Power
The Westinghouse ePX3050
With a 13 amp motor, its axial cam pump delivers a pressure of 2030 PSI (roughly 34 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.76 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer), resulting in the Westinghouse ePX3050's cleaning power of 3572.8 Cleaning Units.
The ePX3050 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 and approximate dimensions of D13.5 x W14 x H16.5 in, the Westinghouse ePX3050 makes mobility one of its core strengths. The handle adds to the ePX3050 convenience of transport. The handle remains sturdy and will never fall apart, as it is molded in the frame.
The unit can be very easily carried around, as it weighs just 19 lbs. It is lightweight, partly thanks to its plastic frame. As if this lightweight wasn't enough, the device also features four solid wheels to further improve its ease of use and of transport.
Main Features
The Westinghouse ePX3050
The Westinghouse ePX3050 comes with a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 4 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are detailed below.
- Soap injection: Detergent is stored in a 0.16 gal tank. As the Westinghouse ePX3050 doesn’t include a soap dilution mechanism, the user must provide a correctly diluted detergent before proceeding to use it. Whenever a soap nozzle is connected, the detergent is automatically added to the water.
- Pressure hose: The included 15 ft ⌀25/64" high-pressure hose can be neatly stored on the unit when idle thanks to a set of convenient hooks.
- Spray gun and wand: Both the classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand may be conveniently stored in a side hook.
- Nozzles: The following table illustrates the 4 included nozzles, along with the surfaces which they are the most suitable for.

I was very satisfied with the design and operation of the ePX3000 pressure washer. This washer was my replacement for an older competitor’s unit. The improvements: higher pressure, higher flow rate and multiple spray nozzles; and unit’s stability with low profile (will not tip over).
My first job was to clean our sandstone retainer wall from dirty black algae to light beige, done much quicker and easier than previous unit. Next will be cleaning the driveway and garage floor.
Great for homeowner.
