Pressure Washing Applications in Restaurants

by

high pressure washer
Before pressure washers became standard cleaning equipment in commercial kitchens and food processing units, hygiene was a major issue. The dining areas would be spotless and gleaming, but the kitchens were often messy and unclean. Thick layers of grease, with an added layer of dust or hydrocarbon deposits, and the endless hard work of trying to scrape off the dirt summed up what happened in the kitchens after hours.

Thankfully, more advanced pressure washers have made the task of kitchen cleaning much simpler and faster. Today,heated and non-heated cleaning equipment is used for removing grime through a jet of water released at high pressure levels. Daimer® offers an array of systems for different cleaning tasks: including cold water, hot water, steam, and tri-mode pressure washing systems.

Daimer® offers cold water machines, for example, that an reach pressure levels of 7000 psi, releasing water at a flow rate of up to 9 GPM. Green cleaners mixed with non-heated water can remove much of the dry, loose dirt, such as dust or food particles that are not removed using cold water alone. For these applications, Daimer®'s hot water and steam systems offer enhanced cleaning power, however, due to the ability of high temperature to dissolve grease and other stubborn stains. While these systems do not require additional detergents, pairing them with green cleaners will enhance the speed and overall efficiency of the cleaning process. For example, utilizing Eco-Green® Ultra-Power™ Degreaser with a pressure cleaner quickly dissolves and eliminates stubborn grease deposits on kitchen floors and other surfaces.

Using a pressure washer, you can clean the exhaust system such as ducts and hoods. A weekly wash will keep floors and tiles shiny and grime free. However, the pressure level and flow rate must be considered for such applications, as high pressure levels may damage delicate surfaces and high flow rates can cause flooding if used in areas without proper drainage. Do not forget the restaurant exteriors – the porch, parking lot, and waste receptacles are places that turn dirty and smelly if not cleaned regularly using high pressure equipment

Why Pressure Washers are Ideal for Degreasing

by


When it comes to the degreasing, pressure washers are not only safer than most chemicals, they are more effective as well. Relying on harsh chemicals to clear up heavy grease is not only harmful for the user; it can also leave behind toxic traces, as well. Though, trying to remove grease manually can be a near-impossible task as heavy grease is one of the toughest substances to remove. A pressure washing machine, on the other hand, offers effective cleaning power without the use of harmful chemicals. To safely enhance the power of pressure washing systems for the most demanding applications, one may consider the use of green chemicals with their machine.

Daimer® offers a wide range of cold water, hot water and steam pressure washers to suit different cleaning needs. To understand how a pressure washing machine can be effective in removing grease, it helps to know how these systems work. Pressure washers use the power and force of pressurized water to blast away dirt from the surface. Not only do pressure washing machines have different pressure levels, the nozzles can be adjusted for different spray configurations, as well.

When it comes to degreasing, steam pressure washers are often the best choice. Hot water systems can be used for light degreasing tasks or with the addition of a green degreaser. While cold water systems are not the first choice for degreasing, they can accomplish this task if an additional degreasing chemical is used. For industrial cleaning jobs that deal with heavy grease, steam pressure washing machines offer the necessary steam cleaning power coupled with high pressure levels. This allows operators to soften grease deposits so they can be washed away easily.

Tough Degreasing Jobs? Leave It to Pressure Washers

by


Degreasing with Pressure wasers

One way to determine the power of pressure washers is to look at their temperature options. Reputable distributors like Daimer® now offer an exciting range of pressure cleaning machines that utilize cold water, hot water, or steam to accomplish the cleaning process. To handle highly challenging cleaning jobs, heated versions of pressure cleaning equipment is recommended. Since such power cleaners eject hot water or steam at high temperatures, they are extremely effective in dissolving and removing dirt, grime, stains, oil, and grease from different surfaces.

Choosing heated versions of pressure washers are a good idea especially when you need to clean greasy industrial surfaces in food manufacturing plants. Power cleaners that eject cold water are often unsuitable for such situations. The cold water will change the greasy deposits into clumps that can be very difficult to clean unless a degreasing chemical is used as well, like Eco-Green® Ultra-Power™ Degreaser. On the other hand, the hot water or steam generated by heated models of pressure washers will almost instantly dissolve greasy deposits, enabling the machine to easily blast these deposits away.

The Super Max™ 12800 is among the top selling models of Daimer®'s pressure washers. This trailer-mountable, tri-mode pressure cleaner can generate cold water, hot water, or steam, enabling users to tack virtually every cleaning application. With a moderate flow rate of 2 GPM, high steam temperatures reaching up to 330°F, and a moderate pressure level of 1000 PSI, the Super Max™ 12800 can effectively eliminate stains and grease from various surfaces like stone, brick, floors, stainless steel, stone, driveways, sidewalks, and industrial equipment.

Benefits of Using Hot Water Pressure Washers

by



One main factor that determines the cleaning force of pressure washers is the available temperature options. Daimer® now brings you an amazing range of cold water, hot water, and steam based pressure cleaning machines. For challenging cleaning tasks, it is a good idea to purchase hot water or steam pressure cleaning equipment. By ejecting hot water at high temperatures, pressure cleaning machines can eliminate most dirt, grease, grime, oil, and stains from different surfaces.

Hot water pressure washers are especially handy for greasy industrial areas such as food manufacturing plants. If you use cold water based power cleaners in greasy areas, the grease deposits solidify into clumps, unless a green degreasing chemical is used in conjunction with the machine. However, the water ejected by hot water based pressure washers quickly dissolves stubborn grease deposits and washes them away. Steam temperatures, however, are the most effective in rapidly dissolving the most stubborn stains and grease deposits.

If you are interested in hot water pressure washers, the Super Max™ 12800 AST® from Daimer® is a good choice. In addition to being trailer-mountable, this tri-mode power cleaner can independently function as a cold water, hot water, and steam pressure cleaner. High steam temperature levels up to 330°F, a moderate flow rate of 2 GPM, and pressure levels of 1000 psi create a superb cleaning force that effectively eliminates grease and stains from surfaces such as brick, stone, concrete, stainless steel, floors, industrial equipment, sidewalks and driveways. The innovative AST® technology allows the pump to automatically shut off after remaining idle for over 30 seconds; this reduces unwanted wear on the machine.

What Can Cold Water Pressure Washers Do?

by


What Can Cold Water Pressure Washers Do

When it comes to pressure washers, most people hear about their strong cleaning abilities by using either hot water or steam. This is because these machines are ideal for tackling jobs that involve heavy degreasing or removing hardened sedimentation. There are also many cleaning applications that do not require the additional power afforded by high temperatures. For these applications, cold water pressure washers are ideal. In fact, cold water machines have a number of benefits over other pressure washing machines.

One of the biggest advantages is price. Since cold water pressure washers do not have heating elements, the units are considerably less expensive. They are also often smaller and lighter, making them much easier to use and maneuver. These pressure washing machines are ideal for indoor use since they create no exhaust. For cleaning commercial areas and debris from floors, these cold water units generally offer sufficient cleaning power. They are also ideal for cleaning surfaces that may be sensitive to the high temperatures that hot water and steam pressure washers generate.

Daimer® recognizes the need for cold water pressure washing machines that can be used for industrial settings. In order to deal with these tough cleaning jobs, many pressure washing machines have higher pressure rates, some reaching up to 7000 psi. Coupled with water flow rates of up to 9 GPM, these machines are powerful cleaning products. For extra customer convenience, some models also come with an optional two-gun operation and wet sandblasting kit.

Why Tri-Mode Pressure Washers Are the Ultimate Machines

by



One of the key aspects that influences the cleaning force of pressure washers is the temperature level attained by the machine. The three basic versions of pressure cleaners are hot water models, cold water models, and steam models. However, there is also another class called tri-mode power washers.

Daimer®, leading distributors of quality pressure washers, now offers you the Super Max™ series of pressure cleaners. The cold water versions are appropriate for commercial cleaning applications. Since cold water power washers do not have to heat water, they feature no fuel tanks or heating elements and are thus more compact than the heated versions.

Hot water pressure washers utilize the power of pressurized water at temperatures up to 210ºF to effectively clean off grease, grime, and tough stains from a variety of surfaces. However, for the most effective cleaning results, you must have steam power cleaners that generate super-hot steam at around 330°F temperature to simultaneously clean and sanitize the different surfaces.

Tri-mode pressure washers individually function as any of the three other pressure washing versions and therefore offer you the advantages of all the three versions. In addition to its cold water functions and high pressure levels, tri-mode versions like the Super Max™ 12200 can attain hot water temperatures up to 210ºF and extremely high steam temperatures up to 330ºF.

Each power washer temperature setting has its benefits.

Original Pressure Washers

by



Pressure washers are come in many different varieties. To differentiate these machines, pressure washers are often categorized by their intended use, pressure levels, temperature levels, flow rate, power supply, and other features.

According to the power supply, there are three types of pressure cleaning equipment — electric, gas, and propane. Each has its advantages and disadvantages.

Let us discuss some benefits of gas and propane pressure cleaning equipment in comparison to electric pressure cleaning equipment.

1.Propane and gas pressure washers are ideal for cleaning jobs outside like pavements, swimming pools, trucks, gates, automobiles, equipment, and so on. These machines do not need an electric connection; therefore, these machines eliminate the need for long power cords that might be required for cleaning places where there is no power outlet in the vicinity.
2.Gas or propane pressure cleaning machines often have more powerful motors than their electric counterparts. They are ideal for cleaning hard to remove stains and dirt from outdoor surfaces like trucks and driveways that get heavily soiled with dirt and grease.
3.Gas and propane models generate exhaust, and should not be used indoors without sufficient ventilation. On the other hand, electric pressure washers produce no exhaust and are much quieter, making them ideal for interior applications.

Choosing the Right Power Method for You

by


pressure washer

Pressure washers are one of the most powerful types of cleaning equipment. There are certain types of cleaning work other types of cleaning devices, such as steam cleaners and carpet cleaners, are not suitable. For example, to remove stain marks and dirt from hard surfaces such as walkways, compound walls, and concrete benches, it is necessary to have a pressure washer with both a high temperature and pressure output, as steam cleaners and carpet cleaners do not offer sufficient power.

Pressure washers can be classified in many ways. One useful standard is based on the energy source. Normally, three types of power are used in these devices: electricity, propane, and gasoline. For outdoor cleaning applications, an elect rical source may not be readily available. Therefore, propane or gasoline is used as the energy source in a majority of mobile, exterior pressure washers. These gases can be stored in a cylinder and refilled when required.

Another advantage of gas-powered pressure washer equipment is that these devices can produce very high pressure and temperature levels. Some of the latest pressure washers supplied by Daimer®, one of the most popular distributors of cleaning equipment, can provide pressure levels up to 8000 psi and a flow rate of up to seven gallons per minute. Gasoline and propane are used as fuels in such high-powered cleaning devices.

In addition, gas-powered cleaning machines allow continuous working, as these are not affected by power cuts or electrical failure.

How Pressure Washers Can Help With Metal Surface Pre-Treatment

by


pressure washing machines

The cleaning power of pressure washers can also extends to the pre-treatment of metal surfaces, with the right equipment. There are certain pressure washer models that are suited for phosphatizing metal surfaces; this is a process of treating the metal to prevent things like rust and corrosive build-up. This process is also used to treat the metal so that paints and primers can readily adhere to the surface. The Super Max® 15400 AF from Daimer® offers this feature along with a number of other options, making it a truly versatile machine.

The Super Max™ 15000 AF series is a line of stationary pressure washers that offer steam, hot water and cold water pressure washing features. Its steam temperatures can go up to 330º F while it features lower pressure levels of around 700 psi. These units have a flow rate that is approximately 3 GPM. When in hot water mode, these machines can reach temperatures between 180 º F and 220 º F.

Its phosphatizing system uses a downward injection; this means that the chemicals used only come into contact with the nozzle, trigger gun, wand, injector and hose. This gives the user greater control; these particular components are also easy to protect from corrosion. These pressure washers also have a dual lance with a high pressure and low pressure nozzle. A crossover valve controls the water flow to these nozzles.

These pressure washers also come with an optional multi-gun feature as well as an optional wet sandblasting kit.
