Detergent to Water ratio |
|
| Your Powerwasher draws detergent at a 10:1 ratio. |
|
|
| Most pressure washer detergents are generally |
|
|
| concentrated within that range so minimal |
|
|
| adjustment is required. |
|
|
| If you feel like you are using more detergent than |
|
|
| is required for the application you can dilute it with |
|
|
| regular tap water. |
|
|
|
|
Detergent - What to use |
|
| We recommend that you use a cleaner which is |
|
|
| specifically designed for power washers. There |
|
|
| are different kinds available depending on the |
|
|
| application. Check with your local Home Depot |
|
|
| store for the product which is best suited for your |
|
|
| needs. |

|
|
| water in the unit. |
