You will always use more water on first cleans.....and once you get used to it , you will save loads of water..

I can make 300 litres last me all day. :)

Have you got a trigger/tap to turn off water between windows? If not get yourself one !!!

I would normally do about 20 4bed houses with 30 litres on normal cleans so 10 for 1st cleans isnt overdone.

I did 14 jobs today and used 350Ltrs    I always use plenty and always give them a thorough rinse

better to use to much than not enough

200 litres will last me a seven hour day, the most I ever used in a day was 250.

I think its normal on 1st cleans. It will only be 6 months or so down the road (when you've checkd the results next time round), that your water useage will drop.
But i use the same depending on house. Upto an extent, the higher flow rate means quicker work and a shorter day.
Don't worry about it.
