Looking to purchase a gas pressure washer. Don't want to spend more than I have to. Traditional residential cleaning, siding kid toys, patio furniture, etc. I was looking at a 2600 but recently heard I need a 3000??? Any thoughts? Any specific models you like?? Thanks!!
it will be used frequently and those crummy 1500's don't do anything for siding. i know i need gas i'm just not sure if the 2600 is enough or if i should go for the 3000
Answer
A 2600psi or a 3000psi gas pressure washer can do some pretty serious damages but it doesn't mean you couldn't use those units for your applications. Many gas powered pressure washers will allow you to adjust the power level. You could use those pressure washers to wash your car and windows or strip paint off your old wooden fence. High power pressure washers will be A LOT more versatile than those underpowered 1500psi or 1800psi ones.
Honda is famous for their small gasoline engines. Like their cars and lawnmowers, their gas pressure washers also live up to this reputation. They are easy to start. They are easy on gas. And they will last for who knows how long with just regular maintenance. A 2600psi pressure washer is capable of making dents (with the "right" nozzle) on your stucco (or even your drive way) already and it will be good enough for residential cleaning. But since power levels could be adjusted, it won't hurt if you get yourself a bigger unit (if you think extra power is worth the cost). Our local Costco stores sells Honda pressure washers for under $500. Maybe you should check yours too. :)
PS: Be careful with those pressure washers. Always check the power setting before each use. I used the washer to wash my lawn chairs once. I didn't know the washer was set on full power and the jet stream cut the fabric on one of the chairs right open. There's another time when I used pressure washer to wash my motorcycle. Once again, I forgot to check the power setting and the first blast cut the saddle (seat) right open. After that incident, I ALWAY check the settings. LOL
PPS: Don't be tempted to test how powerful the jet stream is with your hand. Many high pressure washers are very capable of giving you very nasty cuts.

Where to dump water from pressure washer?
Imtheprez
Im thinking of buying a commercial pressure washer...after I do a job where would be a acceptable place to dump the dirty water, without getting a fine?
Answer
A pressure washer does not collect the dirty water. The dirty water is going to be on the ground. You need waterproof sheets on the ground to collect it. Contact your local EPA office for instructions on what to do with it.
