Zoom on the Simpson ALH3425-S

In summary, the Simpson ALH3425-S is a heavy duty, commercial pressure washer, that offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and also:

  • spot cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces or high reach areas
  • intense cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces
  • cleaning of painted or delicate surfaces
  • use of detergent and cleaning solutions

Its power characteristics and design, its main features and all its additional features are presented ahead.

Power

The Simpson ALH3425-S in use

The Simpson ALH3425-S

Its triplex pump, which utilizes a 196cc (5.5 hp) engine, may deliver a pressure of up to 3600 PSI (almost 60 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.5 GPM. These values correspond to a cleaning power of 9000 Cleaning Units.

The Honda GX200 engine of this gas-powered pressure washer relies on an old-school pull-start mechanism to get started.

Gasoline is stored in a steel fuel tank with a maximum capacity of 0.83 gallon.

Design & Handling

The wheelbarrow design of the Simpson ALH3425-S grants mobility and stability to the unit. The aluminum frame grants the device a good durability, as it will not rust. The handle adds to the ALH3425-S convenience of transport.

With a weight of 78 lbs, the unit can be easily maneuvered by most users. Since the 196cc Honda GX200 engine and triplex pump account for a large part of its weight, Simpson's utilization of an aluminum frame keeps the unit at a reasonable weight. However, the two 10" pneumatic wheels allow the ALH3425-S to be easily manipulated and maneuvered.

Main Features

The Simpson ALH3425-S in use

The Simpson ALH3425-S

Along with the Simpson ALH3425-S 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: While the device doesn't feature a soap tank, detergent supply is ensured by a siphon hose. The Simpson ALH3425-S features an automatic soap dilution mechanism, that will dilute your detergent with a 7:1 ratio. Whenever a soap nozzle is connected, the detergent is automatically added to the water.
  • Pressure hose: A neat storage for the included 35 ft ⌀5/16" high-pressure hose is facilitated by a set of convenient hooks.
  • Spray gun and wand: A side hook enables you to easily store the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its steel wand.
  • Nozzles: The following table illustrates the 5 included nozzles, along with the surfaces which they are the most suitable for.
