reasearch the attachments you intend to use and and match flow rates and pressure accordingly. good luck !

also, anything else i need to know, or just blast away lol

[steve doyle]

is there a reason your looking at hot water?

for drives, paths etc a petrol cold washer will be more use, hot would be better for cars, machinery etc.

tell us what you want to clean and im sure we will be able to give you a few examples of suitable kit

just want to have one, the other day i had a ibc tank, with all that i can descirbe as a thick gungy grease

i sprayed degreaser on it, and left it to soak for a day, got my pressure washer out, only a little karcher but a pretty good one, it didnt even move it, didnt do anything to it!

so i was talking to my mate and he said ive got a hot one, bring it down and we'll get it shifted. took it down, blasted it and it was like melting chocolate, it just went in a instance. this is why i want one, i know you wont need hot all the time, but having that added feature would be great. i do alot of cleaning jobs everywhere, and i usually just use a bowser with pressure washer on it. but as im getting this trailer fingers crossed i may aswel get one for myself

[ALAN HAYNES]

[DREAM CLEAN]

Looking for £4k.

[LWC]

[DREAM CLEAN]

well ive got the trailer hopefully, and just wanted to get a hot pressure washer, my mates one second hand cost him £300

id be looking to spend around £500 on a pressure washer, and i have the big tank in the van for the water suply

also, anything else i need to know, or just blast away lol

yes !... you got to know what pressure is relevant for the surface, start low and increase is easier than explain why someones path is ruined !

[Roger Oakley]

Personally i don't think £500.00 is going to buy you much of a pressure washer. You want reliablity, and £500.00 is throwing money away if you are going to do this properly.

I would suggest flow rate 15 lts per min , 200 bar pressure. You would need a very big generator to run an electric driven hot washer,would suggest good quaility second hand
 petrol washer then hook up to a hot box to give you hot water about 90c max depending on spec. You will need a small gen to supply electric to run the igniter & blower on the hot box. Hope this helps my supplier is russel mapp shropshire pressure washers real good bloke,small independent company good info& prices
Hope this helps
