BEST PRESSURE WASHER
CHOOSING THE BEST PRESSURE WASHER TO PURCHASE::
The decision as to which pressure washer to purchase can be a daunting and time consuming task. There are so many different brands and sizes of pressure washers in the UK market to choose from. If you purchase a washer that isn't powerful enough for your needs it will not be useful and will have a short service life. If you decide on a model that is too powerful you will spend more money than was necessary and could even damage the surfaces and products you want it to clean.
The following guidelines and tips are designed to help you avoid these problems by taking you through the several factors you should consider before purchasing your cold or hot water power washer.
Water Pressure and Water Flow:
Just how much water pressure and water flow (total water volume) are required to get your cleaning job done properly and efficiently? The capabilities of a pressure washer is decided by two factors, water pressure and the water flow rate. Most users only consider pressure and disregard the equally important water flow rating of the unit.
Pressure Washers can be more correctly named heavy duty power washers, since the ability of the model to clean, or its overall power, is determined by both the pressure and it's water volume.
The Water Pressure:
The pressure of a power washer is measured in pounds per square inch (PSI) and determines how much power the washer has to clean surfaces and materials. The PSI of a power washer determines how effectively dirt and debris can be broken down to the surface being cleaned.
Water Flow Of The Washer:
The water volume passed, also known as the flow capacity of the washer, is measured in gallons per minute (GPM) or litres per minute (LPM.) The flow rate is the amount of water being pushed at the surface or material being cleaned. The water flow of the power washer affects the time it takes to clean a surface. A pressure washer with a higher flow rate will take less time to clean than a model with a lower flow unit.
The following examples are some common tasks for heavy duty pressure washers and the typical pressure needed to clean them:
Car washing: 700 to 1,000 PSI
Cleaning wooden decks / house walls: 1,000 to 1,500 PSI
Heavy duty equipment and agricultural cleaning: 2,000 to 3,000 PSI
Concrete surfaces and heavy industrial areas: 3,000 + PSI
Agricultural applications rarely need more than 3,000 PSI.
A few years ago most farmers and agricultural users were purchasing 3,000+ PSI units but they have now chosen to opt for 2,000 to 2,500 PSI units that have higher water flow rates. This is because when cleaning agricultural machinery the dirt being cleaned can be removed from most surfaces fairly easily, but must then be flushed away from the surface and moved.
How Often the Pressure Washer Unit is Used:
After the choice of deciding how much power (pressure and water flow) you need to get your job done, you need to consider how often you will be using your power washer. Homeowners and DIY'ers will use their units far less often than agricultural, motor trade, builders, and general commercial users.
Homeowners / DIY Use:
Most DIY rated pressure washers are only rated for a maximum of less than one hundred hours of use per year. If you don't plan on using your unit for around one hundred hours in a single year then a DIY model might be good enough and suitable for your needs.
If you plan to use the unit more than perhaps one hundred hours per year or require the unit for commercial use then you will need to purchase or hire a heavy duy professional model. Professional pressure washers such as the Katcher Industrial Range have higher quality parts, produce more washing power and will last much longer than their cheaper DIY units. Commercial grade pressure washers will typically come with heavy duty accessories, stronger hoses and pipes and be pleasant to use for prolonged peroids.
Quality of Parts Used In Pressure Washers:
The main difference between DIY (consumer) and commercial power washers is the quality of parts used in the units construction. A common practice among some pressure washer manufacturers (especially unkown brands) is to use the cheapest parts available so they can sell their models for the lowest prices possible.
These models of cleaners are classed as ‘throw away units' and typically have no service support. This means if a problem develops with your chosen power washer you will be told to dispose of the unit and purchase a new one. So it is very important to consider the quality of the power washer in relation to its price that you are looking at.
Professional Pressure Washers:
MF Hire in Nottingham are one of the leading agents in the UK for Karcher Commercial Pressure Washers. Renowned for their reliability and service back up the Karcher range comprises a selection of both cold and hot water machines with different specifications to suit a wide selection of users.
The Karcher brand is well known in the construction, agricultural, automotive, and professional cleaning industries as one of the first choices when it comes to heavy duty cleaning machines.
The compact HDS range of power washers is one of the most popular featuring the Karcher HDS501c, the HDS551c, Karcher HDS601, and the HDS798. All of these heavy duty power cleaners are available at discounted prices from MF Hire in Nottingham.
A popular model in the Karcher range for automotive use is the Karcher HDS745M. Featuring a variable water flow coupled to adjustable pressure output this model is ideally suited for car and motorcycle valeting. This user friendly pressure washer utilises the latest in operator comfort with a "soft dampening" system and easy press trigger gun.
If you are looking to purchase a Karcher pressure washer we invite you to contact MF Hire - Tel (0115) 958 1505 before buying elsewhere, our friendly staff will help with any advice needed and will endeavour to gain your custom!

CARPET CLEANING TIPS
CARPET CLEANING TIPS::
Your carpets are one of the most important features of your home or workplace. Although not as eye-catching as any special feature or piece of furniture, a clean carpet can make a subtle difference to your home looking clean and fresh, or being dirty and drab.
A simple and highly effective tip to maintaining your carpet is to use doormats at all entrances to your home or office. It is also a good idea to have a floor mat at any transition from a hard surface onto carpet, as it greatly reduces the amount of dirt being transferred onto your carpet.
One of the most important tips in carpet care is however, vacuuming and carpet cleaning. Vacuuming should be undertaken regularly and thoroughly, particularly on areas where the carpets receive heavy traffic and footfall. The wear of your carpets is increased by the amount of dirt that is compacted into it; wet soil being one of the worst offenders.
A frequent vacuuming and cleaning prevents the dirt build up and so gives you clean results each time. The longer you leave the vacuuming, the less clean you will be able to get your carpets. Slow and firm progressive strokes with the vacuum cleaner will achieve more than hurrying, and the operator / homeowner should aim to complete four passes of the backward and forward motion over the same area for a thorough clean.
If the carpet has not been cleaned thoroughly for some time, it is most likely that your home vacuum cleaner / hoover will not be up to the job. The hire of a professional carpet cleaner from MF Hire in Nottingham can get your carpet back up to it's best standard. It is recommended that your carpet should receive a deep clean with a professional carpet cleaner every 12 - 18 months.
The hot water extraction system or 'steam cleaning' as it is known provides a good method of deep carpet and rug cleaning. A hot mix of water and soap / detergent is sprayed into the carpet pile, and then is vacuumed out by a powerful unit which recovers the water and the dirt from the carpet.
If you decide to use a hot water carpet cleaner it is important not to get the carpets too wet. The detergents should be chemically active enough so as to not require a great amount of water. Over wetting your carpets can cause them to shrink, lose their adhesiveness and all sorts of problems.
To help prepare your carpet for a shampoo or deep clean, brush the carpet first. This will make the pile stand up and loosen any surface dirt. Follow this by vacuuming and then the use of a carpet cleaning machine.

FLOOR SANDING TIPS
HIRING FLOOR SANDING MACHINES:
Most homeowners and DIY'ers start by looking up a local tool hire shop in either Yellow Pages or the Thompson's telephone directory. The category to find a tool hire shop offering floor sanders is usually - HIRE SERVICES, TOOLS & EQUIPMENT.
In most cases to refurbish wooden floors effectively will require two machines, the main floor sander, which does the bulk of the sanding and an edging sander for getting right up to the skirting boards and door frames. Some hire companies charge separately for each machine, while others will also offer a reduced rate for the two if hired together at the same time. MF Hire in Nottingham offer a reduced rate for hire of both machines as well as a special weekend rate for customers wanting to undertake the task at this time. Prices in Nottingham can vary widely - however MF Hire located on Colwick Road in Colwick strive to offer the best deal for floor sander hire in Nottingham, Mansfield, Derby, Newark and Ilkeston.
It is important to obtain the costs of the consumable sanding sheets and discs as well as the price of the machines hire. Some hire companies may offer competitive rates on the floor sanding equipment but charge more for the consumables you use. MF Hire charge the lowest for consumables as well for tool hire.
It is recommended you book your machines well in advance to ensure availability. Floor sanding and DIY is very popular so you are unlikely to get a floor sander at the last minute especially at weekends and bank holiday times. When you collect your machines or alternatively have them delivered, make sure you are supplied with a dust bag for each drum sander and if required a tool or screwdriver for changing the sandpaper.
PREPARING THE ROOM: The room ideally should be completely clear of furniture and fixtures - remove anything that could be affected by sanding dust; electrical items - tv's, vcrs, hifi's, curtains etc. If you have to sand around a sofa or cabinets, then allow for perhaps an extra days work to complete the room.Your aim is to achieve a flat, smooth clean wooden surface. It is important the floor is as flat as possible and has no high spots as otherwise the finish will wear quickly, may hold the dirt, and also become difficult to clean.
SANDING TECHNIQUES: All floor sanders hired will usually come with full instructions for operating the equipment. We recommend if you have not used one before to have a demonstration and ask any questions you may have about their usage. MF Hire have fully trained staff who are experts in the use of both drum and edger sanders and will be pleased to help in any way possible.
Different grades of sandpaper should be used, starting with a coarse grade to level and clean the wood, followed by medium to fine grades to achive the final result. The floor can then be finished with a chosen stain or varnish depending on your preferences. One important preparation step is to make sure no nails or screws are raised above the level of the floor to be sanded. If any are present they will simply tear the abrasive paper on the machine and may also damage it. Prior to starting any floor sanding task we recommend the use of a nail punch to drive the nails below the floor surface. Any screws present should be driven firmly in, again no screw heads should be above floor board level.
SAFETY: The floor sanding machines available for hire are powered by large electric motors. Safety of use is therefore paramount and the utmost of care taken. All tools and equipment supplied by MF Hire in Nottingham are maintained to the highest standard and certified where required. This ensures operator safety and reliability.
OPERATOR SAFETY: We recommend a dust mask and safety glasses or goggles be used when operating a sanding machine as well as wearing appropriate footwear. Our tool hire shop in Nottingham offers dust masks, protective eyeware, and safety gloves if required.
HOW TO BOOK A FLOOR SANDER TO HIRE: Our tool hire shop in Nottingham offers an easy system for customers wishing to hire a floor sander in Nottingham. Various payment methods are available including credit and debit card options. Typically two forms of identification are required showing the homeowner or users address along with a deposit for equipment required. Our sanding equipment fits into most cars for transportation, or alternatively we can arrange a speedy delivery service to your address.
CHEAPEST PRICE FOR FLOOR SANDER HIRE IN NOTTINGHAM: MF Hire offer the lowest prices for the hiring of floor sanders. In addition our sandpaper consumables are also supplied at competitive prices and on a use or return basis. This way you only need to pay for what you need to finish the job! Unlike other outlets we do not sell you a complete box of sandpaper unless you need it - if you only require a few sheets or sandpaper discs then thats all you will be charged for !

One important preparation step is to make sure no nails or screws are raised above the level of the floor to be sanded. If any are present they will simply tear the abrasive paper on the machine and may also damage it. Prior to starting any floor sanding task we recommend the use of a nail punch to drive the nails below the floor surface. Any screws present should be driven firmly in, again no screw heads should be above floor board level.
SAFETY: The floor sanding machines available for hire are powered by large electric motors. Safety of use is therefore paramount and the utmost of care taken. All tools and equipment supplied by MF Hire in Nottingham are maintained to the highest standard and certified where required. This ensures operator safety and reliability.
OPERATOR SAFETY: We recommend a dust mask and safety glasses or goggles be used when operating a sanding machine as well as wearing appropriate footwear. Our tool hire shop in Nottingham offers dust masks, protective eyeware, and safety gloves if required.
HOW TO BOOK A FLOOR SANDER TO HIRE: Our tool hire shop in Nottingham offers an easy system for customers wishing to hire a floor sander in Nottingham. Various payment methods are available including credit and debit card options. Typically two forms of identification are required showing the homeowner or users address along with a deposit for equipment required.
