Power Washer
Power Washer
I plan to buy a power washer to wash the deck. Of course, my concern is price and power. Here are three choices I found.: walmart: 1500psi for $150 homedepot: either 1400 psi for $98 or 1750 psi for $179. I'm leaning towards 1400 psi for $98. But I'm a little bit concerned if that is enough pressure for washing the deck. Thanks |

For deck cleaning I'd move up to 1500 psi - 2200 psi and 2.0 gpm or more. However, make a note that too much pressure can dig into the wood and damage your decking, so use caution when you first start using your new pressure washer. |
