General Pump TriKleener Deluxe Professional Water Broom w/ 3 Nozzles (2700 - 4500 PSI)

I purchased this Trikleener from Pressure Washers Direct.com in order to pressure wash larger areas, such as driveways, patios and parking lots. It has not disappointed me!

The Generac model 6595 I purchased from Pressure Washers Direct does a fantastic job with the hand held wand on it's own. But, if you need something that will cut your work time down, the TriKleener is a must have. It is a sturdy built unit that has a wheel height adjustment.

The stainless steel distribution chamber will give you years of maintenance free service. You can use a blank nozzle tip in order to reduce the cleaning area in tight places, etc.

I highly recommend this unit. In fact, a friend of mine borrowed my TriKleener in order to pressure wash his large concrete area, and he loved it!

And I can't say enough about the people you deal with in customer service at Pressure Washers Direct.com.

Washer only sprays from two nozzles. Checked for blockage but found none. While the rolling action is nice, the performance falls far short of expectations.

Super tool for cleaning all surfaces.

Product worked great. Didn't really know just how dirty my concrete was.

Highly recommended.

Item does not spray from all 3 nozzles and streak concrete just as using a wand does. While it is more comfortable, cleaning is not as good as with single nozzle wand.

I used in an underground garage. Slowed me down and really didn't perform like I expected.

I have between 6 and 7 thousand square feet of concrete driveway and a 13 HP 3600 psi Honda powered Pressure Washer so I needed something to help speed up the cleaning process. A couple of years ago I switched from a conventional wand tip to a turbo tip from PWD and it sped things up a lot. I really love my Turbo tip because of the versatility if gives my pressure washer.

The TriKleener I recently purchased really sped up the cleaning process. I found the TriKleener to be quality made and effective at cleaning my concrete drive.

I did, however, have to adjust the three white spray tips attempting to get it to make a clean sweep with a single slow moving pass. Maybe I still don't have it adjusted properly but I never could get the spray tips and height adjusted so as to eliminate the need for a second pass for total cleaning. I found the best method was to use short 3 or 4 foot strokes on the concrete always cleaning with the sweep marks on the surface of the slab. (My drive has a broom finish on it)

There was always a narrow line (1/8"-1/4") of dirty slab if you slowly rolled it across totally uncleaned areas. I soon learned to compensate for this by using an overlap method much like using a vacuum cleaner on carpet. The TriKleener was very effective at pushing the debris out front and away from you just as shown on the company video. On this count, I consider it far superior to the Whirling head cleaners that cost several hundred dollars and leave the operator standing in a pool of scum wondering if the area you just covered is completely cleaned.

On a technical note I think maybe the manufacturer could eliminate this skipped space mentioned above by offsetting the position of the center spray tip on the manifold so that the left and right extremities of the spray patterns of the individual adjacent spray tips do actually overlap rather than striking each other. If I am not stating this issue clear enough, think of the blade pattern on 3 blade riding mowers where the center blades are offset to allow overlap yet not striking each other as they spin.

I have demonstrated the performance of my new TriKleener to several friends and each of them were very impressed with its performance. Please do not misinterpret my above comments as derogatory as I am trying to point out to the manufacturer how they can perhaps make their great product even better.

I am very happy with my new TriKleener!

Thank god someone has designed a durable product that meets more than the advertising hypes. I highly recommend this product to all my friends and family who have large areas that requires pressure washing.

Prior to this product I would spend almost a full day- now less than a half a day. My only recommendation: I am adding an adapter for my larger hosed 2600PSI pressure washer. The quarter inch and the three nozzles reduces output slightly. This was the only reason I did not rate it with all 5 stars.

Regardless of my pet peeves it is still a dynamic product at a fantastic price!

To clean my concrete driveway took 2 days, now I will have it completed in about 4 hours.

This is well worth the money. If you're doing concrete cleaning for a living you'd better get one.

The TriKleener comes with three nozzles, but insufficient instructions are provided on whether the nozzles are compatible with a given pressure washer of PSI/GPM rating. Furthermore, there is no disclosure in the specifications on TriKleener’s website (www.trikleener.com) nor Pressure Washer Direct’s website of the size of the nozzles included with TriKleener. Such information appears to be buried in the Parts List in the Operator’s Manual that says that the nozzle is .65 X 1.35. My interpretation of this information is that each nozzle has a spraying angle of 65 degrees and its size number is 1.35.

The size number of a pressure washer nozzle, by convention, is equal to the GPM flow rate through that nozzle at a pressure of 4000 PSI. The appropriate nozzle size for a given pressure washer with PSI/GPM rating is given by the following formula:

S = (GPM/N)*Square Root of (4000/PSI)

where

S = Nozzle Size
GPM = Gallons per Minute
N = Number of Nozzles on Device
PSI = Pounds per Square Inch.

For example, for a pressure washer rated 3100 PSI/2.7 GPM, the appropriate nozzle size for a three-nozzle device is 1.02. Since the nozzle size of those that come with the TriKleener is 1.35, the pressure washer should work fine without any damage to the pump. Note that use of a nozzle size smaller than 1.02, in this example, would either cause the pressure washer pump to not work or, worse, damage the pump. When only two nozzles are used on the device, as recommended by TriKleener in tough cleaning situations, the above formula produces a nozzle size of 1.53. Since the nozzle size of those that come with the TriKleener is only 1.35, it’s possible that the pump may not work or, worse, the pump may be damaged when only using two nozzles.

As another example, for a pressure washer rated 3000 PSI/ 5 GPM, the appropriate nozzle size for a three-nozzle device is 1.92. Since nozzles only come in certain sizes, a 2.0 nozzle size should be used. Note that use of a nozzle size smaller than 1.92, in this example, would either cause the pressure washer pump to not work or, worse, damage the pump. When only two nozzles are used on the device, the above formula produces a nozzle size of 2.89, so a 3.0 nozzle size should be used. This example represents my pressure washer. Note that TriKleener’s 1.35 nozzle size is smaller than the calculated 1.92 when three nozzles are used and the 2.89 when only two nozzles are used. While the TriKleener worked with my pressure washer when using three nozzles, excessive PSI was created and put a slight strain on my pressure washer’s pump. When I tried using only two of the 1.35 nozzles, my pressure washer’s pump would not work at all. I had to buy additional nozzles for the TriKleener to work properly with my pressure washer, i.e., 2.0 size when using three nozzles and 3.0 size when using two nozzles.

The Operator's Manual that comes with the TriKleener says that it is "Recommended for units with pressures of 2500 to 4500 PSI." This recommendation is silent on the unit's GPM, which as indicated above is an important factor in determining appropriate nozzle size. The Trikleener website gives a different, inconsistent message: "Recommended for pressure washers with a minimum of 2700 PSI and dispensing 4.0 GPM or more."

Before purchasing the TriKleener, I contacted Pressure Washer Direct to inquire about the size of the nozzles that came with the Trikleener, They responded that they didn't have that information and suggested I contact TriKleener directly. I sent more than one message to TriKleener asking for that information but NEVER received a response.

The TriKleener is a quality, well-built product at a reasonable price. However, until TriKleener provides more information on the appropriate nozzle size to be used with a pressure washer with a given PSI/GPM rating, I cannot recommend the TriKleener. It is important that purchasers understand whether or not the “one size fits all” nozzles that come with TriKleener are compatible with their pressure washer. Otherwise, the pressure washer may not work or, worse, may be damaged by using such nozzles.
