  A Power Pressure Washer Makes Cleaning Fun
by Ian Pearce

Nothing says fun more than blasting dirt and debris off something with a power pressure washer. Your basic washer comes with a high pressure pump and reservoir, spray hose and nozzle, and an electrical cord.

You simply fill the reservoir and/or use a water hose to connect it to the water supply. Plug it in and you are good to go. The small electrical units can spray water out of the nozzle at pressures of over 1400 PSI.

That is an astounding amount of pressure. Please be careful as this much pressure can really hurt you so keep your spraying confined to inanimate surfaces only. Speaking of pressure, make sure you get the right unit for the job.

If you use too much pressure, you can rip the paint off almost any surface with the right washer.

A friend of mine was trying to get in with his in-laws by cleaning their cars but managed to strip the paint off one of their older cars with his power pressure washer! Don't say I didn't warn you. Wood surfaces are especially vulnerable.

It is easier than you think to gouge the wood on your deck with a power washer. If in doubt, test a small inconspicuous spot before going for the gold.

Anyway, now that we got the precautionary messages out of the way, what else can we clean with this? Well, another application is cleaning the siding on your house.

If you have not done any maintenance to the exterior of your house since disco was on the air then I've got a job for you! Power washing your house should be done carefully.

Make sure that the windows near your large screen television are closed.

If you like dirt and rocks spraying all over the place then cleaning the driveway is just the ticket. Fire that power pressure washer right up and blast that dirt, those rocks, and anything else standing in the way of a clean driveway away!

These power washers can send rocks flying so make sure that your car, people and pets are not anywhere near you when you do this. There are so many things that you can clean which can be so much more fun with a power washer. Let your imagination run free.

Dirt bikes anyone?
