Every year as spring is upon us, there are always loads of dirt, grime, mud along your driveway, debris in gutters, with road sand and salt caking up your car. Obviously they need a good wash, and there is probably no better cleaning tool than the water jet cleaner to help you do it. While an ordinary hose would take a long time to get them fully cleaned, power pressure washers with 20 times more pressured force, could really speed up your cleaning activities When searching for the right water jet cleaning machine, you need to consider the following:
Compared with the a typical garden hose which is capable of spraying 40 PSI or pounds per square inch of water pressure, the power pressure washers with 1,200 to 2,000 PSI is 30 to 50 times more powerful. The lower PSI range machines are for light cleaning of more fragile surfaces like wood works, furniture, decks, blinds, windows, nets and cars. On the other hand, the higher PSI range of more than 2,000 are for removing tougher grime, stubborn grease on more extensive surfaces. They are also great for preparing surfaces for paint or sealing. Most electric models are made within this range and for light duty cleaning. They are very compact, and highly portable and can be used for cleaning indoors and outdoors. All you need for exterior cleaning is a longer extension cord and you are good to go.

The highest PSI range of more than 4,000 are often reserved for commercial usage of cleaning manufacturing and meat processing plants whereby stubborn and thick globs of grease need to be removed and the environment thoroughly cleaned to ensure that business can continue the next day. Although the electric versions may be used to carry out these tasks, the more efficient gas powered models would do the job much better due to its powerful PSI and cleaning efficiency. Most are built for commercial usage unlike its electric counterparts which are essentially more suitable for household use.
The effectiveness of these water jet cleaning machines are further enhanced when coupled with detergents recommended by the manufacturers as well as hot water. This is also another reason why hot water pressure washers are also very popular, especially for commercial cleaning.
