Pressure Washing questions, answered by experts

One of the best ways to save money on deck cleaning services might seem counter-intuitive: pay for cleaning annually rather than waiting until it’s necessary. Routine deck maintenance can help you avoid stains and mold growth, both of which can detract from the appearance of your deck and limit its lifespan. Annual cleaning and resealing will keep your deck looking new for longer, adding utility to your yard and improving the overall appeal of your home and its value. You can also save money by coupling deck power washing with other outdoor cleaning services, like fences, patios, and walkways.

Whether you need to winterize your pressure washer depends on where you store it. If you can keep it in a relatively warm place with no risk of freezing, you won't need to add antifreeze. However, if the machine will be stored in freezing temperatures, any liquid left in the water pump can freeze, expand, and cause severe damage. To prevent this, add antifreeze to keep it in good condition. While some suggest emptying the machine with compressed air, this can be a tedious process that may not fully drain the liquid. Regardless of storage conditions, it is also good practice to empty the gas chamber and refresh the oil before winter storage.

Yes, you can safely pressure wash vinyl siding. As a durable material, vinyl can typically withstand pressure up to 3,000 PSI, holding up better than other siding types like aluminum or stucco. However, it's crucial to operate the pressure washer correctly to avoid damage. Before you begin, repair any existing cracks or damage to the siding. For a safe setup, use a 15- or 25-degree nozzle and maintain a distance of at least three feet from the siding to prevent splashback and damage.

You can get more pressure out of your pressure washer by adjusting the pressure control knob clockwise to increase pressure (+). You can also check your nozzle for debris and clogs and remove anything you find with needle nose pliers. Switch to a nozzle with a lower-degree spray angle or a turbo nozzle to achieve more pressure at the tip. Check for leaks in the hose and connections, and make sure your water supply is offering enough pressure. 

The white nozzle is your best choice for power washing indoors. The white nozzle, or the 40-degree nozzle, comes with a pressure even lower than the standard green nozzle but still has enough force to clean the surface. It works great for painted and wooden surfaces. It also doesn’t damage more delicate materials like ceramic or tiles. However, avoid pressure washing delicate furniture, caulking, and other surfaces that require more tendered touches than regular surfaces.
