Tiny components make a big difference when it comes to power washing. A smaller nozzle opening restricts water flow, increasing the velocity of the water stream. The larger the angle, the less pressure there’ll be. Most power washer nozzles are color-coded based on the pressure they provide. Choose the right nozzle type for your needs:
Zero-degree: MAX Power
- Direct water jet
- Small coverage area
- Sidewalk/driveway crevices
- High areas that are hard to reach
5-degree: Stripping
- Concrete, brick, hard porous surfaces
- Remove paint
- Difficult stains & oil
- 25-degree: Moderate Cleaning
- Painted surfaces, wood, siding, fences, patios & equipment
- Clean boats & cars
40-degree: Delicate Spray
- Screens, blinds & windows
65-degree: Soaping
- Soap nozzle for use with detergents
Rotary nozzles are highly valued because they combine the force of a direct jet with the spray area of a wider nozzle. They work by rotating the water jet at very high speeds- so fast that the water appears to spray in a cone shape.
All-in-one adjustable nozzles are also available for medium and light-duty machines.
