Work Savers: Pressure Washer

A pressure washer is a machine that can be used to wash many different types of surfaces. Using water supplied by a garden hose, a pressure washer is an effective tool that can be used to clean and remove oils, grease, mold, dirt, and stains from walls, decks, driveways, and many other house related objects.
It is all about pressure though, whether what you get is a cleaning or a peeling. Water pressure is measured in pounds per square inch (psi). When purchasing an electric machine one that has a range of 1300 to 2400 psi will be a good choice for most jobs around the house.
Remember to read the directions on the safe use of this device and use safety equipment to prevent injury. Then just have fun!
