H
usqvarna, one of the world’s leading producers of garden
products, enters the high-pressure washer segment with
a new electric corded range which caters for cleaning out-
door spaces of all sizes. The new Husqvarna high-pressure
washers are perfect for users who don’t just want the best-looking
lawn or hedge, but the best-looking garden overall.
High-pressure washers are a great product to efficiently clean
outdoor spaces such as verandas and decks, as well as garden
furniture, exterior walls and even vehicles. The new range of high-
pressure washers runs on electricity, for a cleaner working environ-
ment with no direct emissions.
Use less water
By putting water under extreme pressure, high-pressure wash-
ers can more effectively blast dirt and mud away – compared to a
regular garden hose using the same amount of water, translating
into up to 80% less water used than typical garden hoses.
The cleaning performance of a high-pressure washer is determined
by how the water pressure and water volume are used in combina-
tion. Husqvarna’s new high-pressure washer range has been built
to optimise water usage, using only the amount of water needed
for the task at hand. This means users can keep patios and gar-
den furniture clean with less water, as opposed to using a regular
garden hose.
Long hose and fast connection
The high-pressure washers come equipped with a long hose for
better reach – up to 15 m – making it easier to clean around the gar-
den. To ensure that the longer hose is tangle-free, a swivel coupling
has also been included to ensure that connections swivel around
the product arm instead.
Designed around user needs, the pressure washers come with
‘quick connect’, which means users simply ‘snap’ different attach-
ments or cleaning accessories in place. A full range of accessories
is offered to help users clean areas or vehicles more effectively.
Strong and durable
The exterior of the high-pressure washers is made from water-
resistant and ultraviolet (UV)-protected plastic to better withstand
different weather conditions when stored outdoors. A metal pump
comes standard with all pressure washers in the range, for increas-
ed product lifetime.
Durable wheels on the pressure washer let users easily move the
product around the working area. Being large in diameter, also
means it is easy to roll over uneven surfaces around the garden.
All high-pressure washers in the range come with two types of
nozzles: A flat-jet nozzle that lets users switch between high or low
pressure using the same nozzle, as well as a rotary nozzle that gets
rid of persistent dirt effectively.
Complete garden offering
Husqvarna already offers a variety of gardening and landscap-
ing products, from robotic mowers to hedge trimmers, chainsaws,
lawn mowers and other battery-powered outdoor products. By ex-
panding into high-pressure washers, they will now provide a com-
plete portfolio for garden maintenance, giving users the best-looking
garden in the neighbourhood.
With four tiers in the local line-up, their high-pressure washing
solutions cater for a variety of garden sizes and uses.
