A good high-pressure cleaner: the factors making the difference
A high pressure cleaner is a win-win solution for many types of tasks, such as cleaning your car, pool, garden, bicycle, patio, walls, removing moss and mold, and much more.
But among the many models available, how do you choose the one best suited to your needs? We often think that the most important factor to take into consideration when evaluating a household high pressure cleaner is pressure, but this is not really the case.
In fact, to be able to choose the most suitable equipment for one’s needs, it is essential to start with the purpose of use: what will I clean most with my high-pressure cleaner and how often? Beginning with this consideration, it will then be possible to evaluate the pressure as well as the power and type of motor, whether to select a hot-water or cold-water model, the flow rate of the jet and, last but not least, the cost of the product.
To help you choose the perfect high pressure cleaner for your needs, Lavor has divided its models into 6 Washing Levels:
- Washing Level 1, [100 bar / Power: 1300 W / Power consumption: 330 l/h], ideal for occasional use on small surfaces and surface dirt;
- Washing Level 2 [110-120 bar / Power: 1500-1700W / Power consumption: 330-360 l/h], for occasional deep cleaning operations;
- Washing Level 3 [125-130 bar / Power: 1800W / Power consumption: 390-400 l/h], for light cleaning of the toughest dirt;
- Washing Level 4 [135-145 bar / Power: 1900-2100W / Power consumption: 400-450 l/h], ideal for frequent removal of tough dirt;
- Washing Level 5 [150-160 bar / Power: 2100-2500W / Power consumption: 450-520 l/h], for frequent washing of products such as dirt bikes and tractors;
- Washing Level 6 [160-180 bar / Power: 2500-2800W / Power consumption: 520-570 l/h], the winning solution for deep cleaning of very tough dirt.
By following the guidelines in this veritable “purchasing guide” you will be able to compare all the parameters available to you, such as pressure and power, orienting yourself among the many Lavor high pressure cleaners available and ensuring that you find the model best suited to your usage needs.
Which high-pressure cleaner to choose to wash your car?
If you are looking for a high-performing product to clean your car, a high pressure cleaner is the best solution for you. Harnessing the power of the jet and using specific accessories such as the curved lances, fixed and rotating brushes, this product works by removing the most encrusted dirt on rims, bumpers and windshields, quickly and effortlessly.
In order to achieve the desired result, however, it is important to assess several aspects, such as the frequency of use, any other uses of the product and the type of dirt to be removed.
As per the Lavor Washing Level, the most suitable high-pressure cleaner for washing a car is WL 2, with a pressure between 110 and 120 bar, suitable for occasional use. By using this piece of equipment you will be able to achieve an effective but delicate cleaning operation, protecting the paint and achieving excellent results.
If, however, you need to operate on a car frequently soiled with mud and weeds, such as those used on country roads, farms and mountainous areas, a good option is the WL 3 model, with a pressure of 125-130 bar, which is also ideal on medium-sized surfaces, such as terrasses or yards.
By assessing your cleaning needs, you will then be able to choose the model best suited to you, optimizing your investment in economic terms and getting all the pressure, power and functionality you need to thoroughly wash your car, even in just one go.
Which high pressure cleaner to choose to clean the outside of the house?
Cleaning the garden is a real challenge that requires a lot of patience and effort. In order to achieve excellent results effortlessly, without stress and in a short time, an excellent solution is to rely on a household high pressure cleaner.
In fact, with this tool you can go about quickly removing foliage, crushed stone, slush, mold, moss and settled dirt from all kinds of surfaces, such as concrete, plastic, wood, stone, pots, fences, paved surfaces, perimeter walls and more.
Again, to achieve maximum results while avoiding waste and protecting the different surfaces you are going to clean, it is essential to carefully evaluate all the characteristics of the various models available, as per the Lavor Washing Level.
The starting point for choosing the most suitable high-pressure cleaner for your garden is its size: for a space of 20/30m2 a high-pressure cleaner with a pressure between 110 and 120 bar will be sufficient. In the case of larger spaces, above 80m2, it may be more useful to choose a WL 5 model, with a pressure, therefore, above 150 bar. In both cases, however, it is essential to thoroughly evaluate the use of the high-pressure cleaner, to be sure to choose the model most in line with your needs, and thus also evaluating the capacity, power, compactness and versatility of your equipment.
What about cleaning the pool?
The high pressure cleaner is also an excellent solution for cleaning the pool (when empty) partly because of the use of the many compatible accessories:
- With the patio cleaner you can quickly clean the bottom and walls, removing even the most encrusted dirt in just a few steps;
- By harnessing the power of the jet, it is possible to remove moss and mold from the ladders and filter nozzles;
- With the pin nozzle, the dirt deposited between the tile joints, even the narrowest ones, can be removed effortlessly;
- Thanks to the 5-meter hoses and extensions, you can easily reach every spot, avoiding leaving out some areas of the pool.
In order to achieve an excellent result, it is essential, again, to choose a model of high-pressure cleaner that meets one’s concrete needs for use, taking into account the frequency, the size of the pool, other possible uses of the equipment and the type of dirt to remove.
With the right product for your needs, you can revolutionize the way you clean, keeping your rooms clean and sanitized, in just one go!
