Cordless Power Washers

The terms ‘power washing’ and ‘pressure washing’ are generally used interchangeably but there is a distinct difference between the two. A power washer is a portable handheld device that can be used on the go. A pressure washer is a free-standing stationary machine with a hose and a lance, and typically requires mains power. Whilst both methods use pressurised water for cleaning purposes, the main differences relate water pressure.

Both types of machines are effective for various cleaning purposes, but the heat in a power washer will increase efficiency, making it easier to remove dirt and aged stains. The pressure used in a power washer generally ranges between 20-41 BAR whereas the pressure used in a pressure washer ranges from 100-170 BAR.

Jet washing simply means that powerful jets of water are being used to clean surfaces. Many people will interchangeably use jet washing, power washing or pressure washing, but jet washing is more of an umbrella term that covers both cleaning methods - power and pressure washing.

When it comes to choosing the best power washer, it depends on your specific needs and requirements. Popular options include Ryobi portable power washers, which are known for their reliability, power, and effectiveness in various outdoor cleaning tasks.
