Pressure Cleaners – Hot Water Pressure Cleaners vs Cold Water Pressure Cleaners
Hot water pressure cleaners are also often referred to as hot & cold pressure cleaners or steam cleaners and sometimes even diesel fired pressure cleaners
Cold water pressure cleaners are machines that deliver cold water at a particular waterflow rate, depending on the pump size, under pressure to clean a surface of any type. Normally, the larger the flowrate of a pump, the better, bigger and more productive the pressure cleaners are, but when you talk about hot water pressure cleaners, different rules are applied.
The cleaning results gained by using a hot water pressure cleaner are by far much better than using a cold water pressure cleaner and will also save a lot of time. You cannot compare machines of similar technical specification because there is such a large difference in performance between hot water and cold water cleaning.
Hot water pressure cleaners have come along way since the days of having to heat the water yourself first, then using that heated water to supply the pressure cleaner which would do the cleaning.
A hot water pressure cleaner works these days by having water pumped and pressurized through the pressure pump, the heated via a diesel petrol heater before being discharged out of the machine through the nozzle.
The heat of the hot water does most of the cleaning as compared to a cold water machine which relies solely on pressure to clean. In regards to hot water machines, the heat along with the pressure provide the strength behind the application of cleaning.
A fairly common question posed by customers looking to purchase a pressure cleaner for a specific job is, “Does hot water make that much of a difference over cold?” One cannot truly appreciate the differences in cleaning results and the speed at which it can be done unless you have used a hot water machine.
While this applies to the majority a cleaning applications, it cannot be said that it occurs for all. But, in most cases, hot water machine does present a much greater cleaning result as compared to a cold water machine regardless of the task or the water flowrate or operating pressure.
Do you generally clean your dishes in cold water, or do you set your dishwater to use cold water? Well the same could be said in principle when applied to pressure cleaning in general.
So for large industrial applications that require removing heavy dirt, grease or other materials, hot water pressure cleaners are the clear choice to use.
