only on very cold days jonny.other days 40 or 50 degrees is better as it cuts through dirt faster/easier. ;)

I've tried both mate but unless it was baked on bird mess then I found no real difference in cleaning from warm to hot.

Plus you don't go through much gas atall as it is running minimum. :)
