The market for household goods is updated every day with new products that are designed to make human life easier. And here, washing is far from the last place. high pressure, which makes it possible to significantly facilitate the process of washing a car, paths, shop windows and much more. A powerful jet of water can clean dirt even in the most hard to reach places, cope with old dirt on any surface.

But at the same time, it is worth noting the fact that due to the high cost, not everyone can purchase a device of this type, and therefore some craftsmen make it themselves. But we’ll talk about how you can make a high-pressure washer with your own hands in this article.

How to make your own high pressure washer?

Pump and electrical network . For any water supply device, the basis is a pump. And in our case, it must also be quite powerful (from 150 atmospheres).

When choosing a pump, special attention should be paid to the working units, that is, to the material from which these products were made.

If possible, choose a product with a high-strength metal or ceramic piston. In this case, it is recommended to select the block head from brass or bronze alloys. This design can last much longer. Its service life between repairs is quite high.

A speed of 15 l/min for the pump will be sufficient.

It is recommended to choose an electric motor with a voltage of 220 V. An additional capacitor unit can provide reliable starting. Thanks to more high frequency speed ensures greater productivity. But at the same time, a pump that is too high-speed at maximum operating speed is subject to intense wear.

The best option is a consumer of 2-3 kW and rotation up to 2000 rpm.

A homemade high-pressure washer must also have safety elements to preserve important components in the circuit. This link is the coupling connecting the pump to the engine.

If possible, we install a coupling that can compensate for small axial misalignments between the shafts.

You can also install a single-stage belt drive, which will balance the speed and load between the engine and the pump.

The subordinate number is selected from the required parameters according to the rotation frequency.

Reservoir and performance regulator. A mini washer also needs a water container. IN in this case you can use a simple tank, which, if necessary, can also be powered from permanent source water (well or tap).

To exclude the possibility of various debris entering, it is recommended to install coarse and medium filters at the entrance to the container.

We also add shampoo or other approved car cosmetics to the main water container. In this case, the washing process will be more efficient.

As a rule, the pump has a capacity regulator combined with an auto-unloading valve, which redirects unused pressure back to the tank, reducing the load on the pump.

External elements. All elements are mounted on a frame, which can be made from profile or round curved pipes. For ease of transportation of the unit, a pair of wheels can also be attached to the lower pipes. In addition, we also install stops for fixation and a handle.

You can see what such a mini sink will look like in the photo.

For a high-pressure hose, you can use a plastic or rubberized reinforced hose. It is imperative to ensure the tightness of the connections using high-quality clamps or hydraulic sealing.

The fittings and valves used must be made of low-corrosion alloys: brass or bronze.

Water will be supplied through the gun from the nozzle installed in it. Visually it looks like a pistol from a gas station. A stream of water will be formed after pressing the key, which in turn will also save working fluid with consumable additives. You can buy a gun of this type at almost any hardware store.

1. Periodically inspect connecting nodes, and if necessary wrench pull up threaded connections.
2. So as not to decline throughput homemade mini-wash, before each connection we inspect the filters installed in the device.
3. To avoid accidents during operation, mandatory We ground the electrical part. Therefore, the plug used must have a grounding terminal, and the cable must be copper, three-wire.

How to make a foam generator with your own hands?

You can make a foam generator at home. Of course, in terms of functionality, such a device will lag behind its analogue, but in everyday life its usefulness is difficult to overestimate.

The tools we need are:

• Set of wrenches;
• Roulette;
• Bulgarian;
• Pliers;

1) .We use inch pipe with a length of about a meter. We fill the front part of the product with a polyethylene sponge, the purpose of which will be to form foam.

2) . We make a plug for one of the edges of the pipe, and screw in a special tee here. Then we connect the tap for the foam generator to the hole at the inlet.

3) . On the other side of the pipe we install a tap through which the compressed air from a car compressor.

4) . We connect the second outlet of the pipe through a special fitting with a hose for foam. To prevent the washcloth from getting into the tube, we also install a special filter. In this case, the filter element can have large sections.

A diagram of a foam generator of this type is presented below.

Please note that the density of the foam produced depends on the length of the tube and the density of its packing with a washcloth.

Any container that can withstand the pressure of the compressor is suitable as a liquid tank.

How to properly wash a car with a car wash?

Hand washing is the so-called easy option for cleaning a car from dirt. But as practice shows, in this way it is possible to partially clean the surface of dirt. Another thing is the use of special technical means– car washes that supply detergent and water under high pressure.

In this way, you can not only clean off the dirt, but also a layer of oxides and synthetic resins, which during driving are deeply “rubbed” into the paintwork.

1. Use a stream of water to remove dirt from the car wash sprayer in various directions.
2. Apply a weak foam concentrate to the body surface under low pressure, which will effectively wash off the first two layers of dirt.
3. Rinse the surface of the car with plenty of water.
4. Apply the main detergent under high pressure, and this must be done from the bottom up. Leave the applied product for 3-5 minutes. At this time, you can wash the rims, suspension elements, and underbody.
5. Rinse the surface of the car with plenty of water. Remove its remnants using a squeegee and special wipes. Wipe the car dry, without ignoring internal surfaces(thresholds, doorways).

1. It is not recommended to wash the car until its body has cooled down. . The consequence of contact of water with a hot body can be the occurrence of a corrosion process.
2. If the surface of the car has ever been repaired using putty, you should not wash the car under too high pressure.
3. It is recommended to wash your car with special detergents no more than 1-2 times a month, since such products contain substances that can negatively affect the paintwork.
4. If possible, use those detergents, which are recommended by the manufacturer, as they are best suited to the paintwork of the car.

Today, washing a car is no longer a lengthy and labor-intensive task. A high pressure washer helps you get the job done much faster and more efficiently. In addition, these devices can be used for washing windows, doors and walls of houses, barbecues - in a word, objects that are not easy to clean with a brush and (or) rag. Water supplied under strong pressure copes well with these tasks and helps save time. But such a device is not cheap. Good wash costs from 150 USD. That is, and the capabilities of budget models are very limited. The way out is to use a high-pressure washer with your own hands. Having such a device at your dacha is very useful.

Structure:

• The main part of the device is an electric motor that creates water pressure. A pump, not necessarily a new one, is suitable for this purpose.
• The motor is inserted into the device body and connected to the power supply.
• The housing must be made of durable material. For example, made of metal or thick-walled plastic.

Important! Even in this case, there is a time limit for continuous use of the sink. Do not use it for more than 3 hours at a time. The washer will fail in no time.

• If you buy several brush attachments, you can turn your homemade device into a multifunctional device. In particular, by equipping the design with a water heater, you can use it as a steam mop or steam cleaner. A turbo mill helps to wash tires and remove dirt from even the most difficult areas.

Internal pressure

The higher the pressure inside the housing, the more powerful the water jet from the hose. This means that contaminants are washed away better. But the pressure must be set carefully, since water under pressure can simply break a car glass or leave dents on the body:

• The pressure on industrial devices is 150-170 bar.
• For a DIY wash, 100 bar is quite enough.
• When using a turbo cutter, higher pressure is required - about 160 bar.

Electric pump pump

From the right choice pump depends on how well your high-pressure washer, assembled by yourself, will work. The material used to make the pump determines its wear resistance:

• The most budget and bad option- This plastic construction. The time of continuous operation of the sink in this case does not exceed 20 minutes.
• More expensive, but reliable pumps are brass. They are not afraid of corrosion.

Rules for the safe operation of mini-washes:

• Before using, check the device for functionality.
• After each use of the device, thoroughly clean the filter.
• If power outages occur frequently, equip the device with a battery.
• Keep children away from using the car wash.
• If you notice that some part is out of order, do not hesitate to repair it. Replace it with a valid one as soon as possible.
• Do not allow the air temperature in the room in which the device is located to fluctuate.

Making your own mini-sink

To make a car wash with your own hands, prepare in advance:

• Pump.
• Canister with a lid.
• Irrigation hose with a “gun”.
• Union.
• Coupling coupling.
• Rubber gasket.

These are parts for a future car wash. From consumables you will need drills and sealant.

Important! Before you make a high-pressure washer, the question arises: what size canister should you choose? Practice shows that for ordinary passenger car A 5 liter canister is quite enough. This is quite enough for washing a car, and such a unit can easily fit in the trunk.

Some tips for choosing components:

• There are two requirements for an irrigation hose: strength and flexibility. The best option is products with nylon braid. Multilayer hoses are more durable and reliable. You shouldn't skimp on them.
• The pump can be used foot or automatic. The latter option is much more convenient, since you don’t have to carry the pump from place to place and use your foot at the same time. The limiting factor is cost: an automatic pump costs three times as much.
• There are no special requirements for the fitting and coupling. The main thing is that they are in strong contact with each other.

Important! It is desirable that they be made of the same material - plastic or metal.

• To connect the device to the water supply, you will need a long (5-7 m) hose. This is enough to smooth out the pressure. If the water source is a container of at least 30 liters, it is recommended to use a hose with check valve to increase the operating pressure.

Body preparation:

• Drill a hole in the body (canister) that is sized to fit the coupling.
• Insert the coupling with the fitting into the hole.

Important! Don't forget to secure the coupling with sealant. This is necessary so that high pressure is maintained inside the canister and the coupling does not pop out during operation of the device.

• Now it's time to work on the lid. The lid will need to be made of hard and durable material. Attach a rubber gasket to its bottom. Make a hole in it and mount the fungus from a tubeless tire.

Final assembly:

1. Attach the cord from the pump to the “fungus”.
2. Attach the free edge of the hose with the fitting to the hole previously made in the housing.

The sink is ready! The principle of operation is this. The pump pumps water and air into the canister (no need to fill it to the brim!). You press the handle of the “gun” and a stream of water hits under pressure.

Important! If you are going to use the car wash in cold weather, it is advisable to equip it with a water heater.

Can be used as a source of energy for the device.

A high pressure washer is a highly efficient unit used for professional cleaning of cars - paint coating, engine compartment, rims, other elements.

The device is necessary to create high pressure, strong water pressure, which ensures cleaning of surfaces and structures.

This type of tool is used by service technicians, but a homemade high-pressure car wash with your own hands will cope with the task just as well.

What parts are needed to assemble a car wash?

Setting up a mini-wash is a simple process. The work begins with the selection of parts for subsequent assembly of the structure. The working part must be assembled from high-quality, proven materials. The components, with the exception of the pump, do not have to be new. But the serviceability is first checked to avoid breakdowns.

1. The pump or motor that creates water pressure is the main part. When choosing, pay attention to performance and the ability to create pressure. For infrequent use, at home, a pressure of 100 bar is sufficient. When installing additional equipment, nozzles require up to 160 bar. Average figures vary between 100–200 units.
2. The electric motor is the power source of the system. At self-assembly It is recommended to choose single-phase devices with a potential of 220V. They are safer and more accessible.
3. Coupling – necessary to connect the pump and the power plant. It is preferable to have models that can perform the functions of a fuse and balance the misalignment of the shafts along the axis.
4. Housing, water container – ensures a uniform supply of water masses. Tanks made of durable plastic or metal are used.
5. The frame is the basis for securely fastening the elements. Often additional wheels are installed at the bottom for mobility and ease of use.
6. A gun with a nozzle and hoses are required to supply water. The hose chosen is high-quality, reinforced.
7. Nozzles - used to change the nature of the water flow. There are many models used to solve specific problems.

You should not skimp on the quality of parts - this will affect the performance of the device.

In order for a homemade high pressure washer to be assembled correctly with your own hands, you will also need other components.

Additional items:

• filter element - a fine mesh that prevents the entry of dirt particles and debris;
• capacitor, single-stage gearbox - optional components, but they make it easier to start, improve the quality of work, and productivity;
• – can be used as a pump, base for a car wash, greatly simplifying assembly;
• performance regulator, unloading valve - parts that ensure safety and efficient operation;
• clamps or hydraulic sealing - will make the connections airtight;
• elements in contact with water are selected from corrosion-resistant alloys.

Having completed the collection of spare parts, you can begin fastening the elements and installing them on the frame. It is important to maintain the ability to repair equipment by more often using threaded connections.

During the assembly process of a car wash, there are several important points that determine the safety of further operation and the absence of malfunctions.

The frame is the basis of the entire structure:

• it is planned to manufacture a system with optimal sizes, for which suitable pipes are selected - round, curved;
• in addition to the wheels, it is advisable to install clamps at the bottom;
• handle - makes transportation easier.

Grounding – safety element:

• a three-core wire is selected;
• you will need a plug with a grounding terminal;
• The socket is grounded.

After preparation, several main steps are performed:

1. Electrical equipment is installed on the frame, including a motor, pump, and other structural elements.
2. A gun with a nozzle is attached, supplying water after pressing a special button. Such devices are used by professionals, but they can also be easily purchased in a store.
3. A high-pressure hose is being installed.

After completing the assembly, connect to the water supply. A 7 m long hose is suitable for this.

How to avoid unexpected device breakdowns

When thinking about how to make a car wash with your own hands, it is advisable to ensure optimal operation, preventing the need for subsequent restoration.

Important points installation usage:

• before starting, all connections and fastenings are checked;
• the filter element needs to be regularly cleaned from contaminants;
• You should not often use the equipment at full power;
• installation battery will protect the device from power surges.

If you assemble the device yourself, subsequent restoration and replacement of rubber rings and seals will not cause any difficulties.

A car wash is used to remove debris, dirt from the car body and other parts. A foam generator allows you to maximize the quality of cleaning. It's also easy to make yourself.

Not selected large number tool:

• roulette;
• knife;
• Bulgarian;
• wrenches;
• pliers.

When thinking about how to make a foam generator for a car wash with your own hands, you should choose and suitable materials, parts for assembly.

Highlights:

1. A pipe with a length of at least 50 cm is required. It is filled with polyethylene sponge for subsequent foam formation.
2. A filter is installed in the form of a mesh to prevent filler from getting into other units.
3. One edge of the pipe must be plugged and a tee must be installed to subsequently secure the foam concentrate tap.
4. Using a fitting, connect the pipe and hose intended for foam.
5. A valve is connected to the other end, providing a flow of compressed air masses.

The characteristics of the foam that will be obtained as a result of the operation of such an installation are determined by the length of the pipe used. The density of filling the surface with a washcloth requires attention. For filling car cosmetics, a container that can withstand the pressure exerted by the system is suitable.

A car wash and a foam generator are useful units that simplify the process of car care. They can easily cope with loads in home use, perfectly replacing factory tools.

Today, there is no longer any need to waste time and effort dealing with dried-on dirt and clogged dust. Every year new modifications of high pressure washers appear on the market. These devices wash not only cars, but also windows, walls and doors of houses, all kinds of household items that are difficult to clean with a brush and rag. Strong water pressure will cope with this task much more effectively. Having such a device at home will save money that would be spent on washing the car at a service center, while water consumption will be minimal.

Internal structure of the sink

The main parts are the engine and the pump; they create the required water pressure. It is recommended to use a single-phase electric motor with a potential of 220 V, it is easily accessible and safe.

To make the case, choose a strong material, metal or durable plastic. But even when using a wear-resistant housing, it is not recommended to use the sink for more than three hours at a time. This will lead to rapid failure.

There are a wide variety of hose attachments available, they serve to facilitate cleaning - different hardness brushes, standard sprayers and soft rollers. If you buy a couple of such attachments, you can significantly increase the functions of the sink, use it as a steam cleaner (a heater is required) or an automatic mop.

Internal pressure

The more pressure is created inside the housing, the stronger the stream of water gushing from the hose will be, which means that the dirt will fall away faster. Pressure must be set carefully, water under high pressure may dent the vehicle or damage fragile parts. Manufacturers recommend setting the pressure in the range of 150-170 bar; 100 bar is enough to clean the machine.

If you can’t clean it with a stream of water, purchase a hose attachment or a turbo cutter. With its help, you can wash wheels, tires and remove accumulated dirt in crevices. To use a turbo cutter you will need 160 bar.

Electric pump

Before purchasing a pump to design a sink, you need to choose the right device. The material the pump is made of will determine its durability.

A plastic pump will soon fail. Such a pump It is not recommended to use more than 20 minutes at a time. Reliable, but expensive, they are made of brass, since this material does not corrode.

How to use the mini-wash

In order for the sink to work for a long time without breakdowns, you should adhere to the following rules:

1. Before starting use, be sure to check the operation of the washer.
2. Be sure to change the filter after each use.
3. If the power source is unstable, install a battery on the sink.
4. If necessary, promptly replace damaged parts.
5. Install surge protection.

If you follow all the rules, your sink will last a long time.

Homemade sink

If you set out to make a sink yourself, you will need the following materials:

Selecting canister volume depends on the purpose for which the homemade high-pressure washer will be used. A five-liter canister is quite enough for a passenger car.

Choose a flexible and durable hose; it should not break. The most suitable option would be a hose with nylon braid and consisting of several layers. You cannot skimp on this component.

The pump can be used either foot or electric. Use electric pump more convenient, no need to make extra physical work foot. However, the cost of such a pump will be several times more expensive.

Coupling and fitting choose at your discretion, the main thing is that they have a tight connection with each other.

Make a hole in the canister that matches the size of the coupling. Next, insert the coupling into the hole and screw in the fitting. To be stored in a canister required pressure, all structural parts are connected with sealant.

The lid on the canister must be solid and durable.. For better sealing, place a rubber gasket on the bottom of the lid. Then drill a hole in it and insert the tubeless tire fungus.

The canister is tightly screwed on with the lid, and the cord from the pump is connected to the pre-embedded fungus. The hose is attached to the hole in the canister using a fitting. The device is ready!

The principle of operation of such a device is simple: using a pump, air is supplied to the canister (there is no need to fill the canister with water to the brim). The created pressure will displace water when you press the gun handle.

If homemade device will also be used in cold weather, it is worth equipping heating element. For such a sink you will need a canister with a large volume; it will lose its mobility, but with the help hot water dirt will be cleaned much faster and more efficiently.

How to make a pressure washer

Over time, more and more widespread domestic markets received high-pressure washers, mainly used for cleaning cars. Using a similar device, you can wash both the body part and the bottom and engine compartment. The undoubted advantage of this device is that a precisely directed jet is used to remove dirt from the surface of the car without the use of a powerful water pump. Do-it-yourself high-pressure washing is a very profitable idea, allowing you to significantly save money spent on periodic washing of the car. If we take into account domestic weather conditions, when at any time of the year there is dirt on the roads in any of the states of aggregation, then such a wash will pay for itself very quickly.

The easiest way to do your own washing is to use an air compressor.

Basic principles of creating a sink

Main functional element washing machine is a pump that meets a number of requirements. Thus, it must show high functional performance per unit of time and operate in normal mode at a pressure of about 100-200 bar. Many plunger pumps equipped with an electric drive have these characteristics. When choosing a pump for your future washing, special attention should be paid to the material that became the basis for its working part. The best option is if ceramics are used for the pump pistons or durable metal. The best option for making a cylinder head is brass. Durable components are the key to a long service life.

The most profitable would be to purchase a pump with a working capacity of approximately fifteen liters per minute and a pressure of up to two hundred bar.

It turns out that such a pump in normal operation will operate at 80-90% of its maximum power.

Selection of parts for washing

When choosing an electric motor, you should pay attention to models that have a power supply of about 220 or 308 volts. If the high-pressure washer is used at home, it is advisable to use a single-phase 220 volt connection, as it will not entail additional costs and meets all safety requirements. To ensure optimal starting of certain motors, it is advisable to use additional capacitor units. Thus, the performance of the pump directly depends on the number of engine revolutions: the higher the frequency, the greater the performance.

But it is worth considering that working in this mode may negatively affect its resources. You should not give preference to too fast models. The maximum permissible rotation speed in this case is up to two thousand revolutions with a power of two or three kilowatts.

A high-pressure washer of a certain design allows you to provide the required pump performance when using a single-stage gearbox operating using a V-belt drive. Their gear ratio depends on the parameters of the pulleys (driven and driven). The characteristics of the distance between the axes of rotation also play an equally important role in the operation of gearboxes.

A coupling is usually used to secure the pump and motor. Most suitable option– a soft coupling that can compensate for minimal axial misalignment of the shafts and act as a safety element in case the gearbox or pump jams.

Very important structural element Any sink has a container for storing water. In order to ensure maximum pump performance, it is necessary to use a certain volume of liquid. To do this, it is possible to use a special liquid tank that can be recharged from the water supply network. It is imperative to install a filter element (this can be an ordinary fine mesh) at the outlet point from the tank, designed to clean the liquid from dirt particles and prevent blockages from entering the pump. To enhance the cleaning effect, you can add a special or regular detergent to the liquid.

A do-it-yourself car wash must have a pump performance regulator in its design. Typically, this device is connected to an automatic unloading valve, which can, in a critical situation, redirect the liquid back to the tank so that no harmful load is created on the pump.

In order to fix all the structural elements of the sink, a special frame is used. For its construction, you can use hollow curved pipes. To ensure ease of use, you can fix a pair of small support wheels in its lower part and place a stop to give the structure stability during use. One of the ends of the frame can be equipped with a special handle designed for transporting the sink around the yard or garage.

The main structural element homemade car wash is a water container. To ensure maximum pump performance, a certain volume of liquid must be used.

One of essential elements, which make up a DIY sink, are high-pressure hoses. A standard, not too thick, reinforced rubber or plastic hose can act as a sleeve. It should be taken into account that all structural connections of hoses must be made in compliance with tightness conditions, on the one hand, and not be afraid of corrosion and can be easily disassembled, on the other. To equip the fasteners, you can use fittings or threaded bushings made of hard aluminum alloys or brass. For this purpose, it is possible to install bayonet mounts.

When building a sink with your own hands, you must also select a gun equipped with a nozzle. Thanks to its shape, an imitation of the shape of the working jet is obtained. Actually, appearance it resembles the gun used at gas stations. To start dispensing water from the nozzle, press the handle. This is a definite advantage, as it allows you to save a large amount of water: liquid is supplied only when it is needed, when you press the gun handle. Execute shut-off valve doing it yourself is quite problematic; the simplest and most reliable option would be to purchase a ready-made tip.

The high pressure pump from a car washer is perfect as a compressor for a car wash.

When performing high pressure, care must be taken to create grounding. For this purpose, a three-core flexible wire equipped with double insulation and a plug equipped with a grounding terminal are often used. It is worth considering that the power outlet also needs reliable grounding using a circuit.

It is necessary to periodically inspect all connections and fastenings and tighten them if necessary. The filter element of the tank should be regularly cleaned of accumulated debris.

It is undesirable to use a jet of water with high pressure too often - this will cause excessive load on the pressure pump and cause damage to the car's paintwork. It is recommended to apply pressure that can contactlessly rid the machine of the main layer of dirt on the surface being treated, and then use a brush to manually remove the remaining dirt.

How does a high pressure washer work?

Thanks to devices operating at high pressure in the range of 120-150 bar, dirt can be removed from almost any surface. You should be prepared for the fact that a small layer of plaque will still remain after such treatment.

Any sink must have a device that regulates the nozzle. By adjusting the position of the nozzle, you can change the pressure or shape of the jet. The nozzle can be equipped with foam generators and additional mud cutters.

If you wish, you can design a sink with your own hands that can be fed not only directly from the water supply, but also from a special reservoir - for example, a barrel of water. To improve the pressure in the sink, you can place the barrel on a slight elevation.

In case of a power outage or using the sink far from sockets, you can equip the device not only with a water tank, but also with a powerful battery.

The undoubted advantage of sinks of this type is greater water savings, in contrast to manual washing.

Return to contents

Washing device

There should be a motor inside the high-pressure washer that causes the rotation and opening of other parts - a valve, washer or sprayer. The result of its work is the unwinding of the washer and the movement of water through the sprayer according to a forward-return trajectory, as a result of which water enters the sprayer valve. The result of the action of many mechanisms is the formation of powerful pressure and water supply.

It is advisable to choose a body for washing from impact-resistant plastic. The same requirements apply to the hose connecting to the sprayer, since it will have to interact with strong water pressure.

Regardless of how durable the materials from which the sink is made, it is highly recommended not to use it for more than two hours at a time. An operating cycle that is too long can lead to rapid wear of the component parts and reduce the service life of the device several times.

If you equip the sink with additional attachments, it can perform the functions of household appliances. When using additional attachments, the washer can be used both for washing a car and for cleaning roofs, facades and floors.

Main parts of a pressure washer

A DIY sink consists of the following elements:

• durable wear-resistant body;
• engine running on gasoline or electricity;
• high pressure pump;
• containers for water and detergents;
• additional nozzles;
• water filters;
• hoses.

The operating principle of a homemade car wash is extremely simple. Once connected, water from a water supply or a special container enters the sink container and is pumped through a pump. In maximum load mode, the washer operates at a pressure of about 160 bar. For comparison, a stream of water from a regular tap is supplied under a pressure of five bar.

The next step is to supply water through a hose to the gun with a nozzle. It is advisable to equip the gun with a special nozzle that allows you to change the nature of the water flow - from a concentrated jet to spraying. The nature of the water supply should be determined based on how the surface will be cleaned. For example, to cover large area(veranda area or car body) the best option there will be a fan stream. In order to remove fragments of stubborn dirt, it is advisable to use a point water supply.

Add-ons can include a nozzle with a rotating nozzle, a rotating brush and much more. The main advantage of using nozzles is contactless surface cleaning, which significantly reduces the risk of damage to the paintwork of the car body or decorative surface facade tiles.

When choosing parts for washing, you should not strive to achieve maximum power. A sink used at home can function normally at an operating pressure of 100 bar. Moreover, for a person who has not previously encountered such equipment, it will be problematic to operate a washer operating under high pressure.
