pressure washer jets image
Gichin
I have a pressure washer from karcher model k3.97.i used it for a few years now and when ever i plug it in and turn the switch on,the washer pulsates and activates it for a few second and offs,although no water comes out,i can feel the bulging pulse from the trigger pull also which released the water jet.

Water hose pressure washer adapter at lowes?
Iron
Does lowes carry the adapter you can put on your garden hose to use it as a pressure washer? Also does this thing work good, anyone used it? Thanks.
Answer
Pressure washers INCREASE the pressure of the water entering the washer by means of a HIGH PRESSURE pump. Nothing that does not reach similar pressures will have the same effect.
(Pressure washers usually operate up to 1500 - 3000 PSI, up to 15 - 30 times Household water pressure.)
There are a few items that use compressed air to additionally pressurize the water, but they require a separate air compressor and a second hose and never reach really high pressure. (These can discharge at up to about 250 PSI, up to about 2 1/2 Times Household water pressure.)

These are usually only used in industrial applications where compressed air is already available.
I am assuming that this is the sort of item you were looking to find.

This type of item DOES NOT increase the pressure coming into the device,
it merely maintains more of that pressure and hence has a somewhat increased force to the stream of water coming out of the tip, by simply reducing the size of the orifice (hole) at the end of the nozzle. (Household water pressure is usually under 100PSI.)
There are quite a number of common nozzles that achieve much the same effect at a much LOWER COST.
The Adjust-a-Power nozzle is a common one widely used by forestry fire fighters, and car washes.

You may even find this type of nozzle at Lowes, Home Depot or your local hardware store.
An even cheaper unit to try that is sure to be available at Lowes, Home Depot or your local hardware store is a SWEEPER nozzle. Which has a smaller orifice than a regular Garden Hose Nozzle, but larger than the Adjust-a-Power nozzle.

Keep in mind that when the orifice is smaller LESS water comes out per minute (or per hour) if you are at the same pressure, so with these devices if the water is doing the real washing it may take significantly longer to achieve the effect you want as well.
