Homeowners — What To Know Mout Power vases (NAPSA)—Whether you are getting your homeinto shape after a season of rough weather, preparing to put your house on the market or just want to see it sparkle, the answer can be a power washer. WhatIt Does A power washer is an outdoor power tool that makes cleaning easier by using the force of a high-pressure spray to loosen dirt and flush it away. A typical garden hose dispenses water at about 35-40 pounds per square inch (PSD, while a coin-operated car wash provides about 700 PSI. A power washer, by contrast, typically dispenses water at several thousand PSI, depending upon the model. You can also use detergents with a power washer for even more effective cleaning. Often, there are accessories you can buy that make cleaning even easier. You can use it to simply take the dirt and grime off the drivewayor patio furniture, scrub mold and mildew off concrete or prep the house for painting, depending on how high the pressure the unit provides. MakingIt Better To make high-pressure cleaning jobs faster and easier, Generac Power Systems, a leader in portable engine-driven products, conducted extensive research with users to learn what they wanted from a power washer. For example, every power washer Generac produces has an easily accessible pump well above the ground, so you don’t have to kneel down to make hose connections. Plus, they all boast an overhead valve (OHV) horizontal-shaft engine so you get plenty of power. A quality pressure washer can help you make short work of cleaning up around the outside of your home. Each engine also comes standard with low-oil shutdown—a feature that is not often available—to protect and prolong enginelife. Both the pump and engine are perfectly balanced above the axle for almost effortless maneuverability, regardless of terrain. Additionally, Generac completely customized the spray gun with ergonomics in mind. Longer than many other spray guns, it features a unique cushion grip that reduces fatigue by minimizing vibration. The innovative easy-to-pull trigger can be pulled and held with only a minimum of effort, while a Quick-Click™ nozzle tip can tackle virtually every cleaning task. These units from Generac feature tool-free assembly, so you can use the power washerright out of the box. Learn More For more information, visit www.Generac.com or call (888)GENERAC.
