I’m finding that surface cleaners need a minimum of 2000-3000psi to even run. Is this false?

[@WesternInterlock]

We consistently run our little 16" surface cleaning unit on this exact pressure washer @1500PSI and have no issues. There may be different results with different surface washer attachments or pressure washing units.

@@WesternInterlock Thanks for the response. I’m finding other TH-cam channels saying they run 3000 psi just fine without damaging pavers. I’m so confused.

@@JohannGambolputty22 It depends on how old the pavers are. If it's a couple years old or more, you probably could use 3,000 PSI without damaging it anymore than the weathering they already have. If the pavers are fairly new, I would steer away from high pressure as much as possible.
