- Engine & Pump: The AR Blue Clean AR383SS and the AR Blue Clean AR383S both use an axial-type pump to put water under pressure. These 2 pumps are manufactured by Annovi Reverberi. In either case, the pump is powered by a 13-amp Universal motor.
The following charts are provided to show you at a glance how the main specs of the AR Blue Clean AR383SS compare to the AR Blue Clean AR383S.

- Water Flow: These 2 units offer the same maximum water flow. Each of them should be able to deliver a maximum of 1.3 GPM (gallons per minute) and to offer the same rinsing power.
- Cleaning Power: With its 2470 C.U., the AR Blue Clean AR383SS offers a somewhat higher overall cleaning efficiency than the AR383S and its 2340 C.U.
Design Comparison
- Design: With their compact design, both units are constructed with a strong focus on portability in mind.
- Weight: Considering that both devices weigh 26 lbs, neither of them will require more effort to be manually lifted and transported.
- Maneuverability: Both products benefit from a set of wheels, which greatly contributes to their maneuverability. Both offer a handle, which improves your grip when you wish to move them.
Feature Comparison
- Soap Addition: Both washers allow for the addition of chemical detergent solutions to the water. Whether you choose the AR383SS or the AR383S, you'll be able to store your cleaning chemicals in the unit's onboard soap tank. Their soap capacity is equal, as the tanks of both units can hold 0.2 gal of detergent.
- Trigger Gun & Wand: While each of these 2 units comes with a fairly standard ergonomic trigger gun, the AR Blue Clean AR383SS sports a classic wand, while the AR Blue Clean AR383S has an adjustable one.
- Nozzles: The AR383S doesn't come with any nozzles (its aforementioned wand removes the need for any), but the AR383SS is supplied with four (0°, 25°, soap, and a turbo nozzle).
- Reach: With its included 30 ft high-pressure hose, the AR Blue Clean AR383SS will allow you, out of the box, to move farther away from the unit than the AR Blue Clean AR383S and its 20 ft high pressure hose. As both units feature a 35 ft power cord, their maximum allowable placement from an electrical outlet is the same.
- Storage: The AR383SS and AR383S both offer onboard storage that allows you to neatly keep the accessories you need at hand. Moreover, both feature a reel to allow you to conveniently and neatly store your pressure hose.
