Surface Cleaner FAQs

Surface cleaners are specially designed to clean large surfaces in industrial and commercial situations. You may have questions about their functions and uses. Listed below are some of the most commonly asked questions:

Question:
Should I opt for a surface cleaning machine with a large cleaning surface?

Answer:
This really depends on how you will be looking to use the machine. The advantage of larger machines is that they can clean more quickly. This can obviously be useful, helping you to complete the job in the shortest possible timescale.

But they aren't ideal in all situations. If you're cleaning a space, for example, that already has a number of obstacles in place, then you may find that a smaller machine will be more mobile and practical. When looking to buy a surface cleaning machine, you should find that the cleaning diameter is listed.

Answer:
These devices are specifically designed for ease of use. They are highly portable and designed with the needs of the operative in mind. Basic training should be sufficient to ensure ease of use in most situations.

What are the main applications of these devices?

Answer:
Surface cleaners can be used in many different situations. They are ideal for cleaning flat surfaces, such as driveways, car parks and flat rooftops.

Question:
How quickly do they clean?

Answer:
All surface cleaners have a maximum cleaning speed. They would be expected to clean at a rate of at least 15 square metres per minute. Some machines can clean at speeds closer to 30 square metres per minute. The cleaning speed that can be achieved depends upon the power of the machine, the water flow rate and the size of the cleaning surface.

Can they be used to remove graffiti?

Answer:
Graffiti is particularly difficult to remove. Fortunately, these machines are very effective at removing graffiti, as well as gum and other substances that aren't easily removed by alternative cleaning devices.

These substances can be removed from a variety of different surfaces, including tiles, grout and other hard surfaces.
