Soft washing is a method of cleaning the exterior of buildings, roofs, and other surfaces using a low-pressure water spray combined with environmentally friendly cleaning solutions. This gentle approach not only effectively removes dirt, mold, and grime but also saves significant amounts of water compared to traditional pressure washing techniques.
When it comes to water conservation, soft washing shines as a more efficient option. The lower pressure used in soft washing requires less water and achieves a higher level of cleanliness when compared to pressure washing. By utilizing specialized nozzles and detergents, soft washing can break down and remove contaminants effectively with minimal water usage.
In addition to saving water, soft washing is also safer for delicate surfaces. High-pressure washing can damage softer materials like siding, wood, and shingles, leading to costly repairs or replacements. Soft washing, on the other hand, is gentle enough to clean these surfaces without causing any harm, preserving the integrity and longevity of the materials.
A softwash system pushes out about 10 gallons of water per minute vs. traditional pressure washers coming in at about 40 gallons per minute. Also, soft washing takes less time than traditional pressure washing because a large area can be covered quickly, whereas pressure washing is very detailed and close-up work. To put this into some actual numbers, If a soft wash of a house takes 60 minutes to complete, that would equal 600 gallons of water. High pressure takes much longer, so let’s say the same house takes 2 hours to wash with pressure washers and the total gallons of water skyrockets to 4,800 gallons! It is easy to see why soft washing is the winner!
In conclusion, soft washing not only saves water but also protects surfaces, promotes environmental responsibility and ensures a thorough and effective cleaning outcome. By choosing soft washing over pressure washing, you are not only conserving water but also contributing to a greener and cleaner future.
