Questions about Kärcher K3 Power Control

The Kärcher K3 Power Control high-pressure cleaner requires a continuous, pressurised water supply to operate correctly. We therefore recommend that you connect it to a tap rather than using water directly from a bucket or lake. The appliance is designed to operate with water pressure supplied by a tap, and using a static water source such as a bucket or lake would not be sufficient to generate the pressure required for effective cleaning.

Connecting a high-pressure washer to a bathroom sink is generally not recommended. High-pressure washers require a significant water flow rate and pressure, which bathroom sinks typically cannot provide. Additionally, bathroom sinks are not designed to handle the high pressure and flow rates required by these devices, which could lead to damage or leaks. It is best to connect high-pressure washers to outdoor faucets or taps that can supply the necessary water pressure and flow rate.

The unit must be connected directly to the water.
