Pressure washers can be used to clean driveways, sidewalks patios, decks, siding and fencing. But if you’re not careful, a pressure washer can damage softer surfaces like wood. Here are some tips on how to use a pressure washer to clean your home:
Use a wide tip on softer surfaces to reduce the chance of damage.
Find the distance from the tip to the surface that cleans best without causing damage.
When cleaning wood, move the tip with the grain of the wood to avoid damage.
Use a cleaner made for pressure washers, and the tip made for applying cleaners.
Do not use chlorine bleach in a pressure washer; use an oxygen bleach instead.
Use a surface cleaner attachment on your pressure washer when cleaning large horizontal areas.
