These Two Questions May Be All a Person Needs to Select a Pressure Washer

For many of your clients, they may have a hard time figuring out which pressure washer they want. They may go back and forth and come into your shop several times before making up their minds. While there are obviously enormous differences between options and you do want your clients to choose the one that works best for them, you also want them to make a sale.

Following are the two questions that can be all a person needs to answer to decide which pressure washer will work best for their needs. Read on to learn more and then reach out to Hydro Tek online or by calling 800-274-9376 .

The two questions

First, a person needs to ask themselves if they’re going to need a pressure washer that has wheels so that it can be moved around easily. Or are they planning to primarily use it for items that can be moved to the pressure washer?

The second question is: Will they be using it on a job site? If so, they’re likely to need a gas pressure washer. On the other hand, if you’re not going to use it on job sites but in another application, then they need to ask themselves if they think they’ll have easy enough access to electricity to use an electric model.

Compare electric and gas pressure washers

If a person is cleaning indoors and using an electric pressure washer then they’re going to be limited to using it near a source of electricity. Many people assume this means an electric pressure washer isn’t ideal if it’s going to be used outside, but again this depends on where it’s going to be used. If it will be near an electric outlet, then an electrical option may be fine.

Water must be considered

The vast majority of pressure washers get water from a garden host or a spigot. However, others are designed to pull water from large tanks. These are better options if on-site cleaning will be done because the unit can be used at sites that don’t have water.

Consider how often you’ll use it to decide on the quality of washer you need

Your clients will need to think about how often they think they’ll use the hot or cold water pressure washer in an average week. Those who think they’ll be using it for fewer than 20 hours a week may choose a mid-range model that offers bare-bones design but has a direct-drive pump.

For companies that are going to use a pressure washer more than 20 hours a week, a top quality unit is necessary. The good news of course is that Hydro Tek offers exceptionally high quality units at competitive prices.

  • 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.

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.
