Three Environmental Benefits of Soft WashingSoft washing offers numerous advantages as a solution for keeping exterior surfaces clean. It is sustainable and effective, and its gentle pressure means that can safely address dirt and grime on even the most delicate surfaces such as roof shingles. In fact, it can be used to keep siding, windows, pathways, roofs, fences, and decks looking their best for years.

Here’s what you should know about the environmental benefits of soft washing:

  1. Uses less water than alternative cleaning methods. While pressure washing uses anywhere from 180-480 gallons of water in an hour, soft washing only uses 60 gallons of cleaning solution (40 gallons of which is made up of water). The lower pressure combined with eco-friendly cleaning products helps to reduce the amount of water needed to provide an effective clean.
  2. Provides a long-lasting clean. Not only does soft washing use less water, but it also provides a clean surface that lasts significantly longer than other treatments. By addressing the root cause of mold and mildew growth, you’ll enjoy a cleaner surface that will not need to be cleaned again for another 2 to 3 years, on average. This also adds up to less water used thanks to fewer washes needed.
  3. Utilizes biodegradable cleaning solutions. It is easy to hear the word “chemicals” and assume an abrasive product is being used, but the cleaning chemicals used as part of soft washing are environmentally friendly. They won’t harm your building surface, the surrounding landscape, or the earth.
