Thinking about using the Qinux BlastVul on some ground-level windows. Does it come with a specific nozzle for glass or do you just use the lowest pressure setting? Not trying to crack anything here.

I’ve seen a few people just use the lowest setting on glass and it seemed fine, no cracks or anything. The wide spray nozzle that comes with it spreads the water out enough that it doesn’t feel aggressive on windows. Good enough for ground level stuff without overthinking it.

Honestly, I wouldn’t overthink it too much. I’ve used mine on a couple of ground-level windows with just the regular wide nozzle and it was fine, no issues at all. Just keep it on the lowest setting and don’t hold the spray too close, it’s not really a big deal.

I mean, I wouldn’t go straight to glass with it even on the lowest setting. I tried it on a small window once and it seemed fine, but I still felt like I was pushing my luck.

I’d probably still be careful with glass even on the lowest setting, just because it’s a pressure washer at the end of the day. The wide nozzle should help spread the water out enough to not be too harsh.

I just use the lowest setting with the wide nozzle and it’s been fine on my windows so far. Haven’t had any cracks or issues.

I think people overthink this. I’ve used mine on a few windows around the house and just kept the nozzle on the widest setting, didn’t even bother with the lowest pressure. No issues at all, just kept it moving and didn’t hold it too close. Works fine for me.

I haven’t used mine on glass yet, but it seems like it would be fine with the right nozzle. I’d probably just test it on a small corner first to be safe.

I just use the regular wide nozzle on mine. Lowest setting and don’t hold it too close. Works fine so far.

[Harper J]

Wide nozzle and lowest setting has worked fine for me. Just don’t hold it too close and you’ll be good.

[T_Holloway]

I mean, it’s not exactly rocket science. Just don’t hold it right up against the glass and it’ll be fine. People act like these things are industrial sandblasters or something.

[Tara Grace]

I dunno, I kinda feel like people wing it a bit too much with these things on glass. I’d probably want something a bit more targeted than just the wide nozzle, even on low.

[Emma Locke]

Honestly I wouldn’t overthink it. I just used the regular nozzle that came with it and kept some distance, no issues at all.

[EthanFree]

I just used mine on some old basement windows and didn’t even bother switching nozzles. Kept it on the lowest setting and held it far enough back, no cracks or anything.

[techguy22]

Pretty much what I figured. Low pressure and some distance seems to be the general rule with these portable units. Good enough for me, I’ll just grab it and give it a shot on the windows this weekend.

[Rachel Mendez]

One thing I'd add, techguy22: the pressure is only half the worry on ground-level windows. Keep the spray off the seals, frames and any cracked or chipped pane, since forcing water in there is what causes trouble even at low settings. On sound glass with the wide nozzle and some distance it should be fine, but I'd still do a quick pass on one corner first like Alex Morgan suggested.
