Monumental task
January 1st 2006

Kärcher has restored to full glory the President's heads etched into the side of Mount Rushmore, USA.

The company worked closely with the National Park Service and its rangers and has announced a long-term commitment to take on the preservation of this monument, carrying out regular inspections and cleaning operations in collaboration with the NPS.

Simon Keeping, UK managing director, says "The Mount Rushmore project ran according to plan. Five diesel-powered Kärcher HDS 1000 DE hot-water pressure washers, through which about 7000L of water were pumped every day, performed without a hitch over the whole period.

"They were lifted by helicopter and placed immediately behind the heads at the beginning of the project and were exposed to the elements for four weeks.
