Is your pressure washer Emission Compliant?

Is your pressure washer Emission Compliant?

All gasoline engine powered pressure washers must now meet strict rules and regulations in the United States and in California for emissions.  They must also be approved for emission compliance to be sold anywhere in the US or California.  The USEPA (Environmental Protection Agency) issues the Certificate of Conformity for compliance for 49 states (all states except California).  California issues Executive Orders (EO’s) for all machines that will be sold into California of bought in California.  It is important to verify that the pressure washer that you are considering purchasing in California has an EO issued from CARB (California Air Resources Board).  If the pressure washer is only EPA approved for 49 state sales then it can’t be bought or sold and used in California.  You would be in violation and could be fined as well as the company buying and reselling.  Make sure you buy an approved pressure washer when contemplating your next purchase.  If you are not in California then make sure the pressure washer system is EPA approved with a Certificate of Conformity to ensure that you have a complying system.  All of Hydro Tek Pressure Washers Systems are USEPA and CARB compliant machines.

  • 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.
