What is Softwashing?

Published on Thursday, April 25, 2019

Softwashing in PennsylvaniaWhat is softwashing?

Unlike pressure washing, soft washing uses low-pressure pumps with PSI less than 1,000; equivalent to that of a garden hose. By using less pressure than that of a pressure washer, and relying instead on these powerful biodegradable and eco-friendly detergents and dwell time, you can count on the soft washer to deliver a cleaner surface. Not only are they often more effective than a pressure washer, but they use a far less amount of water too. Softwashing is also a method recommended by most major insurers, and even the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturing Association (ARMA). We recommend using a soft washer for surfaces such as but not limited to:

  • Wood panel siding
  • Cedar Shake
  • Stucco and coquina
  • Screens, screened enclosures, and lanais
