Soft Washing Vs Pressure Washing

Soft washing is a cleaning technique that utilizes a low pressure to dispense water from the hose. The pressure of water in soft washing is around 500 PSI. It can also use a variety of cleaning solutions, including;

• Bleach- Helps get rid of all the stubborn stains on the surface of your house.
• Algaecides- These help get rid of all the algae and moss growing on the surfaces. They also get into the root systems and prevent future growth.
• Surfactants- They help loosen up, trap, and carry away all the dirt and debris on the surfaces.

Soft House Washing uses a high volume of water and is used mainly on soft surfaces that cannot withstand a lot of pressure. Soft washing is effective in removing dirt and stains when handled carefully, but if you use too many chemicals, it could damage the surface.

On the other hand, pressure washing is a cleaning method that uses a stream of high pressure to remove the dirt and build upon surfaces. The water pressure in this cleaning method is around 2,000 PSI.

In pressure washing, very few cleaning chemicals are used, if any, and people depend on the pressure to remove the dirt. If the dirt is severe warm water is used instead of cold water. The pressure used is regulated depending on the type of surface and the severity of the dirt.

When used properly, it is efficient in removing some of the most stubborn dirt and stains, but when mishandled, it could cause damage to the surface and hurt the person cleaning.

One of the hardest things to determine when comparing soft washing vs pressure washing is when to use either of the cleaning methods.

How We Soft Wash Homes

When we visit our house washing Mississippi gulf coast clients, who want us to soft wash their house, we use our proprietary cleaning mixture which contains algaecides that kill the most stubborn of dirt, grime and other environmental accumulations. Our proportioner system helps us automatically mix them in the right proportions to avoid damaging the surfaces.

If there are any plants around the surfaces we want to clean; we cover them with a protective cover to avoid them getting damaged by the washing chemicals. We then soak the surfaces with water for a few minutes and apply the chemicals.

We allow the chemicals to sit on the surface for a while to break down the dirt. If the dirt has not broken down enough after 5 minutes, we reapply the chemical mixture. We then rinse off the chemicals with water under low pressure, such that no chemicals are left on the surface.

When To Soft Wash Your Home

How often you wash your home mostly depends on where you live. If you live in places with a lot of wind and dust, you need to clean your home after a few months. Similarly, if you live in a place with a lot of trees, you also have to clean it after a few months because of the leaves.

Coastal house washing should also happen frequently because the location's humidity makes your home vulnerable to growths like moss and algae.

Some of the signs that you need to soft wash your home include;
• Green or black spots on the surfaces.
• A lot of dust and dirt buildup on the surface.
• The greyish substance of the walls and other surfaces.
• Stubborn stains that won’t come off after a simple wash.
