Full Pressure Isn't Always Needed in Power Washing

Both pressure washing and soft washing are done with a commercial pressure washing machine, which should be used on all jobs.

A soft wash incorporates special low-pressure nozzles on the end of a pressure washing gun or wand. That’s combined with a biodegradable chemical that removes the biological elements (mold, algae, pollen, dirt, moss) and other stains without damaging surfaces on your home or killing your plants.

Not only does the soft washing method clean surfaces, such as your deck, patio, siding or fence, safely and thoroughly, it also maintains paint and masonry longer.

The Difference Between Pressure and Soft

The only time full pressure (4000 psi) should be used is to pressure wash concrete with a surface cleaner that defuses pressure through two nozzles.

The commercial pressure washer machine will properly distribute and dilute chemicals during pre-rinse, and apply the proper volume/pressure ratio for the appropriate surfaces. This is where the two terms — pressure washing vs. soft washing — are usually confused.
