Your Guide to Pressure Washer Hose Repairs

Leave a Reply

If you have been using pressure washers for a considerable amount of time, you are likely to experience a leak in the hose at some point.

As the leading supplier of pressure washers and industrial vacuums across Staffordshire, Cheshire and Derbyshire, Britclean understand the importance of keeping your products functioning for the longest time possible.

Sometimes the issue comes from touching the exhaust on a gas-powered washer with the hose, whereas it could also be old age or even just bad luck.

Pressure Washer Repairs are Different to Garden Hoses

A leak in your pressure washer hose cannot be fixed in the same way as a garden hose. Firstly, the patch won’t last as the high-pressure water will force it loose. Even a small patched leak can lead to a serious injury when it bursts open and the high-pressure water hits your body.

At the very least, you will get soaked and whatever washing task you had planned is not going to get done.

The layers of wire mesh and plastic distribute the water evenly throughout your hose which contains the pressure. Repairing the hose requires each layer to be shaped and repaired correctly or it simply won’t last.

If you feel this is not the best course of action; you can always choose to replace the hose instead.

How Britclean Repair Power Washer Hoses

If you are unfamiliar with the process of repairing a power washer hose, here are the guidelines our team follow to get your pressure washer working as good as new.

1. Switch off the pressure washer, and if it is electrical we will unplug it.
2. Press the hose trigger which releases any water from inside the hose.
3. Discover the leak and dry the area around the leak.
4. We will make a square cut on each side of the leak.
5. The diameter of the hose needs measuring.
6. A compression seal with a gate compression fitting needs creating, with the female repair coupling reverse threaded and spun counterclockwise once fitted onto the hose. We will use an adjustable wrench to tighten it, with the male repair coupling fitting inside the hose tubing with motor oil used to lubricate the tip.
7. The hose will be placed in a vice or we can use two adjustable wrenches which connect and tighten the two pieces.
8. Finally, we will connect the M22 adapter and screw the adapter onto the pressure washer.

Common Signs Your Pressure Washer Needs Repairing

Here at Britclean, we offer a number of well-known pressure washer brands such as Karcher, Ehrle, Nilfisk plus our own brand.

While we pride ourselves on the quality of our product range, we also understand that sometimes washers will require repairs and maintenance to prolong their life span.

Don’t worry if you’ve never used a pressure washer before, as we have drawn up a handy guide to identifying the most common problems that require repairs or new parts.

Three Pressure Washer Issues We Can Help With

Water Leaking – Water leaking from your pump is one of the most common issues with pressure washers, which is usually caused by either broken seals, loose bolts when the pump is assembled or a broken rubber washer.
For all of these issues, we would recommend contacting Britclean to take a look at your pressure washer to identify the issues and get them fixed in no time.

Electric Pressure Washer Problems – If your machine refuses to start this could be because of a faulty motor or the electric outlet is faulty. During use, if the motor stops running this could be caused by the low voltage which requires checking the voltage in the motor’s specified range.

Oil Leak from the Pump – Oil leaks from the pump are typically caused by loose bolts or fittings which simply need to be checked and tightened. Alternatively, damaged parts such as seals and pistons will have to be disassembled, checked clean and replaced (if required).

Excessive Noise – If your pressure washer is making more noise than usual, this could be because the water intake is blocked, which requires it be checked over, cleaned and replaced, if faulty. A lack of oil in the engine simply requires a checkup and adding a sufficient amount of oil, whereas if there is not enough oil in the pump this will require a more thorough disassembly and an oil check.

In the same way that you would use hot water to clean dishes hotter water breaks up the molecules embedded into the surface.
