Top 10 Uses for Pressure Washers
Like many of you, I've used a lot of hand tools, power tools, and power equipment over the years. Table saws, routers, sanders, tile cutters, chainsaws, generators, nail guns, jack hammers, lawn mowers, pressure washers and more. Each tool has it's own special function and appeal. Of course, running the jack hammer to take out my front concrete sidewalk was the big he-man moment of all time for me. Wow! I'm sure the kids were incredibly impressed with their old man, and you can't even imagine what my wife thought. Ratta tat tat! But of all the above, nothing is as fun or satisfying to run as a pressure washer. - read entire article -

Three Advantages of Gasoline Pressure Washers
Though there are advantages to any pressure washer, there are a few specific advantages to using gasoline pressure washers. But first ... why use one at all? It is interesting to contemplate that there are many things that can be washed with water alone if it is put under enough pressure. Also, more water is not necessary, as a mater of fact, sometimes less water is used. For example, let's say your outdoor faucet pumps 8 gallons of water through your hose. If you place a simple spray nozzle on your hose, the nozzle releases the water under greater pressure by streaming it through smaller holes in the nozzle, and it only uses 5 gallons of water per minute. You not only get the advantages of the pressure, you also conserve water. So watering your garden with a nozzle is a great option. - read entire article -
Pressure Washers - One Company but Four Brands
There are a lot of great pressure washers on the market today. But it seems that in pressure washers, just like in a lot of businesses, you can find multiple brands that are all manufactured by the same parent company. Though they appear to be competitors, and are in many ways, at the top level the company is the same. I discovered this when I had kids in diapers.

What is the proper method for feeding a baby? Cold milk from a glass. What is the correct procedure for brushing one's teeth? First the front four, then the left, then the right, then the back, it's the only way. You see, there is no "best" in much of life. One method or way is likely as good as another in many circumstances. - read entire article -
