Bypass Cool™ Pump Protection for your Pressure Washer

Bypass Cool™ Pump Protection for your Pressure Washer

On most pressure washers, when the operator stops pulling the trigger on the gun, the unloader diverts the flow of water back to the pump. The water in this bypass loop can heat up quickly and could damage your pump in as little as 5 minutes (sometimes sooner depending on the configuration of the system). Hydro Tek offers Bypass Cool™ Pump Protection as a standard feature on HD Series belt drive pressure washers and all HN Series pressure washers to protect and extend the life of your pump. This Bypass Cool System sends the water to the float tank of your pressure washer enabling it to act as a radiator when the trigger is not being pulled. This allows the machine to be in bypass much longer without causing damage to the pump. A Bypass System is also available as an option on any hot or cold water pressure washer mounted onto a Hydro Tek tank skid or trailer. This is a factory installed option (order part# APS50) which will bypass the water back to the water supply tank.

  • Advantages of a Hot Water Pressure Washer

    Simply by heating up the water, a hot water pressure washer delivers dramatically improved cleaning power compared to a cold water machine. Hot water pressure washers are especially useful for cleaning sticky, greasy, or oily surfaces, because they will loosen the dirt much faster without the large amounts of soap, detergent, or other cleaning chemicals that must be used with a cold water system.

  • Hot Water Pressure Washer Applications

    A hot water pressure washer is essential for any cleanup job involving a sticky, greasy, or oily mess, as well as for applications where a surface must be sanitized. With a variety of models available, including self-contained mobile units with gas, diesel, or electric power, Hydro Tek hot water pressure washers can go anywhere and clean anything. Some common applications include heavy equipment cleaning, vehicle cleaning, graffiti removal, restaurant hood vent cleaning, and livestock facility cleaning.

Quality & Innovation Since 1985

Hydro Tek

From simple beginnings in 1985, Hydro Tek has grown to become the most trusted name in the pressure washer manufacturing industry.

How did we do it? By continually focusing on quality and reliability as the key to customer satisfaction, and by incorporating the latest technologies into our design and manufacturing processes.

By 1991, we were using computer-aided drafting systems to refine our product designs and improve efficiency. In 1997, we brought the power of computers to the shop floor by incorporating laser-cutting and other CNC manufacturing machinery, and in 2001 we began focusing on improving efficiency through the latest manufacturing techniques. The end result has been superior products delivered at a superior value to our customers. Through the next decade, we look forward to fulfilling our vision of making our products the "obvious choice" for all your industrial and commercial cleaning needs.
