Kohler 3200 psi pressure washer11/30/2023 ![]() The Simpson brand of pressure washer dominates the residential gas pressure washer market. It also allows the unit to run at lower temperature and won’t overheat even with extended (8 hours/day) use. However, it reduces RPM and since the belt absorbs vibration it improves the life of the pump and engine. Belt-drive – Requires more space to accommodate the belt and adding the belt means more maintenance and less efficiency.Also tends to vibrate and cause more noise. Direct-drive – Compact and more affordable but with extended (4+ hours/day) non-stop use can be prone to overheating the engine.There are 2 different ways of driving your pressure washer pump: direct-drive and belt-drive. Gasoline should only be stored for 3-4 months in your garage in a Jerry can. Use fresh gasoline if you haven’t used your machine since last season.

Hot water easily rips through tough stains and breaks the soild bonds to clean with ease. Hot water power washers come with a heating element / boiler to heat the water up 140 F (50 C) above its current temp. Engines with the electric starter are more expensive. Small internal combustion engines come with either electric or recoil starters (or both). 3100 PSI x 3 GPM = 9300 Cleaning Power Units.The pump is typically described by flow rate in gallons per minute.Īn example of 2 units with the same Cleaning Power but different PSI and GPM: More powerful the engine the higher the PSI. Bigger the number, the more powerful the engine. The measurement describes the volume of the combustion chamber. Gas power washer engines’ size is defined in cubic centimeters (cc). Cleaning Power = Water Pressure (PSI) x Water Flow Rate (GPM).How We Test, Review and Recommend Pressure Washers.
