Top 6 Necessary Attachments and Accessories for Your Pressure Washer
These are the top accessories to keep your pressure washer working at its peak. Let's dig it out!
Gutter Cleaner
When you wash your house, you need to clean the gutters. With a distinctive curved shape that gets the job done perfectly, the gutter cleaner is the perfect choice for tall homes where gutters are often hard to reach.
A gutter is a place where a lot of dirt, garbage, and even dry leaves are. They are often in hard-to-reach places, so they are not cleaned regularly.
This accessory will help you reach that area easily and provide the same amount of pressure as using the normal nozzle. Now you can easily buy them anywhere and at the right price to add a useful tool to your pressure washer.
Foam Cannon
The Foam Cannon is an essential tool for any pressure washer. It mixes air, water, and detergent to create a thick, soapy foam that clings to surfaces as you clean. Actually, this is the best accessory for those who like washing cars at home. The foam helps the detergent soak into dirty surfaces, allowing your pressure washer to cut through grease and grime more effectively.
Foam Cannons are compatible with pressure washers with water flow rates ranging from 1.8 to 6.6 gallons per minute (GPM). The detergent is dispensed at a lower pressure, and then high-pressure water is used for rinsing.
Foam Cannons can be used with almost any brand of pressure washer so you don't need to worry about choosing which one.
Water Broom
A water broom is a handy attachment for your pressure washer that makes large surface cleaning jobs much easier by spraying a bar with multiple nozzles and wheels for mobility. When you connect it to your pressure washer hose, it evenly sprays a wide path of high-pressure water as you roll it along.
So what kinds of pressure washers work best? For optimal performance, you'll want a pressure washer with at least 1000 PSI and 3-4 gallons per minute of water flow.
If you have a lot of hardscaping around your property that gets dirty easily, a water broom is a fantastic tool. Just connect it to your pressure washer and roll it across the surface – it will quickly blast away dirt, dust, mud, leaves and more from cracks and crevices too.
Multi-Function Nozzle
Are you tired of constantly switching nozzles on your pressure washer to get different spray angles? Meteor Blast 6-in-1 Pressure Washer Nozzle could be the solution you've been looking for. No more storing and managing multiple individual nozzles. This single, all-in-one nozzle replaces the need for collecting 4 or 5 separate nozzles to get the same range of spray angles.
Surface Scrubber
Basically, it's like a flat "wand" with cushioned brushes on the bottom that you attach to your pressure washer hose. After you fill-up the detergent reservoir with deck cleaner, turn on the pressure washer and start scrubbing away. The brushes move the cleaning solution over the deck boards while loosening up all the dirt and debris. It's a good idea to clean wood decks or pressure wash your driveway around your house. The best part is the brushes are soft so they don't damage or scratch up the wood like some pressure washer nozzles can do over time. All you have to do is push and pull the flathead tool back and forth and let the brushes and cleaning solution do the work. I was able to get my whole deck spotless in half the time!
Undercarriage Cleaner
Another great accessory for those who love to wash their cars at home. Undercarriage cleaners are really helpful to reach places that you can't reach with a regular pressure wash hose such as the underside of the car, the bottom of the boat, etc … They come with wheels for easy portability. For good performance, you should choose the right pressure level. Usually, it will be 4000-5000 PSI, so choosing the right pressure washer from the beginning is very important.
