Surface Cleaner

Definition

A surface cleaner is a flat, disc-shaped attachment with rotating jets under a shroud that cleans concrete and other flatwork evenly and far faster than a single wand.

Inside the housing, two or more nozzles spin on a bar, covering a wide path with uniform pressure. The result is no zebra striping, no wand fatigue, and several times the production rate of cleaning the same slab with a single tip.

Surface cleaners are sized by diameter and matched to your machine flow. Too large for your gpm and the bar slows and leaves streaks; sized right, it is the single biggest time-saver on driveways, sidewalks, and parking decks.
