Three Tips to Buy Portable Pressure Washers

by Lauren Zwiebel

Portable pressure washers are handy machines that make hard surface cleaning easier and more efficient. Many models of these portable cleaning machines are available at present. You may find it difficult to choose the right one for yourself. The following are three basic tips that would help you to choose the right machine.

Tip 1: Power Source
For all kinds of portable pressure washers, the source of power is very important. Pressure washing machines have either an electric motor or a combustion engine to power the pump. Machines with an electric motor are often not ideal for outdoor use, as electrical outlets may not be easily available in all outdoor areas. Machines using a combustion engine, that is, gasoline, propane, or diesel pressure washers, are more mobile for outdoor cleaning, but should not be used indoors without proper ventilation. Toxic fumes could build up.

Tip 2: Type of Machine
There are two types of portable pressure washers offered by Daimer® in their Super Max™ series—wheel-attached and truck-mountable. Truck-mountable machines, such as the Super Max™ 12300 are easily mounted onto trucks or trailers for movement over larger areas. They are often ideal for construction areas as well as cleaning parks and parking lots. Wheel mounted machines, such as the Super Max™ 7000, are ideal for cleaning smaller areas, such as store fronts and sidewalks in front of buildings.

Tip 3: Find Right Supplier
A simple search on the internet will result in a number of companies that supply pressure cleaners. It is important to choose a supplier that offers quality machines and is well known for their products.

What are Steam Pressure Washers and their Uses

by Lauren Zwiebel

There are steam cleaners and carpet steam cleaners – and now there are steam pressure washers. Steam cleaners provide steam output at very high temperatures to clean hard surfaces. Carpet steam cleaners are essentially carpet cleaners that provide heated output.

So, what are steam pressure washers? This post provides the answers.

Types of Pressure Washers
Pressure washing machines can be classified into three types based on their output temperature: cold water machines, hot water machines, and steam machines. Cold water machines do not have a heating element and can only accept pre-heated water. Hot water machines can raise the output temperature up to 210°F.

Steam pressure washers can provide an output temperature of 330°F, the highest for any pressure washing machine. The main advantage of these machines is that they can provide both high temperature and high pressure.

Uses of Steam Pressure Washers
Steam pressure washers from Daimer®, a reputable supplier, have a variety of uses. Machines in their Super Max™ series, such as the Super Max™ 12200, are used for heavy duty industrial degreasing, one of the hardest commercial cleaning tasks. These are also machines used for auto detailing.

Machines with high temperature output clean more efficiently and finish the job quickly. However, look got machines with low flow rates to ensure minimal water use and wastage.

Pressure Washers – More about the Trailer Mounted Versions

by Lauren Zwiebel

Regardless of what your specific cleaning requirements are, portable pressure washers are very popular. When it comes to industrial cleaning operations that involve maintaining vast areas, your power cleaning equipment must be portable enough to ensure high productivity and efficiency. For this reason, Daimer® offers you the Super Max™ series pressure cleaning machines in wheeled, trailer mounted and truck mounted versions.

The huge water tanks available with wheel mounted versions of pressure washers like the Super Max™ 6000 enables non-stop operation for long periods. The high-quality, stainless steel components in this power washing system come within a compact design so that you can easily mount it on the sturdy frame featuring roller wheels. The wheeled configuration also makes the power cleaner easy to maneuver.

More advanced versions of pressure washers with higher cleaner efficiencies generally feature trailer mountable configurations. The Super Max™ 12000 is an example of a trailer-mountable power cleaning machine perfectly suited to manage the tough cleaning jobs in industrial environments. The water tanks of such pressure cleaning equipment can be mounted on trucks or skids.

Unlike wheeled versions, the trailer mounted versions of pressure washers require some space so that the truck can be parked close by the application. As a result, the truck mounted are often unsuitable for maintaining indoor areas. They are, however, the best choices of maintenance professionals when it comes to managing contracted cleaning activities in industrial zones.

The challenges marine maintenance professionals face on a daily basis are completely different from the cleaning requirements in other fields. Maintaining boats and ships is among the toughest cleaning tasks out there. Oil spills and black algae can quickly turn beautiful docks into dirty, stinky, and slippery areas. To avoid this, docks need to be maintained regularly. Instead of using traditional techniques, there is now the option of using advanced cleaning machines such as pressure washers from Daimer®.

The docks of marine vessels can get messy due to a variety of reasons such as oil spills, beer spills, and leaks from fish guts, fuel tanks, or sewer tanks. To efficiently clean up such tough deposits, try using the high-grade pressure washers in the Super Max™ range from Daimer®, such as the Super Max™ 6000. Constructed from the best quality housing materials and stainless steel components, these pressure washers offer the perfect solution for easily maintaining different surfaces in boats and ships. To put it simply, you can eliminate scrubbing and wiping surfaces when using these machines.

Although steam cleaning machines possess high steam temperatures, they are not adequate for marine cleaning jobs due to low pressure levels. The tough dirt deposits generally found on ship decks cannot be washed away with low pressure levels. For this reason, maintenance professionals recommend using pressure washers like the Super Max™ 6000 that can reach pressure levels of 750 psi. This power cleaner can also attain steam temperatures as high as 330ºF, making it capable of providing excellent cleaning action. This power cleaning machine also features tri-mode configurations.
