PWNA Annual Convention Overview


The Power Washers of North America (PWNA) sets the national standard for professional education, safety awareness, and certification training. Our mission is to elevate the industry — one contractor, one company, and one certification at a time.

The Power Washing Industry's Biggest Event of the Year.


The PWNA Annual Convention brings contractors, vendors, and industry professionals together from across North America for hands-on training, live equipment demos, certification courses, a packed trade show floor, and networking that actually goes somewhere. Whether you're looking to sharpen your skills, grow your business, or connect with the people who drive this industry forward — this is where it happens.

What to Expect

Training & Certifications

  • Earn PWNA certifications and attend hands-on classes taught by some of the most respected names in the exterior cleaning industry. From technical skills to business and sales training, every session is built to give you something you can actually use when you get home.

Trade Show

  • The PWNA Trade Show floor is where the industry comes to do business. Connect face-to-face with leading manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers — see the latest equipment in action, compare products side by side, and walk away with deals you won't find anywhere else.

Live Outdoor Demos

  • See the latest equipment running in real conditions on our Mobile Training Trailer. Live outdoor demos give you a firsthand look at what's new, what works, and what's worth the investment — no sales pitch, just proof.

Networking & Social Events

  • Some of the best conversations at convention happen off the clock. From the opening reception to the annual Corn Hole Tournament, PWNA events are designed to bring people together in a way that actually sticks. The relationships you build here are the ones that carry your business forward.
