Description
Zoom on the Sun Joe SPX2005P
In a nutshell, the Sun Joe SPX2005P is a medium duty pressure washer that allows:
- spot cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces and high-reach cleaning
- intense cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces
- cleaning of painted or delicate surfaces
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
The Sun Joe SPX2005P
The Sun Joe SPX2005P's axial cam pump, powered by a 13 amp universal motor, can provide a pressure of up to 2100 PSI (approximately 35 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.8 GPM (values as per CSA testing standards). These are the maximum values that the washer can reach only under specific conditions. Under typical load, working pressure is 1600 PSI and rated flow is 1.1 GPM. The Sun Joe SPX2005P thus has a cleaning power of 1760 Cleaning Units.
The SPX2005P is an electric pressure washer and thus, can be easily started by an ON/OFF switch. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.
Design & Handling
With its portable design, the Sun Joe SPX2005P makes mobility one of its core strengths. The handle adds to the SPX2005P convenience of transport.
The unit can be very easily carried around, as it weighs just 13 lbs. Its plastic frame certainly plays a key role in this light weight. This light weight compensates for the fact that the SPX2005P doesn't have any wheels, as it's not something necessary.
Main Features
The Sun Joe SPX2005P 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 gun. The foam cannon features a dial to allow you to manually choose the detergent dilution ratio.
- Pressure hose: The 20 ft high-pressure hose, which is included with the device, can be stored neatly on the unit itself when idle, using a set of convenient hooks.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook allows for an easy storage of the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand.
- Nozzles: The 3 nozzles included with the device, and the respective surfaces which they’re the most suitable for, are shown in the following table.
0° | 15° | 40° | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Concrete, brick, masonry | Use with caution | Suitable | Suitable |
