Is it safe to pressure wash a deck?

• <div><p>Most deck lumber is softwood that you can easily damage with the spray from a power washer. Most power washers, though, have a lower pressure setting that’s relatively safe for deck materials if you’re careful to hold the nozzle at least a foot from the surface and continue moving without hovering in one area. </p></div>

Where should you not use a pressure washer?

• <div><p>You should not use a pressure washer on any surface that it might damage. Examples include shingled roofs, glass, electrical components, and anything with a seal that might be stripped away by the pressure. There are a variety of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/9-uses-pressure-washer.htm">different uses for a pressure washer</a>. They're ideal for driveways, patios, garage floors, vehicles, fencing, gutters, and paint stripping.</p></div>

Q: What time of the year should you pressure wash a patio?

• <div><p>No matter the material, the best times to pressure wash or power wash a patio are spring and summer during a string of dry days. As long as the temperature is above 40 degrees Fahrenheit, you won&rsquo;t encounter any cold-related issues. You need those dry days to ensure no algae or mold grows on the wet surface of the patio. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to pressure wash a deck?

• <div><p>It generally takes 60 minutes to pressure wash a 19-foot by 19-foot deck. If you are using a pressure washer for the first time, be sure to take extra time to read all directions, select the right nozzles, and test a small portion of your deck before diving into the task.</p></div>

Q: Why do you have to use hot water to deep clean?

• <div><p>When you deep clean your washing machine, using hot water is the best practice since it&rsquo;s more effective than cold water at killing various types of bacteria and viruses. Plus, hot water tends to break down soap residue more efficiently.</p></div>

Everything was as you would expect from a Lowes. They loaded the washing machine up. They offered delivery and installation, but we needed it that day so we took a trailer up there and got it ourselves because it would have been another day to get it.
