How Pressure Washing Works

I works by using a high-pressure stream of water to remove dirt, grime, and other contaminants from surfaces. The pressure is created by a motorized pump that forces water through a high-pressure hose and nozzle. The nozzle can be adjusted to create a more focused or wider spray pattern, depending on the surface being cleaned.

Before pressure washing, it is important to identify the type of surface being cleaned and choose the appropriate pressure and nozzle. Using too much pressure or the wrong nozzle can damage the surface being cleaned. For example, a high-pressure nozzle should not be used on delicate surfaces like wood or vinyl siding.

Pressure washing can be done using either cold or hot water. Cold water pressure washing is suitable for most cleaning tasks, while hot water pressure washing is more effective for removing oil, grease, and other stubborn stains.
