Bosch UniversalAquatak 135 Electric Pressure Washer 135 Bar

The Bosch UniversalAquatak 135 is an electric pressure washer for everyday cleaning around the home. A 1900W motor gives up to 135 bar. Flow is 410 litres an hour. Owners use it on patios and driveways. It also washes cars and garden pots. Bosch aims it at fast and easy results.

You get two nozzles. The 3 in 1 nozzle switches between three spray types. It includes a pencil jet that Bosch says improves cleaning by 10 percent. The second is a 450ml high pressure detergent nozzle. It applies cleaner as foam for faster coverage.

The pump has three cylinders and an all metal build. A water filter protects it. Auto Stop shuts the motor down when the trigger is released. That conserves energy. Self priming reaches 0.5m. You can draw from a water butt with a suction hose. The hose is sold separately.

Setup uses push fit connections. The 7m PVC hose winds on a manual hose reel. The cable is 5m. The handle collapses and the wheels help you move it. The body weighs 7.9kg. It is a light and well liked all rounder. Owners praise its low noise and leak free joints.

This washer runs a three cylinder all metal pump. More cylinders give a smoother and steadier flow than a single piston. The motor is a series type. Max pressure is 135 bar and flow is 410 litres an hour. Auto Stop cuts the motor between sprays so it only draws power in use. The detergent nozzle uses the high pressure side to draw cleaner through. Inlet water can be up to 40°C.

Wear eye protection and non slip shoes. Never aim the gun at people or pets. Keep the plug and connections dry and use a safe outdoor supply. Let go of the trigger before changing nozzles. Keep inlet water below 40°C. Start on a wide spray and move closer on tough marks. Do not use the pencil jet on soft surfaces.
