Softwashing using No Moss Soss

No Moss Softwash

1. Soft washing is an environmentally friendly alternative to pressure washing. It utilizes water-based biodegradable chemicals that emulsify dirt and grime and kills algae, mold, mildew, lichens, and bacteria. Compared to traditional pressure washing, which relies primarily on high-pressure water to remove surface contaminants.
2. Soft washing achieves a 99.8% kill ratio on surfaces, which means the cleaning lasts significantly longer, approximately four to six times longer than pressure washing. This is because soft washing sanitizes the surface*, rather than just blasting away the visible dirt.
3. Soft washing uses much lower pressure than traditional pressure washing, typically around 100 to 120 PSI for rinsing. Soft washing works without the damaging pressure of pressure washing. We do use pressure washing for hard surfaces like walkways, for roofs we use the softwashing method that prioritizes low pressure and chemical cleaning over high-pressure force.
4. Our No Moss Soss uses six different products, including soaps, chemicals, conditioners, neutralizers, and fragrances. This allows for a more tailored cleaning approach, such as the use of conditioners for fibrous materials like shingles or wood to not only clean but also remoisturize and help restore the surface. Traditional pressure washing typically involves a more straightforward application of water, possibly with a single detergent.
5. Our Softwashing system is equipped with a plant wash neutralizing system. This system neutralizes the sodium hypochloride in the cleaning solution to prevent damage to landscape and plants, and No Moss Softwash even offers a guarantee against landscape damage. This focus on environmental protection and care for surrounding vegetation is a distinct feature compared to traditional pressure washing, which may not always incorporate such measures.
6. Our No Moss Softwash trucks utilize DC electric power for the majority (80%) of its cleaning operations, including the soft wash pump and rinse system. This reduces the reliance on fossil fuels and aligns with environmental regulations. While a gasoline-powered pressure washer is present, it is intended for less frequent use, primarily for hard surfaces. This emphasis on electric power for the main cleaning functions differentiates it from typical pressure washing setups that often rely heavily on gasoline engines.

Santiago and Meshach from No Moss Softwash did an outstanding job getting the moss off my roof and the mildew off my barn. And they made sure my plants and grass were protected from the chemicals. I would definitely use them again. Chris S. Sacramentoain!
