big no no.. If con is still under warranty using a pressure washer on  it what ever pressure will invalidate it . U explain that to custy.

Rinsing off at low pressure via a pressure washer is no different than using a hosepipe connected to their tap or even a heavy downpore of rain.

Oooooh ooooh pressure washer = damage 'cos it's powerful. Nope.

well that makes sense If its no difference than a hose and tap than why not use a hose and tap  instead of extra expense running costs diesel petrol etc... U tell me how he is reducing pressure on an electric karcher most cheap ones are set pressure ??
Some finials are fixed via double sided tape stick a turbo on it and will land 3 doors up lol .... But up to U... down here we work for several local conservatory companies if we used washers dont care what pressure they wont use us... full stop ... but what do they know they only make them  Luv ya Lee!

Not every house has an outside tap. Not every house is accessible to an internal tap. Not always is the customer home for you to use an internal tap.
For low pressure without turning your unloaderor even so for a shiite toy Karcher, use a low pressure nozzle, couple of quid. If using a standard(again shiite)Karcher lance where you can't add a low pressure nozzle, get rid and buy a trigger with an M22 Karcher fitting for hose to fit to and add low pressure nozzle, either straight to trigger or to a lance.

all i really wanted to know was if anyone else used pressure washers and if so what size

[DMC Window Cleaners Ltd]

we use them. 5.5 hp petrols running 2500psi
with quick release ends we never use thin pencil jet normal use 45 degree and turn power down

the diesel unit i  have is 13hp  that i use on drives etc  i thought this would be to powerful even turned right down
so used a  electric karcher unit i think it runs at about 130 bar pressure together with a telescopic lance and a fan  jet attachment which i generally used on cladding seemed to work well

but looking at buying a new washer at the weekend
thanks for advice

we have a 24ft lance and a wfp
never had a problem with it and we have done a fair few in our time,
if you intend on pointing a jet at a seal for any length of time or under the ridge expect problems

do you use any cleaning liquid or just rely on water

[DMC Window Cleaners Ltd]

we either use tfr or viro sol depending on what needs cleaning.
and if just light green alga then just pure water
