I have been reading all I can find and what I find is I keep going in circles and get no solid advice.
I almost hate to throw this one out there because I am going to use the words "pressure washer"
Roof washing is not my main thing. However I am fascinated by it and fully expect someone to ask me to do it someday. The equipment is specialized, expensive and I have no room for it. But, Can I not use my pressure washer to clean a roof? All you are doing is pumping a wash on there. I have some good nozzles that will shoot a stream about 30'. This is enough to reach most everything I would need to. I do not have access to 12%SH but I can get as much 10% as I want. My pressure washer is 3500PSI at 6GPM so even with a low pressure long range tip I understand it will take longer than with a proper roof pump but this is the occasional roof wash.
What else is good to use in a mix for roof wash?
Any reason I should not use my pressure washer to launch the cleaning solution up there and for rinsing?
What considerations am I missing?
Thanks
