Electric Pressure Washers for Vehicle Maintenance

Electric Pressure Washers for Vehicle Maintenance
Maintenance crews appreciate the easy use, power, and cleaning capacity of Daimer®’s electric pressure washers. Electric pressure washers have other benefits as well. They do not pollute, do not create dangerous fume buildup in indoor areas, and do not require fuel storage. These machines create less noise than gas powered machines, and are therefore preferred for vehicle cleaning and maintenance for garages, showrooms, car rental companies, and private and public vehicle fleets.

Electric pressure washer require little maintenance. The engine remains free of fuel residues because electricity is a clean source of power. As fleet maintenance is usually conducted indoors or in a semi-covered area, access to an electrical supply is often not an issue.

The two other important factors of pressure washers for fleet maintenance are pressure level and mobility. Car and truck exteriors are not robust enough to withstand pressure levels higher than 1500 psi. Therefore, fleet owners and maintenance contractors should invest in electric pressure washers with pressure levels peaking at 1500 psi. High steam temperatures are useful for removing grease, wax, chemicals, and similar matter. Hot water can clear away moderate grease buildup, and melt ice and snow on the engines and glass. Steam can melt heavy grease layers and reduce the use of water.

Daimer Industries® offers a number of steam and tri-mode pressure cleaners ideal for vehicle cleaning and maintenance with pressure levels at our below 1500 psi. One such machine is the the Super Max™ 6120 SCW from Daimer. This machine has a low flow rate of 0.5 GPM and pressure levels of 1000 psi. Low water usage minimizes environmental risks, waste water disposal problems, and the chance of being fined for excessive runoff.

Besides pressure washing equipment, Daimer® retails green vehicle cleaning and degreasing solutions. These environment friendly chemicals can clean car exteriors and engines. Visit www.daimer.com for more information on electric pressure washers and green cleaning products.

The Best Uses for Stationary Electric Pressure Washers

Best Uses for Stationary Electric Pressure Washers
Electric pressure washers are mostly used for indoor cleaning jobs for many reasons. First, these machines require an electric power source, which can be easily found in indoor settings but difficult to find outdoors. Second, unlike gas pressure washing machines, electric machines do not give off any exhaust. Electric machines also tend to be quieter than gas powered pressure washers.

Electric pressure washers are available in both portable and stationary forms. Portable machines can be easily moved from place to place for cleaning jobs that cover large areas. However, stationary pressure washers offer a number of benefits as well. The following are some examples.

Use Long Hoses
One way to maximize mobility for stationary electric pressure washers is to choose machines with long hoses. Long hoses allow the operators to keep the machine at a suitable place and while still being able to clean large areas.

Daimer®, a market leader in cleaning equipment, offers machines with the longest hoses. The company makes use of the special Long Hose Technology to maximize the length of the hose, without affecting the output pressure. Many electric pressure washers in the Super Max™ series support up to 300-foot-long hoses.

Technology
AST® technology is a useful technology, particularly for machines having long hoses. It allows the operators to switch the machine off and on through the scatter gun. In other words, they do not have to go back to the stationary machine every time they want to take a break or shut the machine on or off.
