If you need a large outdoor area cleaned up, whether it’s a patio, driveway, office block car park or the local pool centre, high pressure cleaning services in Adelaide can help. It can be an awful distraction to encounter day after day, the dirty stains from busy feet and oil spots from vehicles.
Commercial pressure cleaners, for public and domestic use, are specifically designed and engineered to make cleaning larger areas both economical and time efficient. Commercial grade machines are ideal for all kinds of situations and are reliable and long lasting so they won’t give out on the job. Cleaning a large area is an enormous task, some warehouses and office blocks can be anywhere from 500 to well over 5000 square metres. This is why a commercial high-pressure system is important. Labour costs aside, the time it would take someone to manually clean that kind of area would be a waste and impossible when it comes to the past paced lifestyle of any Australian city.
The basic high-pressure system consists of a motor, which can be electric, combustion, hydraulic or pneumatic, a high-pressure hose and a trigger gun or nozzle that determines the spray. All parts of a high-pressure system should be regularly serviced, repaired and maintained to ensure they are working optimally. Every pump unit should undergo daily pre-operational checks. Water filters and strainers should be cleaned through to prevent the control mechanisms from malfunctioning. Hose, couplings, connectors and hose end fittings selected before assembly should be suitable for use with the maximum working pressure of the high-pressure water-jetting unit to be used. A high-pressure system is also known as a water blaster and literally blasts water to remove dirt, debris and oil from surfaces. There are a few types of high-pressure systems that could suit your needs and roughly fall under three categories, industrial, commercial and domestic. Water pressure is measured in PSI (pounds per square inch) and serves to break the chemical bond that forms between stain and surface. Water flow is measured in LPM (litres per minute). The larger the LPM the more surface area a pressure washer can clean.
Common hazards and risks include the water jet piercing the skin, being hit by flying debris and exposure to noise. Other hazards associated with high pressure water jetting include working in confined spaces, fall hazards, respiratory and eye hazards, electric shock and potential exposure to hazardous chemicals. Safe Work Australia outlines that “so far as is reasonably practicable, workers and other people are not exposed to health and safety risks arising from the business or undertaking.”
The Safe Work guide provides a systematic process for risk management associated with high-pressure cleaners.
Identifying hazards – find out what could cause harm in high pressure water jetting operations Assessing risks if necessary – understand the nature of the harm that could be caused by the hazard, how serious the harm could be and the likelihood of it happening Controlling risks – implement the most effective control measures that are reasonably practicable in the circumstances, and Reviewing control measures to ensure they are working as planned. It is important to hire professional workers who are familiar with and properly trained in high-pressure systems. Work Safe determines that “Workers who operate high pressure water jetting equipment should maintain their competency. This can be assessed and revised by providing refresher training or by evaluating and documenting an assessment of the high-pressure water jetting operation.”
