[**Professional high pressure cleaners**](https://lavor.com/en/search/high-pressure-cleaners-pro/) are very useful equipment for **cleaning large areas, larger or smaller machinery or vehicles**, effectively and quickly removing **widespread dirt, encrusted residues, mold, graffiti, **

**oily and greasy substances**, and all those substances that would usually require the use of large amounts of detergent and water.

In order to identify the right model for one's work needs and according to the **relevant industry**, it is important to evaluate certain **features of the product we are going to choose**, such as whether it has a [**hot water boiler**](https://blog.lavor.com/en/hot-water-or-cold-water-high-pressure-cleaner-how-to-choose-the-right-one-for-you?hsLang=en), **flow rate** and **pressure**. The latter is particularly important in order to make the most of the **high pressure cleaner's washing power**, allowing you to achieve maximum results quickly and without damaging the area on which you are going to operate.

## Professional high pressure cleaner and bars: how to choose the right one?

To remove the **toughest dirt effortlessly, without waste and while optimizing time**, the perfect solution for businesses is to rely on **a professional high pressure cleaner**. By harnessing the power and pressure of the jet, these products achieve excellent levels of cleanliness, even after just one go, avoiding the need to use large amounts of low-pressure water, detergent or abrasive substances.

As we have seen, what makes the difference is **pressure**: **but how many bars should a professional high pressure cleaner have?** While excellent results can be achieved for domestic solutions with models starting at 100 bar, **in the case of professional high pressure cleaners it is essential to rely on products starting at 120 bar** **operating** **pressure**.

In fact, **high pressure cleaners** make it possible to:

- **Remove tough dirt from plaster, concrete flooring and paint**;
- Thoroughly clean **agricultural machinery, such as tractors, forklifts, dump trucks and telescopic lifters, removing mud, coarse debris and slush** from chassis, bumpers and wheels;
- [remove graffiti](https://blog.lavor.com/en/removing-graffiti-using-a-high-pressure-cleaner?hsLang=en) from walls, plastics, metal surfaces without damaging the underlying material;
- **Clean up industrial machinery**, removing organic, oily, greasy or chemical substances in a short time.

Taking advantage of the impact force of the jet pressure, the pressure washer becomes a **valuable ally for some professional activities**, such as in **construction, carpentry or professional cleaning**, or supporting the **maintenance of spaces**, tools and machinery, within the **industrial sector, farms, workshops** and more.

## How many bars are needed for sandblasting?

One of the strengths of professional high-pressure cleaners is their **versatility**. Thanks to the internal structure and the use of the right accessories, it is possible to perform different tasks using the same product all the time.

This is the case with **sandblasting**, a special technique that, by **taking advantage of the presence of sand particles within the jet, makes it possible to remove smog, dirt and paint from plastic, metal and wooden surfaces without damaging the material**. In addition, it is a sustainable and environmentally friendly technique that avoids the use of detergents and chemicals, only exploiting the precision and pressure of the jet together with the abrasive force of the sand grains.

![bars should a professional high pressure cleaner ](https://blog.lavor.com/hs-fs/hubfs/idro%20per%20sabbiare.jpg?width=800&height=563&name=idro%20per%20sabbiare.jpg)

To achieve the desired result, it is important to choose a professional tool, opting for **a high pressure cleaner with a pressure of between 150 and 250 bar, so as to obtain a jet power capable of removing scale, paint or corrosion**.

## How many bars does it take to clean facades?

The **professional high pressure cleaner** is also an excellent resource for businesses working within the building, construction and [**renovation**](https://blog.lavor.com/pulire-gli-edifici-storici-ecclesiastici-e-le-aree-verdi-con-lidropulitrice?hsLang=en) [industries](https://blog.lavor.com/en/high-pressure-cleaners-in-building-sites?hsLang=en).

Again, to achieve an **excellent result** working on the area to be cleaned while preserving the rest of the surface, it is **essential to opt for a professional high pressure cleaner**, choosing the right model according to the material on which you are going to work:

- For **cleaning a brick or stone facade**, you can select a model with a **pressure of between 120 and 150 bar**;
- For **areas encrusted with paint, mold or graffiti**, it is essential to rely on higher-performance solutions with a **pressure of between 150 and 200 bar**.
