A shop that sells what it fixes
American Water Works sells, builds, leases and repairs commercial pressure washers from a shop on Weidner Street in Pacoima, with a second shop in Conway, South Carolina. It carries Hotsy, Alkota and All American machines, Optima steamers, Cuda parts washers and water recovery equipment, and it builds its own trailer rigs under the Universal Trailer name.
The same shop that sells the machine services it. That is the whole idea: the people who see what breaks are the ones who help you choose what to buy.

A note from the new owner
I bought American Water Works in 2026. Before that I spent years teaching salespeople one thing: stop pitching and start asking. Find out what's actually wrong, what it's costing, and who has to agree before anything gets bought. Then decide together whether there's a fit.
That's how this shop sells now. When you call, we ask about the job before we name a machine. If we're not the right fit, we'll say so on the first call and point you somewhere better. If we are, you'll know the price, the lead time and who to call after it's delivered before you sign anything.

What are you cleaning?
Tell us the job in your own words. A person at the counter calls you and starts with the problem. Nobody pitches a machine until we understand the job.
That didn't go through.
