High Pressure Water Service

High Preasure Washer

High pressure water jetting provides a powerful, environmentally safe method for solving difficult cleaning and cutting challenges.

At supersonic speeds, low volume, high pressure water delivers its cleaning power into most inaccessible areas, blasting away stubborn deposits.

High strength yet flexible lances deliver high pressure water to tube bungles and pipe interiors to clean without removing surface metals.

GFL Liquid Waste Division utilizes industrial high powered pressure washers featuring:

  • 20,000 psi water blast of interior heater coils, paint lines, press pits.
  • 4000 psi heated power washing

In combination with high quality chemical cleaning products, pressurized hot water is an effective, low cost alternative to labour intensive hand cleaning.

  • Production equipment
  • Conveyors
  • Tanks
  • Vessels
  • Production wall and floor areas
