How much PSI is good for a pressure washer?

• <div><p>A pressure washer with 3,000 PSI is enough for most residential projects, such as cleaning patios, outdoor furniture, exterior siding, and fences. Add an extendable wand to make pressure washing easier and more ergonomic. Choose a nozzle that’s best for your surface, such as a 15-degree nozzle for cleaning siding and a surface cleaner <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/guide-to-pressure-washer-attachments-driveways.htm">attachment for driveways</a>. </p></div>

Should you wear a mask when jet washing?

• <div><p>Always wear protective gear, including a mask, gloves, and eye goggles, whenever you’re dealing with high-pressure cleaning or cleaning with chemicals. But even if you’re just using plain water with your jet washer, don some gear to avoid splashing—especially from the hot water of a power washer—or any particles of dirt or debris that might fly off the surface as you clean it.</p></div>

Q: What is most important when buying a pressure washer?

• <div><p>One of the most important factors to consider when buying a pressure washer is not just psi but also the machine&rsquo;s overall cleaning power. This is based on both the psi and the GPM. Look for a cleaning rating, or effective cleaning unit (ECU), of up to 8,000 for most residential cleaning projects that require a pressure washer.</p></div>

Q: Can you pressure wash rust off concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, pressure washers can remove rust stains from concrete. However, when coupled with an acid treatment, they can be even more effective. Just be sure to use a minimum of a 15-degree nozzle to prevent damage to the surface, and users must also be careful not to get in the way of the pressure washer&rsquo;s jet as they can cut through skin and cause injury. </p></div>

Q: Should you pressure wash tennis courts?

• <div><p>Some hard surfaces, such as concrete and asphalt, tolerate pressure washing well, and it can be a great way to keep them clean. However, you should avoid pressure washing clay or grass as you'll quickly destroy them.</p><p>Additionally, pressure washing can remove paint lines from any surface, so you need to be careful, and it may be best to let professionals handle the job.</p></div>
