Description
Zoom on the AR Blue Clean AR2N1
The AR Blue Clean AR2N1 is a medium duty pressure washer, that provides its users with an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and enables:
- focused spot cleaning on hard, unpainted surfaces, accessing high spots, and efficiently eliminating stubborn stains
- broad cleaning of hard surfaces, vehicle washing, and surface preparation for painting
- applying detergents or chemicals, and rinsing surfaces afterward
Ahead are presented its power characteristics and design, its main features and any other additional features.
Power
The AR Blue Clean AR2N1's axial (wobble plate) pump, powered by a 13-amp universal motor, can provide a pressure of up to 2050 PSI (approximately 34 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.4 GPM (values as per CSA testing standards). Thus, the AR Blue Clean AR2N1 achieves a cleaning power of 2870 Cleaning Units.
Being an electric unit, the AR2N1 easily starts up with the press of an ON/OFF button, providing seamless operation. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.
Design & Handling
With its hand truck design and approximate dimensions of D23 x W18 x H36 in, the AR Blue Clean AR2N1 provides great mobility. Guaranteeing longevity, the robust metal frame offers stability and protects internal components, even when subjected to demanding tasks. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the AR2N1 convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
With a weight of 36.4 lbs, this unit is designed for ease of maneuverability, catering to a wide range of users. Its motor and metal frame account for a good chunk of that weight. Despite this, the AR2N1's two 8" wheels ensure effortless maneuverability.
In addition to that, the unit can be detached from the frame to become a versatile hand-carry device that allows you to use it anywhere on-the-go.
Main Features
The AR Blue Clean AR2N1's package includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, with a more detailed description below.
- Soap injection: The pressure washer features a removable 0.2 gal tank for detergent storage. The device has a dial which allows you to manually select the detergent dilution ratio. Upon attaching a soap nozzle, the pressure washer seamlessly integrates the detergent into the water flow.
- Pressure hose: When not in use, the unit allows for tidy storage of the included 25 ft high-pressure hose using a set of convenient hooks, ensuring convenient organization.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook allows for an easy storage of the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its steel wand.
