Description
Zoom on the Westinghouse WPX4400
In a nutshell, the Westinghouse WPX4400 is a heavy duty, commercial pressure washer, which not only offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, but that also allows:
- targeted spot cleaning for hard, unpainted surfaces, reaching elevated areas, and thoroughly removing stubborn stains
- comprehensive cleaning of hard surfaces, vehicle washing, and readying surfaces for painting
- mild cleaning for delicate surfaces, and low-pressure cleaning for broader areas
- applying detergents and cleaning agents, and rinsing off surfaces
Ahead are presented its power characteristics and design, its main features and any other additional features.
Power
Powered by a powerful 420cc engine, its brass triplex pump can deliver a pressure of 4400 PSI (around 73 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 4.2 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). With these values combined, the Westinghouse WPX4400 boasts a cleaning power of 18480 Cleaning Units.
Starting the engine of this gas pressure washer involves using a conventional pull-start method.
Gasoline is stored in a fuel tank with a maximum capacity of 1.72 gallon.
Design & Handling
Featuring a wheelbarrow design, the Westinghouse WPX4400 prioritizes maneuverability and stability, ensuring smooth handling and reliable functionality in demanding cleaning applications. Built to endure, the steel tubing frame ensures the assembly's longevity by providing stability and safeguarding internal components under all working conditions. The reversible handle offers further versatility, as its different positions make the unit less bulky when stored.
At 142 lbs, this unit's substantial weight makes it quite a challenge for users to lift and maneuver, particularly on uneven surfaces where its heft can become even more apparent. The main contributors to its weight are its 420cc engine, the triplex pump and steel tubing frame. Nonetheless, the addition of two 12" never-flat wheels simplifies maneuvering the WPX4400, even across rough ground.
Main Features
Along with the Westinghouse WPX4400 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: Though lacking a dedicated soap tank, the device ensures detergent supply via a siphon hose. The Westinghouse WPX4400 is equipped with an automatic soap dilution mechanism, efficiently blending detergent to the predefined ratio of 12:1. Attachment of a soap nozzle prompts the pressure washer to automatically introduce and blend the detergent with the water.
- Pressure hose: For easy organization, the included 50 ft ⌀5/16" 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.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook allows for an easy storage of the included ergonomic EnduraGrasp spray gun and its steel wand.
- Nozzles: Find details on the 5 included nozzles and their recommended surface applications in the table below.
