Jetwave Redback 105-8 Electric Pressure Washer
Why Buy From Us
The Jetwave Redback 105-8 is a semi-professional cold water electric pressure washer built for regular domestic use. Italian-made with an AR brass triplex plunger pump and ceramic pistons, it's a step up from basic entry-level machines — the triplex pump is more durable and better suited to frequent weekly cleaning than the axial pumps found in lighter units.
It handles patios, driveways, vehicles, outdoor furniture, and equipment at 1,520 PSI, in a compact 17kg carry-frame that's easy to move and store. For a homeowner who cleans regularly and wants a machine that will hold up over years rather than seasons, the triplex pump is the feature that justifies the step up.
Is the Jetwave Redback 105-8 the Right Pressure Washer for You?
The Redback sits between basic domestic machines and full commercial units. Its duty cycle is rated semi-professional for weekly use — which makes it a strong choice for homeowners who clean often, and a light-duty option for tradespeople needing occasional pressure cleaning. If you only pressure wash a few times a year, the entry-level Raider will cover it for less. If you need a machine for daily commercial work, a professional Jetwave model with a continuous duty cycle will serve better. The Redback is for the regular-use domestic buyer who values pump durability.
Key Features
- AR brass triplex plunger pump with ceramic pistons — the triplex pump and ceramic pistons handle frequent use far better than a basic axial pump, so the machine holds performance over years of regular weekly cleaning rather than wearing out
- 1,520 PSI at 8.5 LPM flow rate — strong pressure combined with good water volume lifts dirt and grime efficiently, so patios, driveways, and vehicles clean up in fewer passes
- Induction electric motor with thermal protection — runs quietly and cuts out if it overheats, so the motor is protected during longer cleaning sessions
- Adjustable brass unloader valve with automatic by-pass — lets you control pressure output and diverts flow when the trigger is released, so you adapt pressure to the surface and protect the pump during pauses
- Total Stop System (TSS) — the motor shuts off when the spray gun isn't in use, so the machine isn't running under load between tasks, extending its lifespan and saving energy
- DIY viewable water inlet filter — the filter is visible and easy to access, so you can check and clean it without tools or complicated procedures to keep grit out of the pump
- Safety valve fitted — provides pressure relief protection, so the system is safeguarded against over-pressurisation
Included Accessories
- 8m high-pressure hose — for extended reach around the property
- Redback spray gun and half lance — with secure M22 connection
- Redback lance with adjustable high/low pressure nozzle — for varying cleaning intensities
- In-line chemical injector with strainer — for easy and efficient detergent application
