Frequently Asked Questions
Gas vs Electric: Which is the best home pressure washer?
Some advantages typical of gas-powered pressure washers (compared to electric ones) include:
- Higher pressure output (PSI)
- Can be operated without an electrical source
- Frames and components made of more durable materials
- Triplex pumps and pro/semi-pro options
- More service options for extended life
Some potential tradeoffs of gas power washers (compared to electric) include:
- More expensive / higher initial investment
- Generate fumes and more noise
- Require more effort to start and maintain
- Require greater care when cleaning delicate surfaces
- Heavier and take up more storage space
These pros and cons make general assumptions, each model will have its unique advantages and features. Both gas and electric pressure washers are capable of most home cleaning tasks, but where appropriate a gas power washer may reduce your overall cleaning time, especially for areas with deeper stains and embedded grime.
Also, if you prefer using gas-powered outdoor power equipment, you'll likely appreciate the performance of a gas power washer.
Note: If you plan to frequently clean vehicles, we recommend using an electric model for that task.
Residential vs Commercial Pressure Washers
Good news: you don't need to buy expensive, professional-grade tools to keep up the appearance of your home! You don't need 4400 psi to clean your house exterior or driveway.
Reasonably priced pressure washers designed for consumers are perfect for DIY homeowners.
Basic home pressure washers typically come with a consumer-grade engine and pump. These machines are not designed for heavy-duty daily use like commercial pressure washers, but strike the perfect balance between durability and price.
Prefer the convenience of electric tools or the horsepower of gas equipment? Both types of power washers are readily available.
Often the investment in a pressure washer pays off quickly. Not only does it eliminate the need to rent equipment or pay contractors – it also contributes to the value of your home by upping your curb appeal. And if you've ever used a lawn mower, you'll find a pressure washer easy to use.
