Introduction
If you’re not sure whether you can use a steam pressure washer just with water, then the answer is no. That’s because steam pressure washers use extremely hot water – between 212 F and 280 F. The hot water isn’t strong enough when it first comes out of the nozzle to cut through bugs or other debris that might be stuck on your car’s surface. If you try to wash your car using just cold water with a steam pressure washer, then you’ll end up spending more time scrubbing than washing.
It’s not easy to find a pressure washer that runs on only water.
You can’t use water alone to power wash. It might seem like using just water is the easiest way to get rid of leaves, moss and other dirt on your property. However, it isn’t powerful enough to remove dirt effectively. If you only have a pressure washer that runs on water and no soap, then your best bet is to mix in some soap with the water before spraying it onto the surface that you want cleaned. This will make cleaning more effective because the soap helps the water be more effective at removing grime from whatever surface you are cleaning.
Even conventional pressure washers require some soap or detergent in order to work effectively.
Even conventional pressure washers require some soap or detergent in order to work effectively. Water pressure alone is not enough to remove stubborn dirt, grease, and grime from surfaces. Instead, soap or detergent is needed to break down these materials so they can be more easily removed by the high-pressure water stream.
Soap/Detergent + Pressure Washer = Cleaner Surfaces!
However, it’s important that you don’t overdo it with your cleaning agents—if left on too long, they can cause damage to surfaces like wood and metal (which is why we recommend using eco-friendly products). So always follow up with a rinse cycle at the end of your wash job so that any residue is removed from the surface before you move on to something else!
That’s because the water is being forced at an extremely high pressure through a tiny nozzle, which means it has a hard time cutting through things.
That’s because the water is being forced at an extremely high pressure through a tiny nozzle, which means it has a hard time cutting through things. That’s why you can’t just use plain water to clean your driveway—it simply won’t work. The same principle applies to power washing with chemicals and soap, but in this case the cleaning fluid has its own set of issues that prevent it from doing its job effectively.
This is even more of a problem with steam pressure washers, which use heated water.
Steam pressure washers use hot water to clean surfaces, and the heat of the water makes it easier to remove dirt and grime. In addition to being able to clean more effectively, steam pressure washing is also used to sanitize and disinfect surfaces.
If you’re washing your car with a steam pressure washer, the water may not be hot enough to remove bugs and other debris on its own – you’ll probably need to scrub it off after you rinse the car with water.

Steam pressure washers work by heating up water at high pressures (around 3000 PSI), which creates steam that can then be used to clean. This means that any dirt or debris on your vehicle will likely be easily removed with just water alone.
Conclusion
When it comes to cleaning, water isn’t always enough. If you need to remove tough stains or dirt from your home or car, you’ll probably have better luck using a chemical-based cleaner that’s designed specifically for those surfaces – whether it’s soap and water or a special formula like TSP (trisodium phosphate).
