Types of Garden Pressure Sprayers

Of course, garden sprayers might come in different sizes and shapes. And these sprayers fall into various broader categories.

Now, take a better look at the advantages and disadvantages of each type. 

Tank Garden Sprayer

Also referred to as a compression garden sprayer, tank garden sprayer is the most common type of garden sprayer. It requires concentrated material to be added to the tank.

Then, water is added in the proper proportion. After you use a pump handle, the air is pressurized. The sprayer wand shoots the mixture out as you spray it. 

A compression sprayer lets you customize the stream from a fine mist into a concentrated stream based on the materials you will be working with and your desired results.

This style enables you to choose from smaller versions that hold up to almost a quart or extensive models that accommodate many gallons. 

Backpack Garden Sprayer

This one works like a backpack sprayer, which allows you to use your arms fully. Usually, it holds about four gallons.

This makes carrying a heavier and larger amount a lot easier and less cumbersome. Most of the sprayers would rely on a lever pump that helps in maintaining the necessary pressure without the need to remove the backpack. 

Hand Held Sprayer

These hand held Pressure Sprayer ideal for targeted dosages indoors or in the garden. They are lightweight usually hold about a litre of liquid and can be carried around easily. They are quite handy in small green houses. The ergonomic handles make them less strenuous to use for long periods.

You now have an idea of whether which type you would want to buy and use.
