  • One thing we are yet to invest in is an industrial pressure washer for use around the farm and buildings. We were super excited to try out this electric machine which also has a diesel boiler for using it in hot mode.

    Instead of using virgin aggregates, looks like you've got a lot of concrete on site that you could break up for new subbases etc. So you could hire a concrete crusher, which is a really sustainable way of recycling high carbon materials

    Nice light hearted video. The stress relief of a good old power wash!!! The little old power washer had adapted and over come to be a camera tripod. There could be a disney film in that or a children's cartoon series.

    I always loved power washing. As for a hot hose, I once worked in a commercial kitchen, and our end of night cleanup we did with a 120 degree hot hose. The nozzle was brass and you had to wear gloves to protect your hands from the hot hose and nozzle! But it left the hoods, spring kettles, stainless tables and tile floors gleaming!

      @@TheRestorationCouple Would love to help :D & yeah a surface cleaner is probably about 10x as fast on flat areas like that it's nuts. I've seen a lot of similar machines to that though i think theyre used really often in factories cleaning out greasy units etc. Heat on command without all the faff of a big static system.

    I have used pressure washers/steam cleaners a lot. If you can centralise the machine, even a non-portable one, in a building and run the hose out to where you need it they can last longer and run cheaper. Only works if you use it within a reasonable radius of the outlet, you can of course run hard lines to where you need the outlet and the hose from there. Also keeps the machine free of frost which is a not infrequent killer of these and other water filled devices.

    I had a hand-vibration problem once using a pressure washer and thought about getting some padded gardening gloves - this might be a good idea if your hands start getting a bit hot on some of the pressure washer settings.
    I hadn't seen one of the extensions used until I saw this the other day - cleaning out the inside of a barn ( czcams.com/video/5e63i_vz8Fs/video.html check about five minutes into this video). Also, I have some reallly cheap plastic waterproofs for outdoor activities and something like that could be sprayed down afterwards and left to dry - it looks like a lot of fun to get a bit wet but you might be a bit bored of it before long.
    MartyT the Kiwi guy sprayed down an old tractor with diesel to reduce rust getting worse - it might be worth considering for the older machines after you've greased them. Maybe just make sure they're stored in a place puddles don't gather beneath them and possibly tie a tarp over them. Guess you were going to do that anyway...

    Avoid power washing asbestos down pipes (can be 50% asbestos), cladding or roof sheets. Anything like that is best left undisturbed until it's removed.
    Using extension leads with pressure washers leads to premature motor death. They recommend a longer high pressure hose instead.

      We actually chatted with Karcher at a show last week and they suggested exactly that. I think going forward if we get our own machine, we will aim to have in central and run the hose out further, 👍
