Husqvarna Pressure Washers: Find the Right Fit for Your Outdoor Cleaning Jobs

Whether you’re freshening up a patio, washing garden equipment or tackling stubborn dirt across larger outdoor areas, a pressure washer can help you work through your cleaning list.

The Husqvarna pressure washer range at ArbSupplies includes compact models for everyday cleaning and robust options with longer hoses, durable components and convenient controls. Here’s how five models compare, and what to consider when choosing one.

Weights exclude separately packed accessories. Maximum pressure and maximum operating pressure are different specifications. Consider both alongside water flow, hose length and handling features when choosing a model.

Husqvarna PW 130: Compact and easy to store

If easy handling and limited storage space are priorities, the Husqvarna PW 130 is a practical starting point.

Its compact design and 6.5 kg machine weight make it easy to move between cleaning areas and pack away afterwards. The 6 m ultra-flexible hose is easy to handle and roll up, while built-in accessory storage keeps attachments organised.

A multifunctional nozzle and double swivel functions help you adjust your setup. The nozzle and pressure setting guide helps you select a suitable setting for the task.

Worth considering if: You want a lightweight pressure washer for everyday outdoor cleaning that takes up little storage space.

Husqvarna PW 240: Extra reach for everyday cleaning

The Husqvarna PW 240 combines a stable design with practical features for regular cleaning around the home.

Its 8 m ultra-flexible hose provides more reach than the PW 130, while the hose reel with support guide makes winding up straightforward. Built-in storage keeps included accessories close at hand.

With 140 bar maximum pressure, a multifunctional nozzle, plus nozzle and pressure-setting guidance, it offers a useful balance of cleaning performance and ease of use.

Worth considering if: You want additional hose reach and convenient storage for everyday cleaning jobs.

Husqvarna PW 350: Versatile cleaning with durable construction

The Husqvarna PW 350 brings together robust components and comfortable handling for a varied outdoor cleaning list.

An induction motor and metal pump provide dependable performance, while the 9 m flexible hose gives you room to work. Gentle and rough nozzles are included, letting you adapt your setup from light rinsing to more demanding cleaning.

Nozzle and pressure guides on the washer help you choose an appropriate setting. The low-force trigger gun reduces trigger effort for greater hand comfort during longer sessions.

Large wheels with soft tread help with transport over uneven ground. A guided hose reel, on-board accessory storage and foldable aluminium handle make packing away convenient.

Worth considering if: You want durable components, straightforward nozzle selection and comfortable handling for regular outdoor cleaning.

Husqvarna PW 370: Smart features for demanding jobs

The Husqvarna PW 370 adds digital guidance and convenient nozzle changes to a robust cleaning setup.

Its 3-in-1 Multi-Lance lets you change nozzles with one click, making it quick to move between light rinsing and tougher tasks. The 10 m steel-reinforced hose combines flexibility, reach and durability.

Smart sensors and a digital display provide product information, error indications and operating guidance. An induction motor and metal pump support dependable performance.

Large wheels with soft tread help you move the washer across uneven ground, while the guided hose reel and foldable aluminium handle simplify storage.

Worth considering if: You want versatile nozzle selection, digital guidance and a durable hose for demanding cleaning jobs.

Husqvarna PW 490: Durable construction and extended reach

The Husqvarna PW 490 combines robust pump construction with practical features for longer cleaning sessions.

A brass pump with ceramic pistons supports durability, while an induction motor delivers dependable performance. Its 15 m steel-reinforced hose offers the longest reach of the five models compared here.

Adjustable pressure and water flow let you tailor the output to the task. The Low Force grip reduces trigger effort for greater hand comfort, and the integrated 2 L detergent tank is controlled from the front panel.

Large wheels, an aluminium carrying handle and organised hose, cord and accessory storage complete the setup.

Worth considering if: You prioritise extended hose reach, durable pump construction and comfort during longer cleaning sessions.

What to consider before choosing a pressure washer

Your regular cleaning jobs

Start with what you’ll clean most often. Occasional rinsing and smaller jobs may suit a compact model, while a longer cleaning list may make extra hose reach, comfortable controls and durable components more valuable.

Use a nozzle and pressure setting appropriate for the surface, following the pressure washer instructions and the surface manufacturer’s care guidance.

Hose length and access

Think about the size and layout of your cleaning area, including access to water and power. A longer hose can help you reach further without repositioning the machine as often.

Handling and storage

Machine weight, wheels, handles and hose storage all affect day-to-day convenience. Consider where you’ll keep the washer and how you’ll move it to your cleaning area.

Pressure, water flow and useful features

Maximum pressure is only one part of the comparison. Operating pressure, water flow, nozzle options and handling features also matter.

For example, the PW 370 has the highest maximum pressure in this comparison, while the PW 490 offers a longer hose and a brass pump with ceramic pistons. The right choice depends on which features suit your work.
