Pressure washing riggs ?

Question

I have done some extensive advertising for pressure washing this coming yr. Correct me if I'm wrong but it seems like hot water is the way to go for just about everything. I use lowes 3700 honda power washers now, but want to know if I should consider a pressure washing rig. I would like to expand from two to three times a week to daily. I beleive I can get the work because of my reputation in the window cleaning industry. If so, what riggs would you guys prefer?

Jeff hot is great for many things oily, dirty concrete etc. You need more GPM Gallons Per Minute

Get a 5.5 or bigger and you wont believe how much quicker you will work.

GPM GPM GPM GPM is the way

Good luck with your PWing

jeff,

to answer your question i'm a big fan of hot water. i have found that i can use a lesser % of shc when i use hot water to wash with. my standard housewash mix when i use hot water only contains .5% shc and i have had no problem knocking off the mildew.

good luck,

rando

Now that I have a decent 5.5g machine for residential I've been asked time and again to do severe gum infested concrete and all I could do was advise clients that I could do little with the gum until I get a burner.

Can't do much with major grease, efficiently, without hot water, either.

I can do gum all day long with my 5.6gpm/2500psi cold machine and some F-18 from Bob. I don't leave any shadows either. You never know till you try... Grease? Now that's another story...
