Nilfisk patio cleaner

- Опубликовано: 7 июл 2018
- The Nilfisk patio cleaner is the ideal solution for cleaning large areas such as decks, patio’s, driveways or walls. The brush seal prevents the water from being directed where you do not want it and the rotating head makes light work of cleaning large areas. The pressure can be adjusted by means of a dial on the top of the cleaner. If you have a large area to clean the Nilfisk patio cleaner is the ideal solution as it will connect to the lance on the Nilfisk pressure washer and make light work of any cleaning.

Just bought my first Nilfisk power washer today and I'm delighted with it. Much better than my last 2 karcher models. Got a lot of done with it today with no problems. Best power washer I've ever had. Great video by the way!
Great to hear!
Thanks for the comment
One of these came with the Ryobi pressure washer I bought from Homebase a few months ago. I put it into storage thinking it wouldn't be much use, but a friend asked me to clean up her patio decking the other day so, thanks to your video, I'll give it a try. BTW, the Ryobi machine has been great so far - high quality build and a good price too.
Thanks for the comment
I also have the yellow Karcher version of this, bundled with my washer, I never used it thinking it was just for wood decks. I'll try it out on my paving!
Thanks for the comment
Like how your mate gets all the good jobs 😁😁👍👍👍thanks for the video. I bet a few drives and patios have been cleaned in this weather we are having.
Yeah, he loves jobs like this ;-)
Thanks for the comment
This is a great attachment if you have a Nilfisk pressure washer, it means you can clean a large area very quickly with the minimum of overspray, what’s better is that you can pick one up for about £30 fave.co/2J5D2lB
I hope everyone is enjoying the weather, I’m sure it has not rained here for over 6 weeks!
Have a great Sunday 😉
Great Job. Used this presure washer today on my moms paving. My sister bought it for £40 .Its done fantastic job. I did'nt relise there was a power setting. Might give it another go tomorrow. But I am impressed with it.. Again great tutorial. Many Thanks.
👍
Looked quite a satisfying task, especially the slabs.
Yes, it did a great job on the slabs.
Thanks for the comment
Had a Nilfisk pressure washer for 5 years, great bit of kit for the price. Only started using the patio cleaner last year, should have been using it from the start. So much quicker and easier, plus it uses less water which is a bonus when you have water meter.
Yes, they are great.
Thanks for the comment
Thank you very much for your video and help.
Thanks for the video. I need one of these...
You are welcome
Thanks for the comment
...off I go then to the nearest store 👍🏼👍🏼I cleaned my driveway ,pateo the traditional way with the lance and it took ages and water/dirt sprayed everywhere
These definitely make it much quicker and easier.
Thanks for the comment 👍
I was given a karcher pressure washer that came with a similar attachment. I was very dubious about how well it would work but actually it shocked me and did a great job. Not as deep a clean on concrete as a proper lance but plenty good enough for most areas. I reckon if you kept the maintenance up and did the washing a little more often it would be all you needed, and of course that's easier since it must have been 4 or 5 times faster than using a lance on larger areas.
Thanks, I'm thinking of spraying the whole outside with Jarder, which is supposed to stop any green moss etc. from forming in the first place. Hopefully that will reduce the amount of times that I have to clean outside.
Thanks for the comment
WOW GREAT VIDEO VERY EDUCATIONAL
Thanks for visiting
Great vid, cheers
You are welcome
Thanks for the comment
Applying a sealer after this time got dirty really quick after the last wash, hope the stuff works
It should do. I have resealed the drive in the past and it does normally help.
Thanks for the comment
Great video ,,I have one of these washer and attachment s ..its a great tool ....
It sure is!
Thanks for the comment 👍
Is this really any good on decking. I watched the decking cleaning you did & while it looked like an improvement it did not look as clean as you can get it with the lance? (But it was faster, cannot deny that).
Very helpful thanks. My Nilfisk arrived on Monday. Should I use detergent when using the pressure washer. I can't work out where it goes. Thank you
I’ve got a seven year old version of this patio cleaner. It’s no where near as fast as this. Reckoning they’ve improved the nozzles. If you ever find it spinning more slowly, I found that a blast of wd40 on the bearing will bring it back to good a new.
Thanks for the comment
Muy buena y simple
Gracias por el comentario
I've got the equivalent Karcher one of these, they are OK for cleaning normal grime, but for really dirty areas the normal jet Lance is better, (even if it takes longer and you get wetter!)
Thanks for the comment
No mate I rate this attachment, it is really effective, a lot quicker and easier than the lance ..if it was bigger it would even more quicker
The main advantage of the brush is you can use it without needing to get decked out for a soaking, the lance splashes water all over
Thanks for the comment ;-)
the only thing is the decking did not come out as should be same as the paving slabs some stains remain great review loved the video.
The decking was painted with decking stain last year, it flakes off after a few months, so I just cleaned it before applying decking oil.
Thanks for the comment
That looks very good. I was sceptical at first thinking the pressure won’t be god enough but it obviously does a good job. Does it need a minimum pressure PSI washer to work effectively? Although saying that it is very therapeutic with a strong nozzle blasting dirt from a patio! Thanks for the review.
I don't think it needs a minimum pressure as I'm sure it will work with any Nilfisk pressure washer, obviously the higher the pressure the better the results will be.
Thanks for the comment ;-)
And less likely to destroy the patio slab pointing. I would be interested in seeing your choice of patio repointing mortar.....it looks like she will have you doing some soon.
Not sure about that, I did buy some years ago but never got chance to use it as it always rains here (apart from the last 6 weeks).
Can't be bothered raking out the old mortar when it is this hot!
Thanks for the comment
Ultimate Handyman there is a mortar raking tool that looks like two iceskate blades that does the job well. I am sure you already know the damage caused by water ingress to the sub base and then that is compounded by frost lift. One day spent know will save you a back braking couple of weekends. I have mine planed for September.
Yes, I think you mean the Arbortech Allsaw. I'll probably end up using the angle grinder and mortar raking disc
I was contemplating ripping the lot up and having patterned concrete installed as well as the patio really needs an Aco drain installing as well!
Thanks for the comment
Nice, the one thing is these attachments quite expensive.
One question, all those surfaces you cleaned here. Were they cleaned before, then sealed by some sort of sealer?
It makes a big difference, to when you clean next time with washer.
No, none of the surfaces had been sealed before apart from the patterned concrete, which was sealed about 4 years ago (but most of the seal has worn off now)
Thanks for the comment
I got a similar patio cleaner with my Nilfisk but to be honest, I find it very flimsy and doesnt do a good job. This version may be a bit sturdier. Id still just use a nozel when cleaning decking though. Highly recommend Nilfisk power washers, far better than Karcher.
Are you sure you got the patio cleaner and not the brush cleaner?
I originally bought a rotating brush, then found out that it is only meant for cleaning vehicles and caravans etc.
Thanks for the comment
@@ultimatehandyman Thanks, no, its deffo the basic patio cleaner. The one you have does seem a lot sturdier though.
Pretty impressive for the price.
Yes, especially when you look at professional ones costing about £250
Thanks for the comment
Yes, the nozzles are angled at the floor, causing the head to rotate.
I've had two Nilfisk pressure washers now and they have been great. I have not tried Karcher!
My other Nilfisk pressure washer is about 8 years old and still going strong. The important thing with any pressure washer is to always drain them and don't let them freeze or it can damage the pump badly.
@@ultimatehandyman what model number is this? , the link isn't working
Does the water pressure in the disk try to raise it off of the concrete surface? It seems as though you would have to keep some downward pressure on the wand.
Not that I can remember, I think the jets are angled, so that they don't point directly down (which would cause lift)
Thanks for the comment
You should also tighten the collar.
I have the same one but it is under the brand "Gerni"
Makes cleaning the driveway much eaiser
Thanks for the comment
i have the compact version that comes with the nilfisk titan. problem is the rotating arm with the jets on it seizes up after 10-15 mins of use so i have to strip it down and then add some grease. is this the same problem with this attachment?
No, this version is absolutely fine. I've used this for several hours in a row with no issues.
Thanks for the comment
Do you use a soap with that or just water great video by the way
I just used water, it worked really well.
Thanks for the comment
Is this actually doing to get me as good results and just using the lance without this. Speed and splash back protection is ideal for me but i wouldn’t choose it over optimal performance. How does this compare to just using the lance up close?
It depends how dirty the drive is. The patio cleaner is great for covering a large area much faster than the lance, but the lance can be adjusted so that it is really powerful and can get the drive cleaner.
Thanks for the comment 👍
So I don't mean to be a pain but the review means nothing without knowing which machine you were using. The patio cleaner is going to perform differently depending on which machine as the pressures will affect the cleaning performance.
I'm pretty sure that it's designed to work with all Nilfisk power washers 😉
I like the outro, you make it yourself?
No, it was made by a guy on either People per hour or Fiverr (can't remember which)
Thanks for the comment
Any idea how this brand compares to others, like the karcher?
Not used a Karcher pressure washer yet. I bought my first Nilfisk from screwfix about 8 years ago and just stuck to that brand as it is still going strong now.
Thanks for the comment
Most of the consumer grade karchers we have had eventually leak or crack at the pump. Our current one has done well, not cracking by keeping it indoors rather than letting it freeze in the shed, but after 7/8 years of mild use is now leaking quite a bit from the pump.
Have heard good things about nilfisk, so might try them when this one completely gives up.
I've always found nilfisk a better product than karcher
I've not tried Karcher, apart from their window vacuum.
My last two pressure washers have been Nilfisk.
Thanks for the comment
Really ? thanks for that NILFISK is from Denmark. . two guyes started up with vacuum cleaners.s. NILsen and FISKER
Which model is this?
Anybody know if you can (and should) use a patio cleaning detergent with these and, if so, how please? Thanks!
Not sure, I know you can fit a detergent bottle to a lance, but not sure about this cleaner. Perhaps someone else will answer 👍
How was your back after doing that? Because the barrellength seems rather short.
It was fine, as I got my mate to do it, he’s shorter than me.
I know exactly what you are saying though, it needs to be longer for normal height people 👍
@@ultimatehandyman
I sometimes wonder if these companies get together and decide on which minor drawbacks each brand will do to keep sales up...
It often seem like such simple and easy fixes, but why not change it... right? (Money... I get it)
👌 can you use them on cement.
Yes, that should not be a problem
Thanks for the comment
Are you from Accrington by any chance (as I am)?
Just down the road in Darwen 👍
Can it be used on your bathroom and kitchen tiles
I doubt it as the water would go everywhere!
Thanks for the comment
Hi Guys, could anyone tells me where I can get this surface cleaner for my Nilfisk E130-2-8 blaster. Clean Store in UK is not having shipment to New Zealand and we can't find stores in New Zealand selling
Hopefully someone will know
Unfortunately Nilfisk exited the NZ market for domestic pressure washers in 2019. Try using a remailing service in the UK or look to Australia for any parts still available.
What power washer model are you using?
Nilfisk E145.4
Review here- ruclips.net/video/VAOOuDVtFLw/видео.html&t
Thankyou just watched it 👍👍👍
Is it actually any good at getting stubborn weeds out of the patio though?
Not sure. I used this the other day and had to switch to the lance to blast the weeds out from the expansion joints in the concrete, as they were quite deep, but it will remove some of them.
Thanks for the comment
@@ultimatehandyman thanks for the info! 👍
So this only works with the nilfisk pressure washer?
Yes, but other pressure washer manufactures have similar models for their washers as well.
Ultimate Handyman thanks for responding
You are welcome
Thanks for the comments
Ultimate Handyman only trouble there is that each manufacturer has their own patented connection system so there not interchangeable, like the standard garden hose connections are.
You can get adaptors though- fave.co/2KW6wEb
What's with the naff tats on your ankles mate?!
That's not me ( I don't have any tattoos), it is a mate that was helping me out. He was doing the whole front and back of house (two days work), I just filmed him in between filming other videos.
Surface cleaners are good if used with a powerful machine with a good flow rate, a device like this with a flow resistance is pointless, always use full power as dont forget you are dividing the power by 2 because of the twin nozzles.
