Answer This Question

A:  Downstream. Do NOT use bleach in the detergent tank as it is too harsh on the plastic components of the power washer.

    Q:Will this pull water from a tank or does it need some water pressure entering the machine?

    Answer This Question

    A:  You need to supply at least 4 gallons of water per minute to the power washer. Therefore the water source must be pressurized. Anything less than 4 GPM will result in low pressure performance and premature pump failure.

      A:  I do not know if the washer can pull from a tank, as I hook it up to a garden hose. I am pleased with the washer, however, and would recommend it.

        A:  The 383S hose reel is a "storage" hose reel. The reel is best used for long-term storage. During the cleaning season, simply wrap the HP hose around the handle for convenience.

            Q:Does this have a variable PSI? If so, how is it adjusted?

            A:  NO

            by|May 4, 2023

              A:  No it does not. The psi is controlled by how far away or close the HP spray is to the surface being cleaned. Call Blue Clean Customer Service at 866-235-5112 8-5pm M-F if you have any questions.

                Q:How effective is this unit at removing paint from brick?
                by|Mar 15, 2016
                1 Answer
                Answer This Question

                A:  I can't be certain this will remove the paint off of a brick. If its loose paint it should remove it but if its not loose you will probably need more PSI for that specific job.

                  Q:Is this model right for cleaning a house
                  by|Mar 14, 2016

                  Answer This Question

                  A:  Exterior cleaning only except if drain is available. This pressure washer will do a great job cleaning siding. However, as with all pressure washing, there a several things to keep in mind: 1) Pressure washers work best when the HP spray is 1 to 2 feet from the surface being cleaned, 2) longer distance can be accomplished with the adjustable spray lance when the nozzle shoots a "pencil-point" spray, 3) lance extensions can be added to reach higher points of the house siding without having to stand on a ladder. For more information on cleaning siding and extension lance options, contact AR Blue Clean by email: info@arblueclean.com or call 866-235-5112 8-5pm CST M-F.
