A header tank is standard with a float valve and low-level cut-out switch is standard on these units. All our 450 – 500bar electric high pressure cleaners come standard with a safety valve.

I carried out a range of tests on some of the best portable pressure washers to determine any flaws in their design, power, performance, noise levels, safety, additional features, and overall value for money.

They’re particularly useful for taking with you on the go – on camping trips or walks – and for cleaning cars and bikes without being tethered to mains power. Few people enjoy cleaning, especially when it involves tough surfaces such as patios, garages, garden furniture and stonework. And then there’s the difficult task of cleaning the delicate moving parts on your bike, or the alloy wheels on your motor. Some high-power washers have ECO settings which produce a lower-pressure jet. This allows their battery to last for longer and you can switch to high pressure only when it’s necessary.

The biggest problem is always going to be how long your battery powered pressure washer will last. This can vary quite dramatically between cordless pressure washers, and the charging time is also worth bearing in mind. Power & Performance: The main factors I tested for power and performance were each pressure washer’s bar pressure and motor type. Adjustable pressure settings are a must, so models with high, low, and “turbo” settings that range from 5 – over 100 bar pressure were rated the highest. I was also looking for models with brushless motors, as these are the best you can buy. Furthermore, I assessed each pressure washer’s flow rate and nozzle and spray patterns – washers with variable spray settings from 0 – 40 degrees were rated best, as these improved the versatility of the tool.

Includes 6-in-1 multi-nozzle : c hoose from 0°, 15°, 25°, 40° to increase or decrease the angle of your pressure washing spray for a more concentrated jet or wider area coverage. There's also a shower and direct stream option . Another option to consider is ‘interchangeable batteries’. Several brands, like WORX, have products that work on compatible batteries. This means you can use the same battery in your drill and your cordless pressure washer. The benefit of cordless pressure washers, with their lower bar pressure, is that they tend to have a range of gentler pressure settings, so you’ll be less likely to damage paintwork with them.

There’s also an integrated 1.2L detergent tank to give your cleaning an added boost. Rotor nozzle– this nozzle is a further development of the spot-jet nozzle. As the nozzle rotates during cleaning, it combines the jet power of the spot-jet nozzle with the area power of the flat-jet nozzle. This makes it possible to clean over a wide area and almost at the same time as the spot-jet nozzle. This makes rotor nozzles suitable for joints and grooves as well as for surface cleaning. Users should bear in mind that the combination of high pressure and good area performance can cause damage to sensitive or porous surfaces.

Cordless pressure washers are more compact, mobile and somewhat less powerful versions of ordinary high-pressure cleaners. They are used to remove dirt from surfaces with a strong water jet.This is something that’s important to consider. What do you want to use your cordless portable pressure washer for? One feature that makes this pressure washer a lot more versatile is its ability to draw water from a standing source as well as a tap. This can come in exceptionally handy if you don’t have a tap near your driveway (although you will still need access to a mains power source).

Many cordless pressure washers work with a water pressure of 5 to 20 bar, which would be more accurate to call them “low-pressure cleaners”. By comparison, normal pressure washers often reach a water pressure of up to 100 bar. How does a cordless pressure washer work?

Battery-powered pressure washers with a water tank have a hose that connects the tank to the lance or high-pressure gun. On models without a water tank, the hose is used for the water supply. With both types of equipment, a hose that is as long as possible is advantageous, as this ensures freedom of movement when cleaning. On models with a water tank, the connecting hose is usually between 3 and 6 metres long. Pressure washers without a water tank have inlet hoses up to 15 metres long. Their compact size also makes them easy to use. Standard mains power pressure washers can be quite heavy and get tiring. The best cordless pressure washers weigh between 1 – 4 kg and can be easily carried around. In addition to the length of the hose, it is important to pay attention to the hose connection. With inexpensive models, the hose can only draw water from containers. With many high-quality models, it is possible to connect the hose to a water tap to ensure an uninterrupted water supply. The battery capacity It’s possible to buy cordless pressure washers with less pressure, of around 5 bar. These have the same pressure as a garden hose, but can still be useful due to their portable nature. Whereas you mustn’t use a 20 bar pressure washer to clean a pet, you could use a 5-bar option to hose them down.
