This Hydrocell unit has been designed for trade and commercial usage.
The brand-new 17-litre Tradie Tough Hydrocell is stronger and much more robust with new fittings, thicker casting, and alloy connectors, and it includes an upgraded, heavy-duty metal nozzle.
This Hydrocell Tradie unit with 17 Litre capacity can pump five water tanks before recharging.
Never get stuck looking for a tap to connect up to again to clean that condenser, evaporator, or drain (or maybe the boat or dirtbike on the weekends - In fact, we even have customers using these to wash down their horses in the Equine industry).
The Hydrocell 17-Litre Pressure Washer with a built-in 12v rechargeable battery pack will help you clean in those hard-to-reach spots.
Perfect for cleaning condensers out on rooftops in hard to get to spots and for the boat and motorbikes on the weekend! No more unrolling hoses and looking for a tap near your worksite, fill up, and you're ready to go anywhere.
The improved features include an alloy water outlet and tougher brass spray nozzle, with 7
Metres of hose plus protective hose clamp.
Extra seals have been included along with the many other standard features, such as wheels on the base and a padded shoulder strap.
These new units have a 12V three Metre power cord for situations where more power is required. The sealed lead-acid battery will give operators at least five tanks of water before the battery requires a recharge.
Hydrocell has revolutionised how air conditioning technicians conduct maintenance work, and this new unit will be another step forward, providing a super robust tool that will last.
The first initial charge is 4 hours, with subsequent charges approx 1 to 2 hours. Approx 30 min continuous use.
It can be used while running off your 12V cigarette lighter power socket in your running car or can connect to our Back Up Power Pack via its 12V port in built into its handle. The supplied wall charger can also charge when not in use.
Pair this unit with the BRAND NEW Hydrobag for a complete split system cleaning system.

FAQ
The pressure can vary from 43.5 to 130.5 PSI as you adjust the nozzle according to your washing preferences. This pressure is similar to that of a fixed garden hose. Perfect for cleaning the family pet or the salt from your boat while on the go or when giving an air conditioner a deep but gentle clean on-site.
What sort of running time can I expect from my Hydrocell's battery?
Appox 30mins running time on a fully charged battery.
Can I charge my Hydrocell Washer on the inbuilt 12V car charger?
Hmmm, yes... you could - but we wouldn't recommend it! Your 12V car charger is designed to use while your unit is running.
Here's why; Your standard wall charger is 240V and can charge your battery from flat to full in 30mins max. Understandably, the humble 12V car charger is much slower. If you'd like to do this, though, you sure can. You will need your car engine on/ideally running to get a decent charge, so if you had a 2+hr drive ahead of you, you're all set.
Can I run detergents through my Hydrocell tank?
No! Detergents in the tank will rot the seals and void your manufacturer's warranty.
However, it's okay - check out our 'Accessories' section of the website. You'll find our Detergent Gun, compatible with all Hydrocell Washers and made specifically for getting detergent where you need it.
How much water will I need for a cleaning?
This is variable, depending on what you're cleaning and the pressure setting you're using. However, as a guide - you will consume 1.5 Litres of water per minute.
Can I use the wall charger as a continuous power source while operating the Hydrocell Washer?
Our Hydrocell Washers are designed to be portable, so unfortunately, no, you can not use the washer while plugged into the wall. You can, however, use the 12V car charger as a continuous power source while the Hydrocell unit is in use. Or you can purchase the 12 V backup battery from our Accessories section.

It was easy to set up and surprisingly didn't leak at the water intake area like I assumed it would.
