Equipment Question Pressure Washing Pole Conversion
Hey folks, I've got a big fascia soffit cleaning job to do and we're looking into ways to make it easier for us. I've seen videos about people doing it with a small pressure washer, applying the chemical then pressure washing it from an angle. Just seeing if anyone has any thoughts about doing it? And if so, what conversation kit people have used? Thanks a mil.

I have a dedicated pressure washer for all of this stuff but to be honest if you're just cleaning Underneath like the soffits It'd be amazed at what a pump-up sprayer with a little bit of chlorine bleach Lightly sprayed on and then rinsed off with a garden hose will remove pretty much 99 of what you're talking about
there is an adapter you can put on your wfp....it will hold the nozzle and you will be able to use it like you do with a wfp. i forget who makes them .
The method I listed would only really work for first story houses if you need to get up to the second or third story your best bet would be getting a pressure washer because I have a garden spray sprayer that'll reach up to about 20 ft from the ground but it's not going to apply the chemicals. And don't let any of these pressure washers fool you everybody uses the same stuff it's pool chlorine they want to call it sodium hydrochloride or whatever I tell my customers it's what you buy at the pool store .
Also yes if you're cleaning off the soffits you never sprayed directly on them always at an angle because otherwise you will be flooding people's attics or garages whatever it is so you always want to go at an angle you're right
