Overview

The Hot Pressure Cleaner is a BAR petrol engine driven hot water machine rated at 4000 PSI and 15 litres per minute. A Honda GX390 13HP engine with electric start and an 18 amp charge drives a Comet ZWD4040 Italian pump in a direct drive layout, with an external unloader valve. The machine is built on a caged roll frame and is manufactured in the USA.

The listing calls this the most popular petrol engine driven hot water unit in the range. It pairs a dependable Honda engine with an Italian Comet pump and delivers hot water to 93C, which is the strong selling point: hot water at this temperature cuts through grease and grime that cold water cannot shift. A 20 percent chemical injector is included for detergent work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is this the most popular hot water unit?

The listing describes it as BAR’s most popular petrol engine driven hot water unit. The combination of a Honda GX390 engine, an Italian Comet pump and 4000 PSI hot water at 93C covers most commercial cleaning work at a price below the bigger V Twin machines.

What temperature does the hot water reach?

The listing states a maximum temperature of 93C. Hot water at that level breaks down grease, oil and heavy grime much faster than cold water, which is the main reason to choose a hot water machine for fleet and plant work.

Does it include a chemical injector?

Yes. A 20 percent chemical injector with quick assembly is included, so detergent can be drawn into the stream for degreasing and pre treatment. The machine is supplied ready to go with 15 metres of hose, a spray gun and lance with five nozzles.
