Would a 2000 psi power washer be good?

[imported_kgb]

I am not too knowledgable about power washers and I was looking at this one

I was wondering if that would be good for washing cars,wheel wells, under cariage and all that jazz?

Thanks!

It’s not all about pressure, a 5 gal min 900 psi can clean just as good as a 1 gal min 2000 psi pump can.

Car/truck washing I would go for volume rather then pressure. Honda engine, good pump /w a good set up well worth it.

Goto a pressure washing Co. near you and buy a good one! a quality unit is the difference between night & day.

I have a Karcher 100 Bar (1450.37 psi) with a "turbo wand" and other accessories. It is a bit weak from my point of view. It can handle 45 degrees Celsius max. I unfortuantely could not afford a better model (300 bars =4351.13 psi) however one of my buddies has one and he lets me use it when I need more power. 100 bars of pressure is enough for (relatively) softly washing the heavy grime off the body and showering the car with shampoo (special suds head) before grabbing the mitt, although I seldom use that method in place of my regular 5 bucket method.

Both models I am metioning are electrical (220V)



Wife promised I can buy a 350 bars heated model next year. (It is quite bulky and I will need plenty of diesel fuel to heat the water -up to 85 degrees C but whatever it is; I want it bad !!)
