Q: What equipment are you using?
A: ECHO PW-4200 pressure washer and this is the turbo nozzle I used (https://amzn.to/34lTiN6). However, that will be overkill for most homeowners and this nozzle (https://amzn.to/35px24t) is a great one if you have a sub 4000psi machine. Here is the edging tool I use: https://amzn.to/3up8CmA I also use a Simpson 20" surface cleaner and a PETRA HD4000 sprayer

Q: What are the specs on your pressure washer?
A: The ECHO PW4200 is a 4 gallon per minute machine with adjustable PSI up to 4200. I think the hose is non marring rubber and 50 feet.

Q: What is a turbonozzle?
A: A turbo nozzle is a rotating 0 degree tip. 0 degree tips have tremendous cleaning power but cover a very narrow surface (think pencil tip). 15 degree yellow tips have less cleaning power but cover a wider, fan shaped area (think paint brush). A turbo nozzle has the cleaning power of a 0 degree tip but covers a circular area wider than a 15 degree yellow. Kind of a best of both worlds thing.

Q: What did you charge?
A: I am still learning how to charge for pressure washing. Most jobs I am getting closer every time, but still underbidding. I do this in addition to lawn care/landscaping, so I don't do it every day. All that to say don't ask me, because I will tell you bad info.

Q: What did you use to clean?
A: 10% strength chlorinating liquid applied with a backpack sprayer.

Q: Do you use the client's water or bring your own?
A: Guys who do this all day will have their own buffer water tanks. I am not that into it so I just use client's water supplies. Be aware setups over 4 GPM are really when you HAVE to start bringing your own water, there just isn't enough PSI to feed it from a standard water supply (in my local area at least).

Q: What an amateur. I can tell because of how you do X, Y, or Z.
A: Spot on! I never claimed to be an expert. This is just something I do on the side to make fun videos for viewers and offer another service to clients.

Q: You should have done A, B, or C instead.
A: Thank you for the feedback!

You know how in school you used to pad the word count of reports just to meet the minimum? YouTube descriptions are kind of the same, and I currently have around 2000 characters left. So to take advantage of those, enjoy as much of Wikipedia's history of pressure washing as will fit below:

Pressure washing or power washing is the use of high-pressure water spray to remove loose paint, mold, grime, dust, mud, chewing gum and dirt from surfaces and objects such as buildings, vehicles and concrete surfaces. The volume of a mechanical pressure washer is expressed in gallons or liters per minute, often designed into the pump and not variable. The pressure, expressed in pounds per square inch, pascals, or bar, is designed into the pump but can be varied by adjusting the unloader valve. Machines that produce pressures from 750 to 30,000 psi (5 to 200 MPa) or more are available.

A pressure washing surface cleaner is a tool consisting of two to four high-pressure jets on a rotating bar that swivels when water is flowing. This action creates a uniformed cleaning pattern that can clean flat surfaces at a rapid rate.

Hydro-jet cleaning is a more powerful form of power washing, employed to remove buildup and debris in tanks and lines.

Pressure washing is employed by businesses and homeowners to reduce allergies, minimize hazards, and improve aesthetics. A pressure washer is used to clean surfaces such as:

Gutters
Roofs
Decks
Sidewalks
Patios
Driveways
Siding
Parking lots
Cladding

Depending upon the surface to be cleaned, higher or lower pressure should be used, as well as the appropriate nozzle.

Pressure washer nozzles alter the direction of flow and velocity of the water. Nozzles allow users to reach a greater distance or apply more pressure to a difficult to clean surface, however, they can be dangerous. Nozzles are color coded for easy identification, with black nozzles covering the widest degree (65°) and red nozzles covering the least (0°). Great care should be taken when using a 0° nozzle as it can cause injury to the user and damage to surfaces.
