This translates 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 combination. All Husqvarna High-Pressure Washers come with a long hose for better reach, up to 15m, plus feature a swivel coupling to ensure the longer hose is tangle-free with connections swivelling around the product arm instead. The pressure washers come with Quick Connect, which simply ‘snap’ different attachments or cleaning accessories in place as well as a range of accessories. The exterior of the high-pressure washers is made from water-resistant and UV- protected plastic to better withstand harsh Australian weather conditions.
