Pressure Washing Is Green Technology That Packs A Lot Of Power

By Ericka Marsh


In Plymoth, MN, the need for clean sidewalks, driveways and parking lots is very great. This is because of the environmentally conscious residents and business owners. The debris that can be picked up and scattered by passing cars can make the facades of buildings very grimy. The only way to remove this contamination is through a process known as pressure washing.

Much of the material that can make your structure dirty gets kicked up by cars passing by. The rain can often contain pollution elements, even now.. The windows will cloud up, the entrance can be made unwelcoming and your swimming pool, at home, is also gummed up because of this active neglect. Outside break areas, where smoking is likely to occur, will get very dirty and smelly.

The reason this power cleaning works so well is that it is a green cleaning method since it needs no chemicals. This is important as the runoff from this process can be flushed down any sanitary or street drain. These drains usually go to the local rivers and streams, so they must stay as clean as possible.

Pressures are generated by special machines. The range of between 250 PSI and about 6500 PSI is the normal commercial range and means pounds per square inch of force at the nozzle. The lower range is for detail cleaning and the upper range is for large, open areas that need a lot of cleaning of very sticky material, such as parking lots and oily driveways. Smaller pressures are great for roof cleaning and other delicate work.

There are many of these professional firms in the Plymoth, MN area. Most of the larger custodial companies have a department to do this. There are also other firms that specialize in this type of cleaning. Any firm you are looking into should have their references checked to ensure their professionalism and adherence to sound client relations.

One of the very best about these processes are that they can be brought inside as well as being used outside. The thorough top to bottom cleaning that is needed in food processing plants is extremely easy when using these professionals with their equipment. The absence of chemicals means that no cross contamination can be introduced into the system. The ceilings, walls, all processing lines and even the drains can be cleaned this way. The floors can be processed quite easily as the material will be flushed away quickly when hit with this much pressurized water.

Since the pressure of the water is what does the work, this process can be used on sidewalks, parking lots, sides of buildings and houses. It can be used to prepare swimming pools for the new season and also to spruce up the gazebo. Those retaining walls, benches and even statuary can be delicately sprayed off and this saves a lot of work with a bucket and brush.

If it is outside, it will benefit from this type of cleaning. If it is inside and cleanable, this process will make quick work of it as well. The personnel who are trained for this and do it every day can clean just about anything and everything and, by them doing it, you stay safe and dry. That is probably one of the best benefits of these experts doing this.
