This foundational course introduces learners to the essential principles and practices of pressure washing and surface cleaning. Designed for aspiring technicians and entry-level professionals, the course provides a comprehensive overview of pressure washing equipment, surface types, and cleaning techniques used in residential and commercial settings. Students will explore the core components of pressure washing systems, including pumps, motors, hoses, and nozzles, and learn the differences between gas and electric units, cold and hot water systems, and soft washing versus traditional pressure washing. Emphasis is placed on selecting the correct tools and techniques for different surface materials, understanding spray patterns, and operating equipment safely and effectively. Through real-world examples, visual demonstrations, and interactive lessons, learners will gain the confidence to identify appropriate equipment, avoid common surface damage, and prepare for more advanced hands-on training. Learning Outcomes: By the end of this course, students will be able to: Explain how pressure washers function and identify key components Compare electric vs. gas-powered and cold vs. hot water units Differentiate between pressure washing and soft washing, and know when to apply each Select appropriate nozzles based on spray angles and surface requirements Apply basic safety procedures when setting up and operating equipment This course is a prerequisite for advanced training in surface-specific cleaning, troubleshooting, and fieldwork assessment.
