Hot will clean better then cold.
With regards to grass, don't lay hoses on grass as the heat from the hose will scorch the grass, with regards to flowers if they are low lying then we cover them, if we are using either a hot or cold wash.

Roger do you use a wet n dry vac with your fsc? Am going to get it on my set up...

I have a wet vac but don't use it with the FSC, only use the vac if poor drainage etc.

Mark
We water flower beds, grass etc first. If the plants are low lying we will cover with polythene. Remember to water before, during and after washing esp. on a hot day. Large bushes etc, lightly hose off any dirt that has been sprayed on to them as you go along or after washing, IE when you are cleaning up.
