10 - 20 year warranty on every machine.

02 | The 3 devices
All solidly built, but with different capabilities and power.
GO
Small, light and mobile, with the same build quality and features as the Smart.
Compact enough to fit in your car, boat or van and take with you on the go.
The same engine as the Smart, but with a little less power.
Light enough to carry with ease.
Smart
The little brother of the Master, with all the features in a smaller, budget-friendly housing.
The same 3-cylinder engine as the GO, with more power.
Smaller and more compact than the Master.
Budget friendly - for a good balance of power and build quality, this is the perfect choice.
All the features of the Master, only more compact and with fewer metal parts.
Master
Uncompromising cleaning power, the top level for enthusiasts & home users.
Maximum power with its 4-cylinder engine and higher flow rate.
High quality metal parts for long life.
Long hose reel - for ease of use
Bigger, sturdier machine.
03 | Power: Cleaning power explained
What do we actually expect from a high-pressure cleaner?
Marketing focuses on 'pressure'
There is a marketing hype around "busy." But ignore it.
The "pressure" figures are not relevant to the cleaning power - any pressure washer can create high pressure, but if it is just a high pressure "mist" that does not even reach the surface of your car it will not help to get your car clean
What makes the real difference?
When cleaning cars, a high flow rate is important. More water reaching the surface of the car means more rinsing power to remove dirt.
Depending on the power of your pump, the flow rate of the machine will also change.
A high flow rate provides a strong, constant jet of water that cleans the surface of your car.
The right power for every machine
Our machines all have the right flow range, so you just need to use the right spray nozzles to vary the cleaning power depending on the task you want to do.
A 25° nozzle with a lower flow rate will give you the same cleaning power as a 60° nozzle with a higher flow rate. You will just clean more surface area of the car in the same amount of time.
In short: with a higher flow rate you can clean just as powerfully but over a larger surface. The result? A clean car in less time.
04 | Optimize your wash
All top quality, it's a personal preference:
25° nozzle
For the initial rinse of a dirty car and the areas where dirt accumulates.
40° nozzle
For pre-washing well-maintained & protected cars and perfect width for cleaning wheels.
60° nozzle
For quickly and efficiently rinsing away your foam or shampoo after washing.
Why the short lance?
From our highly recommended Nozzle & Lance Kit.
Super light and easy to handle, especially when compared to standard lances.
Only 35cm, the short length means you can be more precise, yet still long enough to reach every panel of a normal car.
Zero-force pistol
Small and light for maneuvering around details.
All nozzles, from the nozzle kit or even the standard Vario nozzle, all fit directly onto the gun. No lance needed.
We recommend using a wide angle with the gun to avoid getting soaked with water!
AVA foam lance
All AVA machines are supplied with a standard AVA foam lance.
Now that you can use foam for pre-wash or post-wash protection, find everything you need to know about prepping, diluting and foaming on our Snow Foam page.
05 | Choosing the right one for you
Everything explained simply
Budget-conscious & mobile
If you're looking for something budget-friendly and compact, the big question is: do you need wheels and a hose reel?
When you wash your car at home, the wheels and hose reel are AVA Smart very handy, and it also offers a little more power.
If you are going on a road trip and want to keep the car clean, or even if you are going boating, it is perfect to have a AVA GO to have on board or in your trunk.
Enthusiast
Your AVA Master P60.
You want maximum build quality and durability, with a machine that's powerful enough for most home cleaners.
You have all the features of the Master series - including the extra long hose and 4-cylinder engine.
This is the ideal balance between cleaning power and value for money.
High-level enthusiast
Your AVA Master P80.
You want to get maximum power from your AVA machine and work more efficiently.
The extra power allows you to clean with an extra wide 60° spread nozzle, allowing you to clean a larger surface area, with the same power you would get with a slightly thinner 40° nozzle on a P60, saving you time.
