I would be lucky to do 10-12, But I am still mastering my technique,I prefer to make sure they are rinsed well,

On average 3 bed semis you could get about 20 from a 400litre tank.

I don't have a day where i'm cleaning the same type of house but i get between 5 - 6 hours working time with 400 litres.

im gonna struggle with 350 lts in 25 lt containers then!

im thinking ill use  500 lts a day on first cleans, then if i get a trigger on pole and try the" wet brush scrub" then rinse technique on maintenance cleans and trad the odd downstairs windows then 350lt will be enough!ill carry a small DI in van for filling from outside taps if need be.

its seems to me some of you use a lot more water than others.

ill be cleaning all frames/sills/doors as standard(though some doors will be scrimmed!)

average 6 hours actually working a day.

400L lasts me a seven hour day on domestic repeat cleans. I also carry a 25L container to top up as an insurance to make sure I can finish any house I start. I use it about once a fortnight.
