Is power washing and pressure washing the same thing?
Power washing and pressure washing are not the same thing. Power washing is using hot water that is heated by a large coil and a diesel burner system, which helps cleaning solutions work better. For example, when washing your hands or dishes in your kitchen sink, soap and hot water will clean faster and do a better job cleaning your dishes.
Pressure washing is using cold water. Pressure washing is a more aggressive form of cleaning that uses water at high pressure to scrub surfaces clean instead of using cleaning solutions. This type of cleaning should only be used for blasting paint off surfaces or Industrial cleaning.
