DEVICE AND FUNCTIONS OF THE WATER SYSTEM
A pressure washer is a cleaning machine that uses a jet of pressurized water. This tool is actually a small miracle. It saves you up to 80% of water, and with the remaining amount, you can effortlessly remove dirt in a few minutes that would otherwise take you hours to clean your facade, fence, or tiles.
The principle of the water jet is simple, although under the hood of this efficient device lies complex equipment. An electric motor drives a powerful pump that moves the water to the high-pressure hose, passes to the gun and reaches its tip, which is a nozzle with a small opening. Flowing through the small opening, the liquid already has significantly greater speed and energy. The jet of water hits the surface we are cleaning at high speed. We can choose the shape of the water jet by choosing the appropriate nozzle. The jet can be flat and narrow, which has higher and more concentrated energy. Or it can be wide, which covers a larger cleaning area, but has less force.
The higher pressure of the water jet provides greater cleaning power to the water jet and speeds up the cleaning process.
WHAT IS THE PUBLIC USE FOR?
If you have no experience with a water jet or washing a car with a water jet, you will probably be worried about the large amount of water that is released during washing. And you start to think that you will definitely flood the yard, terrace or basement. And the water meter will spin so crazy that when the bill comes out, you will feel dizzy. But it is not so! In reality, you should not be afraid, because the water jet does not have a flow rate like a fire hose, and its working principle is based on a directed, concentrated stream of water at high speed on the surface. The water jet effortlessly removes mud or clay from the tires of the car, tractor or from the tiles.
In fact, pressure washing equipment was originally developed for industry and construction, but today it is widely used in people's everyday lives. In addition to removing dirt from tiles, sidewalks, deck boards or various corners around the home, the water jet will also serve you well when cleaning gutters, moss from the roof or from the wooden fence, and also for cleaning dust and splashes from the facade.
Different nozzles are used for different types of cleaning. If you want to remove rust from the door panel or the body of a car, keep in mind that the water jet can sandblast. The sandblasting kit sucks fine sand into the water jet, mixes it and forces it together with the water onto the surface you are cleaning. This way you will effectively remove rust from surfaces intended for painting.
You can also use the water jet to clean garden tools and dishes contaminated with plaster, paint, mortar or dust.
WHICH PLUMBING SYSTEM SHOULD WE CHOOSE?
Buying a pressure washer is a worthwhile investment, if, of course, you make the right choice. If you have decided to become the proud owner of this valuable assistant, you should first of all pay attention to the water flow rate and working pressure. For quality washing, experts recommend machines with a minimum pressure of 130 bar and a flow rate of over 6.8 l/min.
A good water jetter has a two-pole or four-pole asynchronous motor. You cannot expect great durability and high power from collector motors, which weigh only about 4 kg. A powerful and durable water jetter weighs at least 12 kg.
DEVICE AND FUNCTIONS OF THE STEAM JET
A steam cleaner, also known as a steam cleaner, works on the principle of a pressure cooker. Water is heated in the closed boiler of the appliance until it boils – this is how steam is created. Depending on the model, this takes from one to six minutes per liter of water.
How does steam cleaning work?
The secret of steam cleaning lies in the combination of steam and temperature. This not only loosens dirt more easily, but you can also reach hard-to-reach areas without any problems and clean them more thoroughly with the steam cleaner. And without any chemicals! In some cases, you can support the dissolving power of the steam with mechanical action, for example with a brush or cloth. By the way, since the steam production demineralizes the water, there are no limescale residues or cleaning streaks left behind by the steam cleaner.
The steam cleaner cleans very quickly.
This appliance is a sprinter in cleaning and requires an express pace. Stubborn and greasy dirt is liquefied and dissolved in seconds. In most cases, you can do without time-consuming scrubbing. You also save time when ironing, because firstly, thanks to the steam, you do not need to moisten the laundry additionally, and secondly, the clothes are ironed much faster.
WHY CHOOSE STEAM CLEANING?
Steam cleaning is the most natural type of cleaning – and therefore the ideal alternative to traditional cleaning. The application possibilities are diverse and, in addition to cleaning, steam can do an excellent job of ironing and caring for textiles. This way, steam saves you valuable time.
From what has been said so far, it is clear that steam cleaners are capable of solving both simple and complex household "equations". This makes them a valuable asset.
Cleaning with a steam cleaner is environmentally friendly.
This is because it is a cleaning without chemistry and chemicals. Even just the combination of the power and temperature of steam dissolves stubborn dirt and therefore makes cleaning agents unnecessary. This keeps the water that is the basis of our lives clean, but also saves on your household budget.
Using a steam cleaner is environmentally friendly in another way. This machine eliminates the disposal of packaging material from cleaning products – this saves energy and raw material costs.
Furthermore, water as a raw material for steam is extremely economical: one liter of normal tap water produces around 1,700 liters of steam! This is enough for about 20 minutes of steam cleaning – enough to thoroughly clean a small apartment. And since electricity is only needed for heating, its consumption is also within normal limits.
The steam cleaner eliminates allergies.
Anyone who cleans with a steam cleaner protects themselves and their family, because unlike cleaning solutions, the steam condensate does not leave behind any residues that can cause allergies. This is especially important for small children who like to put things in their mouths. With steam, there are also no accidents due to incorrect application of the cleaning agent, skin irritations or other health problems caused by cleaning substances.
People with allergies can also rest assured because the steam traps and absorbs dust, thus preventing various allergens (house dust mites and their feces), and the climate in the room is noticeably improved. Last but not least, the physical strain of steam cleaning is significantly less – you simply let the steam do the work for you.
And here we will answer the question "Why should we prefer steam cleaning?". Here are 7 arguments:
1. Steam cleans environmentally friendly – without detergents and with minimal water consumption.
2. Steam cleans hygienically and medically accurately – even in hard-to-reach places.
3. Steam cleans effortlessly – without scrubbing or polishing.
4. Steam cleans healthily – without cleaning chemicals.
5. Steam is versatile – for cleaning the kitchen, bathroom or windows, as well as for ironing and maintaining clothes, flooring and furniture.
6. Steam saves time – cleaning is faster.
7. Steam saves money
