Zoom on the AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSB
The AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSB is a medium duty pressure washer, that provides its users with an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and enables:
- complete cleaning of hard surfaces, vehicle washing, and surface prep for painting
- utilizing cleaning solutions, and rinsing surfaces clean
- 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
Powered by a 13-amp universal motor, its axial (wobble plate) pump can deliver a pressure of 2300 PSI (around 38 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.7 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). While these PSI and GPM values represent the maximum capabilities of the washer under specific conditions, it's important to note that under typical usage, the working pressure is 1800 PSI and the flow rate is 1.1 GPM. With these values combined, the AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSB boasts a cleaning power of 1980 Cleaning Units.
With its electric design, the BC2N1HSB starts up effortlessly with a quick press of an ON/OFF switch, ensuring ease of use. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.
Design & Handling
The AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSB's mobility is greatly enhanced by its hand truck design. The robust metal frame guarantees longevity of the assembly, providing stability and protection for internal components, even under demanding working conditions. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the BC2N1HSB convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
At just 31.1 lbs, this unit is incredibly lightweight, ensuring hassle-free mobility wherever you need it. Complementing its lightweight frame, two 7" never-flat wheels are integrated, facilitating effortless transportation.
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 BC2N1HSB comes with a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 3 nozzles and a detergent addition feature, which are detailed below.
- Soap addition: Detergent is added to the water at the exit, by attaching the included foam cannon to the end of the wand. The foam cannon is equipped with a dial, enabling you to manually adjust the detergent dilution ratio.
- Pressure hose: For easy organization, the included 25 ft high-pressure hose can be stored on the unit using a set of convenient hooks when it's not in use, ensuring a clutter-free workspace.

- Reaching a 2300 PSI max pressure output, the AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSB has an expected pressure value, compared to the other electric units in the $240 to $300 price range. If the highest possible power of the water stream is your priority, one of the champions in this price range is the Westinghouse WPX3000e with 3000 PSI.
- Boasting a water flow of up to 1.7 GPM, this washer occupies the higher ranks of the price range mentioned above, ensuring a substantial water volume.

- Amongst similarly priced electric devices, the 1980 Cleaning Units of the BC2N1HSB rank as low. If you consider the highest overall cleaning power as a really important factor, the BE P2115EN and its 3440 Cleaning Units has one of the highest cleaning efficiency of all the similarly priced units.
