSI or more GPM depending on their needs. A farmer may want more GPM to flush contaminants away from the fresh soil; a business owner may want more PSI to get the grime off the exterior surface of his or her storefront.
Not with the professional technician at aquamatic. We know how to properly utilize high pressure washing equipment that has the capability to produce an extremely high pressure output. By examining the type of surface and its condition, we can set the right amount of water pressure to be used.
The terms “power wash” and “pressure wash” are completely synonymous. The fact is these terms are used interchangeably to describe the process of using high pressure water to clean surfaces.
