Description
Zoom on the A-iPower PWF3400KV
In summary, the A-iPower PWF3400KV is a heavy duty, commercial pressure washer, that offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and also:
- broad cleaning of hard surfaces, vehicle washing, and surface preparation for painting

- spot cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces, and 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
Utilizing a 200cc engine, this machine's axial cam pump can deliver a pressure of 3400 PSI (around 57 times stronger than a standard garden hose) and a flow rate of up to 2.4 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). Thus, the A-iPower PWF3400KV achieves a cleaning power of 8160 Cleaning Units.
Initiating the Kohler XTX950 engine of this gas pressure washer is achieved through a classic pull-start process.
Containing gasoline, the pressure washer's fuel tank can hold a maximum of 0.35 gallon.
Design & Handling
The A-iPower PWF3400KV is very mobile, due to its hand truck design and approximate dimensions of D21.3 x W20.4 x H40.2 in. The robust welded steel frame guarantees longevity of the assembly, providing stability and protection for internal components, even under demanding working conditions. The folding handle enhances its mobility, while allowing for a convenient storage.
With its 62 lbs weight, this unit offers a manageable size that allows for easy handling by most individuals, enhancing user convenience during operation. A significant portion of this weight is attributed to the inclusion of the 200cc Kohler XTX950 engine and a sturdy welded steel frame. Nevertheless, the PWF3400KV's two 12" never-flat wheels ensure it remains easy to maneuver.
Main Features
Along with the A-iPower PWF3400KV itself, the package also includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are discussed in further detail below.
- Soap injection: A dedicated tank ensures storage for detergent within the pressure washer. The pressure washer automatically dispenses and mixes the detergent with the water when a soap nozzle is attached.
- Pressure hose: Utilizing a set of convenient hooks, the unit offers a convenient solution for storing the included 30 ft ⌀1/4" high-pressure hose when it's not in use, keeping it neatly organized.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook enables you to easily store the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand.
- Nozzles: The table below shows you the 5 included nozzles and the surfaces they're the most appropriate for.
