Marine Cleaning With Pressure Washers

by


Pressure washers are usually associated with high-profile hard surface cleaning or industrial cleaning. A typical example of the use of these machines is heavy-duty industrial degreasing. The main source of the power of pressure washing machines comes from a combination of pressure level and temperature settings. Sophisticated machines from Daimer® can reach pressure levels as high as 8000 psi (non-heated machines) and temperature levels up to 330°F.

The cleaning of boats and ships can be a difficult task, especially when barnacles and algae attach to the boat. Using pressure washers with powerful pressure levels can help blast away these impurities, keeping your boat clean and well maintained.

The following information provided helps you understand pressure washers for marina cleaning.

Cleaning Boats and Vessels
Keeping a boat clean and well maintained is one of the most important marine cleaning tasks. Boats and marine vessels have to be cleaned regularly. Dirt and impurities become more menacing if the surface is in regular contact with water. Almost all kinds of surfaces, wood, metal, or fiber, tend to be damaged by the combination of water and dirt.

Pressure washers can blast away dirt and impurities from hard surfaces with their high pressure output. An extremely high pressure output is not required for cleaning marine vessels. Pressure washing machines with an output pressure level of 1500 psi, such as Daimer®’s Super Max™ 9000 would be ideal for marine cleaning tasks. This machine features flow rates of 2.8 GPM and steam temperatures up to 250°F.
