Pressure Washer vs. Power Washing Machine: What's the Difference?
In Nigeria, these terms are often used interchangeably, but there is a key technical difference that affects your purchase:
- Pressure Washer: Uses high-pressure cold water to blast away dust, mud, and loose paint. It is the best choice for washing cars, cleaning compound walls, and residential use.
- Power Washing Machine: These units (like the Karcher HDS series) feature a heating element to use hot water. The combination of high pressure and heat makes a "Power Washer" the ultimate tool for heavy-duty industrial degreasing and removing stubborn oil stains from factory floors.

How to Choose the Right Machine
- For Residential & Private Cars: The Karcher K 2 Basic is Nigeria’s favorite entry-level pressure washer. It is lightweight, energy-efficient, and perfect for clearing moss from fences or keeping your SUV sparkling.
- For Professional Car Wash Businesses: If you run a mobile car wash, the HD 5/11 P is the perfect portable power washing machine. It can operate both horizontally and vertically, making it stable on uneven ground.
- For Industrial Degreasing: To clean engine bays, oily warehouse floors, or food processing areas, you need a Hot Water Power Washer like the HDS 5/11 U. Hot water breaks down grease and lipids 50% faster than cold water pressure alone.
- Gasoline-Powered Alternatives: For sites without steady electricity, we occasionally stock Lutian and Total gasoline power washers ranging from ₦155,000 to ₦450,000.
Essential Add-Ons
To protect your power washing machine's motor from the Nigerian power grid and ensure a steady water flow, consider these essentials:
- Water Pumps & Tanks – Ensures consistent intake pressure so your machine doesn't run dry.
- Stabilizers & Generators – Protects sensitive induction motors from voltage fluctuations.
