Homeowner Uses For Power / Pressure Washers

A power washer is a great multitasking tool to use around your home. They save time and money and clean much more efficiently than hand washing. Here is a list of major areas that can be cleaned in and around your household residence.

Roofs

Those unsightly black streaks on your roof asphalt shingles aren’t necessarily telling you that you need to replace your shingles with new one. Asphalt shingles can build up a growth of mildew and mold over time that can discolor your roof shingles. This mold can be removed easily with a combination of Aquatech-USA’s “Ecoguard-321” and “Oxy-Boost” detergents in conjunction with hot water pressure washer that will kill the organics on the shingles. The solution will immediately attack the mold spores killing it to the root. After applying, you can either pressure wash the roof down or let the product alone and have the rain naturally remove the mold over a few weeks’ time.

Gutters

Gutter cleaning can be some messy and dangerous work. Removing the wet leaves and debris while balancing yourself on a ladder can be a real safety hazard. Aquatech-USA has telescoping wands and gutter cleaner attachments to connect to a pressure washer, so that cleaning out your gutters can be done safely from the ground level. Aquatech-USA also carries detergents like “Gutter Cutter” and “Gutter Cleaner” that will remove the black streaks and stains off the gutter and rain down spout exteriors making them look like new.

House Exterior / Trim

Be it wood clapboard, cedar shakes, vinyl siding or aluminum siding, a hot water pressure washer will remove old paint, green algae, mold spores and mildew. Power washers are great for preparing the wood surface for paint to adhere to the siding for a durable long lasting finish. Using Aquatech-USA detergents in conjunction with our pressure washers will bring a shiny gloss back to that old dull looking vinyl siding, making it look like new. Our washers and detergents will remove the oxidized paint on your aluminum siding and trim and raise the value of your home without having to replace the siding on your house. Aquatech-USA has 18-foot and 24-foot telescoping wands and soap shooter (that can apply detergent almost 30 feet away) attachments to connect to a pressure washer, so that cleaning hard to reach areas can be done safely from the ground level.

Driveways, Sidewalks & Walkways

What better way to clean of your asphalt, concrete or paver stone driveway of oil stains, dirt, debris, moss and weeds than to use a hot water pressure washer. Aquatech-USA offers multiple attachments to turn your pressure washer into a water broom helping your driveway clear or a surface cleaner to remove stubborn dirt, chewing gum stains from sidewalk or even blow away the weeds and moss build up on stone, brick, block and paver walkways.

Outdoor Decks

Every few years, your wooden deck needs to be stained, a hot water pressure washer is the best and safest way to clean up the deck. Revitalizing your deck from that gray drab look to a new fresh cut wood look makes a world of difference. The hot water will kill any mold, mildew or vegetation stains that you might have on your deck, be it wood, vinyl, composite or trex deck materials. Cleaning the wooden deck with a power washer and letting it dry for a few days will allow your stain or paint to adhere properly and extend your frequency of having to re-stain. 

Swimming Pool & Hot Tubs

A hot water pressure washer can keep your swimming pool and hot tub area a clean and safe area. The power washer will remove algae build up off your pool deck and sidewalks keeping them slip free. Another use for the washer is to cleanup during the shutdown and startup of your swimming pool. Hot water pressure washers are great for concrete in-ground swimming pools when they need to be prepped repainting or redoing the epoxy coating. Power washers are great for cleaning up vinyl, plastic and steel swimming pool furniture, fiberglass slides and diving boards, aluminum exteriors of above ground pool and fiberglass interiors of hot tubs and spas.

Automobiles

Keeping your automobiles clean can add years to the longevity and help increase the eventual resale value, along with reducing the cost and frequency of repairs. Washing your cars, trucks and motorcycles by hand can be a hassle having to drag out a garden hose, bucket and sponges. Aquatech-USA has permanently installed pressure washer systems that are ready to use, just unroll the pressure hose and wand off the hose reel mounted on a wall or the machine itself and wash away the dirt, road film, brake dust, road salt and mud. Aquatech-USA offer many different accessories to attach to your pressure washer: undercarriage cleaners, detergent foamers, rotary brushes, flow thru brushes and soap injectors to remove grease, oxidized automotive paint, tar stains, tree sap, bug residue, bird droppings and other tough stains. Aquatech-USA has a variety of detergents and soaps to choose from that are safe for you, your vehicle and the environment. Our detergents, soaps and waxes are offered in many different sized packages from 1 gallon bottles to 5 gallon pails to 55 gallon drums, so you can choose the size that best fits your needs.

Recreational Vehicles

Save time cleaning your RV, ATV, boat, dirt bike and motorcycle with a pressure washer versus by hand using a bucket, garden hose and sponge. Revitalize that RV’s exterior after a long haul cross country trip that picks up highway road film, bug residue and back road dirt. Remove the caked on mud and muck that embeds itself in those intricate parts of your ATV and dirt bike. In boat cleaning, it is important to remove slime and barnacles from the boat’s hull. As these things build up on the hull, they can make the boat run less efficiently on fuel. Plus boats need to be cleaned off as they enter and exit between each body of water to stop cross contaminating the waters with different diseases and microbes that can kill plant life and fish.
