Stop Pressure Washing to Eliminate Health and Safety Risks

Pressure washing of dirty equipment creates contaminated aerosols which are a major health risk to your staff. Equipment washers such as the AquaPhase and RehaWash use chemicals that are formulated to remove difficult soils. They wash equipment within a contained chamber, eliminating aerosols that can cause health issues.

There are many other benefits of equipment washers in comparison to pressure washing.

Cost Savings

• Equipment washers use a measured amount of water which reduces water wastage
• They clean and rinse under low pressure, increasing the lifespan of equipment by reducing damage caused to bolts and bearings
• Minimal PPE required in comparison to the facial/body/breathing apparatus needed to protect staff from harmful aerosols when pressure washing

Improved Efficiency

• Equipment washers free up staff time to focus on priorities and other tasks
• Faster cleaning with multiple nozzles means more equipment can be cleaned in a day
• Automated operation takes away guess work which means the results are repeatable every time

Health and Safety

• Waste from equipment washers is plumbed directly into the foul drain instead of being in the open
• Reduced risk of falls as there is no water on the floor
• Automated operation of machines stops human intervention, reducing the risk of crosscontamination
