Cleaning hospital Beds is it better to pressure wash or Steam to kill Germs.?

It depends on whether the patient prefers water or steam.

steam (autoclaving)

perfect for sterilization

Pressure washing will only blast the germs all over the place. Heat is what you need to sterilize. Good luck!

I would think steam because of the Hot water. You could use as much pressure wash as you want, but the Hot water in steaming is a good form of sterilization. I would suggest steam!

Hope this helps!

definitely steam

Steam..come on what is that doing pushing dirt around.

Power wash is the best way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

pressure wash merely washes things away,

steam would actually kill germs.

A mixture of pressure wash to clean off all the hard stains, and then steam to sanitise

Definitely steam, pressure washing would only be effective as a rinsing step.
