Cleaning with heat can expand your cleaning capabilities. V-TUF takes essential cleaning to new levels of efficiency and speed while delivering equipment that’s better for the environment and your health. We manufacture all-in-one hot water pressure washers and separate heat modules that you can use with your existing cold water pressure washing system.
Case Study: Diana, Princess of Wales Hospital
During the winter of 2020, hospitals struggled with a surge in COVID-19 cases. The cold weather presented an additional life-threatening challenge as the much-needed oxygen supply pipes were freezing because of the low temperatures and increased oxygen flow. V-TUF responded quickly, providing our Rapid VSC to help Diana, Princess of Wales Hospital, Grimsby, defrost the pipes and restore regular oxygen flow.
Chemical-Free Degreasing
Degreasing is essential maintenance in many industries, including transport, food processing, and more. Cleaners use many harsh chemicals to break down grease, which can be dangerous for the operator, harmful to the environment, and damaging to surfaces. V-TUF Rapid Hot Pressure Washers break down and remove stubborn grease build-up chemical-free!
Chemical-Free Oil Stain Removal
Oil stains can permanently blemish driveways, decreasing the value of the property. Often, it’s hard to get rid of them without using harsh chemicals and damaging the driveway. But V-TUF Rapid Hot Pressure Washers make the process quick and easy. The combination of heat and pressure releases the oil inside the substrate, breaks it down and removes it - no chemicals or hard scrubbing are required!

Chemical-Free Chewing Gum Removal
How to clean used chewing gum off roads, pavements, and other surfaces is becoming an increasingly common and frustrating question for councils, estates and facilities managers. In the past, they have used the following methods, but each has its drawbacks:
- Scraping - is time-consuming and labour-intensive; it can also damage the substrate and leave a fatty residue.
- Chemical - dangerous for the operator, harmful to the environment, and damaging to the substrate.
V-TUF Rapid Hot Pressure Washers use steam to quickly break down the gum and remove the fatty residue, leaving cobbles and paths without a stain. Our Rapid solution can clean up 25 pieces of entrenched gum in less than a minute without using chemicals.
Chemical-Free Soft Wash Stone Restoration
Stone restoration enhances the beauty of historic buildings and memorial sites. But traditional methods, like high-pressure jetting and harsh chemicals, can cause a lot of damage to the brittle substrate and are harmful to the environment. V-TUF Rapid Hot Pressure Washers apply heat at a low pressure to gently penetrate the substrate and remove the grime and growth.
Deep Heat Sanitisation Treatment
Traditional heat treatment methods, like flaming or steaming, can be dangerous, time-consuming and expensive. Plus, they often only work at the surface level. V-TUF Rapid Hot Pressure Washers use high-volume, high-temperature water to penetrate and quickly clean large areas. The jets from the V-TUF rapid can get in all the cracks to tackle any pathogens lurking below the surface and reduce the risk of reinfection.
Graffiti Removal
Some forms of graffiti. Otherwise, unless you’ve got a Banksy, it can destroy the look of public and private places. Unfortunately, the paint is stubborn, making graffiti tough to remove. Effective graffiti removal requires a combination of graffiti removal chemicals and high-temperature water. V-TUF Rapid Hot Pressure Washers produce high-volume, high-temperature water to help treat your graffiti problem.
