Built for Compact Commercial Performance

Unlike oversized units that demand more space and power, the HW152EA is optimized for 120V single-phase operation, making it a plug-and-play solution for a wide range of job sites. The direct-drive system efficiently transfers power from the motor to the pump, reducing vibration and simplifying maintenance, helping users spend less time on upkeep.

Inside the protective frame sits a commercial-grade AR triplex pump, engineered with ceramic-coated plungers and a forged brass manifold to withstand tough use. The integrated unloader valve makes it easy to regulate pressure and extend pump life, while the thermal release valve keeps internal temperatures in check during extended use.

The HW152EA is designed to enhance productivity for commercial operators, allowing demanding cleaning tasks to be completed quickly and efficiently.

Hot Water Power When You Need It

Cold water only goes so far — for oil, grease, and grime, you need heat. That’s where the Wayne diesel burner shines. Fueled by a 6-gallon tank, it delivers a massive 172,000 BTU of heat to raise water temperatures up to 193°F. The burner ignites using a reliable 120V power source and is controlled with an adjustable thermostat, giving you full control of your cleaning temperature.

In addition to diesel, hot water power washers can also use fuel oil, gas, natural gas, or liquid propane as heating sources, offering flexibility for different industrial and commercial needs.

The HW152EA is a hot water pressure washer, part of a broader category of hot water power washers designed for tough cleaning jobs. The cleaning process is significantly enhanced by the use of heat, as hot water pressure washers accelerate and optimize the removal of debris and grime at a molecular level, making them highly effective for breaking down grease, oil, and stubborn residues.

The heating coil is built from 1/2” schedule 80 carbon steel cold rolled pipe wrapped in stainless steel for corrosion resistance and durability. This advanced heating setup ensures maximum thermal efficiency and long service life — even in demanding environments.

All-in-One Setup with Pro Accessories

The HW152EA includes everything you need to get to work right out of the box. BE Power Equipment has bundled this washer with professional-grade accessories:

  • Insulated Trigger Gun with lock-off for safety and ease of use

  • 5 Quick Connect Spray Nozzles: 0°, 15°, 25°, 40°, and Soaper

This full accessory kit is engineered for high-heat environments and heavy-duty cleaning — so you’re ready for whatever the job throws at you.

Portable and Rugged by Design

Weighing 316 lbs (unit only), the HW152EA is surprisingly maneuverable thanks to its 12" flat-free wheels and balanced, compact footprint.

Frequently Asked Questions about Pressure Washers

How to store a pressure washer?

To ensure the durability of your heavy duty pressure washer:

  • Empty the gas tank to prevent fuel from degrading or clogging the engine.
  • Empty the pump and hoses of any remaining water.
  • Perform necessary maintenance before storage.
  • Store in a dry area.
  • Cover.

What is a pressure washer?

A power washer is a cleaning machine that uses a gasoline engine to power a high pressure water pump and nozzle. It’s used to clean driveways, decks, vehicles, outdoor furniture and more by spraying water at high PSI to remove dirt, grime, mold and other debris.Many models also come with a detergent tank for added cleaning power.

How does a power washer work?

A power washer works by drawing water from a connected hose and pumping it through a high pressure nozzle. The gas engine powers the pump which pressurizes the water and then expels it through the nozzle at high speed to clean the surface. The water pressure is measured in PSI (pounds per square inch) and the flow rate is measured in GPM (gallons per minute).Many models also feature adjustable water pressure settings to cater to different cleaning needs. BE makes pressure washing easy with models available for light jobs and heavy duty commercial cleaning projects.

Gas vs Electric power washers?

The main difference is that a gas pressure washer, known for its cleaning power, is powered by a gasoline engine, making it more powerful and portable, while an electric pressure washer is powered by electricity and is generally quieter and lighter.

Gas pressure washers are for heavy duty and large areas due to their durability, whereas electric pressure washers are for smaller jobs.

Your BE electric pressure washer is perfect for smaller jobs and built for portability, and we offer a wide range of electric models. Included with our electric models is a long extension cord for use anywhere around your house.

What to consider?

When choosing a gas pressure washer consider:

  • Pressure (PSI): More PSI means more cleaning power but also more potential for damaging delicate surfaces.
  • Flow Rate (GPM): More GPM means faster cleaning as more water is dispensed.
  • Engine Power: Bigger engines mean more durability and power.
  • Portability: Weight, handle design and wheel size for easier to move.
  • Nozzles: Multiple spray nozzles to adjust the spray pattern for different tasks.
  • Adjustable Nozzle: Allows for fine-tuning the spray intensity and pattern for various cleaning needs.

How much pressure do I need for?

The required pressure (PSI) and cleaning power depend on the surface you’re cleaning:

  • Light duty (car washing, outdoor furniture): 1,300-1,800 PSI.
  • Medium duty (patios, fences, decks): 2,000-3,000 PSI.
  • Heavy duty (driveways, brick walls, large equipment): 3,000+ PSI.

Many pressure washers come with adjustable pressure settings to handle different cleaning tasks effectively.

Can a pressure washing damage surfaces?

Yes, a power washer can damage surfaces if used incorrectly. High pressure water can strip paint, dent soft surfaces or even cause structural damage if the pressure is too high or the nozzle is held too close to the surface. Always use the right PSI for the material you’re cleaning and keep a safe distance from delicate surfaces.

To prevent damage, consider using a model with adjustable pressure settings.

How to maintain your pressure washer?

To ensure the durability and smooth operation of a pressure washer:

  • Change the oil as per manufacturer’s instructions.
  • Clean or replace the air filter to ensure good airflow.
  • Inspect and clean the nozzle regularly to prevent clogs.
  • Drain the gas tank if you’re storing the washer for a long time.
  • Check the hoses for leaks or damage and replace them if needed.
  • Follow regular maintenance requirements to keep the washer in optimal condition.

Can I use a pressure washer in cold weather and low water temperature?

You can use a pressure washer in cold weather but it’s more difficult. The water flow rate in the hoses and pump can freeze and damage the equipment. If you plan to use your pressure washer in cold temperatures make sure to winterize it and store it in a warm area when not in use. You can also use anti-freeze solutions for pressure washers.

Some models are designed to use hot water, which can be particularly effective for cleaning in cold weather.
