At that price would be enough to put anyone into cardiac arrest Kev  ;D

I told you before that if you want quality you have to pay for it but just imagine how much quicker it is to use and how much more you can get done.  If you think that's expensive you would die if you knew what they charge for their FSC's

Unless you are into that line of work in a big way to be able to fork out for falch kit and lucky enough to get plenty of good paying contracts.  Then I can't see the point in investing 40-60K just to clean domestic driveways at say 200 squid a pop do you  ;D

Now you know why we sold nearly all our Falch Kit don't you?   It was OK when we had commercial contracts but even they got to the point of trying to cut the cost to the bone then it was make a decision whether or not they were worth the bother.

The pressure & flow rate means You couldn't really use that machine to clean drives, you would need to take a massive bowser of water to compensate for the standard water flow of most households, on commercials you could use a standpipe.

But  it would be like using a Rolls Royce as a taxi.......of course it would be the worlds best taxi but a ford would do the job needed

I thought on those falch 30 lpm twin burner trailers you can adjust the flow & pressure right down. Especially when using hot on delicate substrates surely?

Your right you can alter everything to suit, pressure, flow and heat.  I used to have one of these:

but to run it perfectly you needed a 500 Bar Machine and both mine were only 300 Bar
