What are the advantages and disadvantages of an electric-powered pressure washer?
Electric pressure washers are smaller, lighter and can be operated without the hassle of gas cans, fumes and noise associated with any type of gasoline-powered engine. Because there is no carbon monoxide produced they can also be used indoors. On the down side, they are limited in both pressure and water flow and are suitable only for occasional, non-commercial uses. An example of a good, general-purpose electric pressure washer for around the house would be Husky’s 1800 PSI Power Washer, which is compact, portable, and easy to set up and use. It also has a convenient detergent tank as well as built-in GFI circuit protection for safety.
