Generally, if your pressure washer isn’t dispensing soap, it’s most likely because the water pressure is too high. This prevents correct suction and mixing. I recommend using a low-angle nozzle. Check the hose and tube for kinks and blockages.

How does a pressure washer soap injector work?
When a chemical or soap nozzle is used, and the pressure is reduced below this point, the ball can lift from the seat inside the injector, and allow chemical to flow. The lower the pressure, the easier it is for the chemical to enter the water stream.
Why doesn’t my soap dispenser work on my pressure washer?
Generally, if your pressure washer isn’t dispensing soap, it’s most likely because the water pressure is too high. This prevents correct suction and mixing. I recommend using a low-angle nozzle. Check the hose and tube for kinks and blockages.
How does soap nozzle work?
It’s the nozzle that creates the pressure in the water stream that hits your cleaning surface. Nozzles work because of physics. Restricting the water flow from a continuous pressure source creates more velocity (speed), which creates more force (pressure) in the spray.
How do I get the pressure washer to siphon detergent?
Make sure you are using the proper soap siphon setting or nozzle. Refer to operator’s manual for correct application. Slowly close the water supply valve while spraying the soap nozzle until suds are visible. Test for blockage: Remove the high-pressure hose from the pump and start the engine.
What is a soap nozzle?
The 65° fan nozzle, also called the soap nozzle, is used for what its name suggests – applying soap (detergent) to a surface. The nozzle applies minimal pressure and is considered safe to use on all surfaces.
How does a turbo nozzle work?
How it Works. A rotary turbo nozzle automatically spins a zero degree spray in a 4-8 inch circle at 3000 rotations per minute. The spinning water jet hits the surface area from multiple angles, quickly breaking down caked-on dirt and grime. As a result, rotary nozzles can cut cleaning time in half.
