Around 100 to 120 bar suits cars, bikes and garden furniture. 130 to 150 bar handles patios, decking and fences. 150 bar and over is worth having for big patios, driveways and stubborn moss. Check the flow rate in litres an hour too, as more water rinses the dirt away faster.

Electric pressure washers suit most homes: plug in, connect the garden hose and go. Cordless models run on a battery, so they work with no socket, and many can draw water from a bucket or water butt, but most run at a lower pressure. Petrol machines have no cable and the most power for big areas, but they are louder and need servicing.
Yes. In the UK the same machine is called a jet washer, a pressure washer or a power washer. Many people also call it a Karcher, after the best known brand.
Each accessory page lists the machines it fits where the maker states them. Fittings differ between brands and ranges, so check the fit before you order. Adaptors are available for some combinations.
Never point the lance at people, pets, plants or electrical sockets. Wear eye protection and sturdy shoes, keep plugs and leads dry and use an RCD with a mains machine. Test a hidden patch first, as full pressure can damage soft wood, old mortar and car paint. Only run a petrol machine outdoors.
