Power
The Ryobi RY142022
The Ryobi RY142022's axial pump, powered by a 13-amp universal motor, can provide a pressure of up to 2000 PSI (approximately 33 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.2 GPM (values as per PW101-2010). Thus, the Ryobi RY142022 achieves a cleaning power of 2400 Cleaning Units.
The RY142022 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 Ryobi RY142022's commitment to mobility is evident through its portable design and approximate dimensions of D16.4 x W14.6 x H17.2 in. Guaranteeing longevity, the robust metal frame offers stability and protects internal components, even when subjected to demanding tasks. The telescopic handle further eases storage and offers a convenient pulling height, allowing effortless transportation.
This unit's low weight of 29 lbs ensures easy maneuverability, allowing you to tackle cleaning projects with minimal effort. Enhancing its already lightweight design, the unit boasts two 6" never-flat wheels, making transportation effortless.
Main Features
Along with the Ryobi RY142022 itself, the package also includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 3 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are discussed in further detail below.
- Soap injection: Detergent is stored in a dedicated tank. The detergent is diluted with a 20:1 ratio by the Ryobi RY142022's automatic soap dilution mechanism. Attachment of a soap nozzle prompts the pressure washer to automatically introduce and blend the detergent with the water.
- Pressure hose: With a set of easy-to-use straps, the unit offers a practical solution for maintaining workspace order, allowing the included 25 ft ⌀1/4" high-pressure hose to be neatly stored when idle.
- Spray gun and wand: Both the classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand may be conveniently stored in a dedicated slot.
- Nozzles: The table below shows you the 3 included nozzles and the surfaces they're the most appropriate for.
15° | Soap | Turbo | |

| Concrete, brick, masonry | |||
| Siding, gutters, house | |||
