We know that it is important that you have not only the best equipment, but the equipment that is right for the job. At Alkota we pride ourselves on working through our network of distributors to help you find the perfect hot or cold pressure washer for your situation. Whether it would be for home use, industrial or commercial, we have you covered. We do that by asking the right questions. Below we have put together a list of things to consider, and questions to ask yourself before committing to your next pressure washer.

WHAT ARE YOU CLEANING?

Alkota makes a variety of pressure washers for a variety of jobs, everything from agriculture to manufacturing and food processing. The gallons per minute (GPM) of water and pounds per square inch (PSI) of pressure that we recommend changes depending on what you are cleaning. So the first questions we ask are: 

1. What surface are you cleaning, is it wood, metal, plastic, or something else?
2. What substance are you trying to remove?
3. Is that substance oily and greasy or grimy and caked on?
4. Do you need hot water to get it to budge or will cold water do the job?

When we understand the scope of your cleaning job, our distributors can help guide you to the perfect industrial pressure washer to do the job. Knowing what you are cleaning is the first step in helping us choose the right pressure washer for you.

HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU WANT TO SPEND CLEANING?

While we special build other options, most of our industrial pressure washers range from 2 gallons a minute up to 20 gallons a minute with PSIs ranging from 500 to 5000; so when we know how fast you want to clean, we can find the right machine to match your needs. Here is a quick chart with some basic information on the PSI needed to get the job done.
