Karcher vs. belt driven pressure washers

[bombitmd]

Gusto ko bumili ng pressure washer. Torn between Karcher and belt-driven (yung gamit sa mga car wash.)

Nakita ko kasi sa Youtube, parang ang lakas nung Karcher, fan spray pa. Anyone uses this for their car? Ok sana kasi small and portable. True ba na pwede mag suction from drum ang Karcher?

Yung belt-driven naman, hindi portable; ang bulky nung machine. Yun lang ayaw ko sa kanya.

Any suggestions? TIA

Subukan mo munang pumunta rito sa T.Alonzo Manila marami kang pagpipilian at sa presyo malaki ang kamurahan tungkol sa iba .

You can have a cart fabricated so you can easily move the bulky machine around.

Eto din pinagpipilian ko dati yung mga Portable karcher/black and decker pwede daw derecho sa hose sabi nung shop while yung belt driven need pa daw ng reservoir ng tubig at hindi daw pwede derecho sa hose. Yung karcher din auto off yung pump niya nag aactivate lang pag dinepress mo yung trigger while yung belt driven is constant on yung pump niya unless patayin mo directly yung pump. Mas tipid sa tubig at kuryente yung mga portable PW. I ended up buying yung black and decker 4 to 5k difference din sa karcher also pwede din kabitan ng foam cannon yung portable pressure washer

I use karcher,okay naman siya kung lakas talaga habol mo okay to tska totoo na mas matipid yung portable..kaya lang ang ayoko lang maikli yung hose galing sa machine..so kung gusto mo pumunta sa kabilang side dadalin mo pa yung machine para umabot..mas trip ko pati pag rekta sa gripo..mas nalalakasan ako e..ayun..

sir jmpet626

By order nga lang sa us yung foam cannon sir.. may attachment siya for each pressure washer brand.



Ganun din sa B&D maiksi yung hose niya so need pang buhatin yung machine pero ok lang since magaan naman siya.

How much is the BnD's psi and bar? i think the foam cannon based on what the customer service told me needs at least 2300 psi or 110 bar to operate and function like the one in the video, otherwise it they said it would not function quite as well, we're also looking for models that would support the foam cannon, the only karcher we saw that goes up to 2600 psi costs 16k in Alonzo

have you tried the foam cannon? and if ever im gonna get the BnD if its compatible what fittings do i have to choose from AG? and how is the foam gun that comes with the pressure washer is it any good like the one in the video? sorry if im asking too much i've been eyeing on this item for a long time already, although on the otherside of the story, if the foam cannon goes for more than 100$ then it would also be ok to just buy a foaming machine like the ones used in carwashes since it only costs around 5 to 7k

Planning to get a foam cannon if I find the correct fitting for it. I'll check the manual later not sure kung ilang PSI siya. Saw this thread on autogeek online

Lavor attatchment daw. I already PM'ed the thread owner and I'm just waiting for his feedback on his attachment.

The cylindrical aluminum tank used car washes? I think it also needs a separate air compressor to work and it is not portable.

Like this one?

Hmm... malamang Karcher na lang bibilin ko (na sa 6K sa may likod ng Raon; pupuntahan ko pa lang). Yun nga, maiksi lang yung hose pero maliit and light naman so puwede nga bitbitin. Mayroong maliit na parang hose yung Karcher which you can suck car shampoo or any liquid soap/detergent thru. I don't think it will create foam, tho.

For now, since mahina ang tubig sa amin, bumili ako nung big blue plastic drum, binutasan ko malapit sa baba and I plugged a faucet in it. Siguro puwede na yun para sa Karcher kung mahina humigop sa drum.

*jmpet - fan spray rin ba yung BnD?

*jed_015 - puwede ba gamitin yung Karcher WITHOUT the nozzle? Gun lang? I was hoping for a cone spray rather than fan.
