Zoom on the A-iPower GPW3400
In summary, the A-iPower GPW3400 is a heavy duty pressure washer, that offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and also:
- targeted spot cleaning for hard, unpainted surfaces, reaching elevated areas, and thoroughly removing stubborn stains

The following sections will present you in detail its power characteristics and design, its main features and all the additional features it has to offer.
Power
The A-iPower GPW3400
With an impressive 212cc engine, its axial cam pump delivers a pressure of 3400 PSI (roughly 57 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.4 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer), resulting in the A-iPower GPW3400's cleaning power of 8160 Cleaning Units.
Starting the engine of this gas pressure washer involves using a conventional pull-start method.
Design & Handling
The A-iPower GPW3400's mobility is greatly enhanced by its hand truck design. Guaranteeing longevity, the robust welded steel frame offers stability and protects internal components, even when subjected to demanding tasks. The folding handle enhances its mobility, while allowing for a convenient storage.
With a weight of 64 lbs, this unit is designed for ease of maneuverability, catering to a wide range of users. That weight is mainly due to the inclusion of the 212cc engine and a solid welded steel frame. Nevertheless, the GPW3400's two 12" never-flat wheels ensure it remains easy to maneuver.
Main Features
The A-iPower GPW3400 comes with a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are detailed below.
- Soap injection: The pressure washer comes equipped with a dedicated tank to store detergent. Upon connecting a soap nozzle, the pressure washer takes over the task of seamlessly combining the detergent with the water flow.
- Pressure hose: The included 35 ft high-pressure hose can be neatly stored on the unit when not in use, utilizing a set of convenient hooks for convenient organization.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook enables you to easily store the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand.
