Pressure Washer Scheduled Maintenance Program
Industrial-grade pressure washers are put through the paces, often used in dirty, dusty
conditions. However, with proper care and scheduled check-ups you can extend the life
of your pressure washer greatly. Hotsy Cleaning Systems, Inc. offers a scheduled
maintenance program to keep your cleaning equipment working properly.
Why consider scheduled maintenance? Here are a few important reasons
-
Most pressure washer/steam cleaners are operated for long periods of time,
and are not checked or repaired unless they break down.
-
Units are operated with marginal hoses, safety valves, and pressure unloaders
that often are not working properly, which could cause safety hazard
-
The pressure washer slowly decreases in pressure during operation due to a
number of reasons: the coil being clogged with lime*; the unloader sticking;
poor pump packings, etc. These cause an increase in labor hours to perform your cleaning jobs.
Still not sure if you should sign up for scheduled maintenance? The advantages are many.
For instance, the entire pressure washer is checked and tested with a pressure gauge to
insure all systems are working satisfactory. The service technician reviews a check-off
list and then recommends needed repairs.

You can choose to purchase parts and replace them yourself,
have our technician perform the work if he has the parts in his truck, or you can have
the tech replace the part on his next visit.
In summary, you will save travel time of repeat service calls and only pay for parts and
actual pressure washer repair time required. Machines working at correct pressure save labor hours for
cleaning and operate with less overall maintenance requirements.
*NOTE: With Wisconsin water, if you do not have a water softener, the pressure
washer will usually need deliming of the coil every three months or annually if you
have a softener.
