imo

i wouldnt use any more than 25ft.......................
 the machine has very low pressure..............
i dont think that u would get much water lift after the clean!

but there are many better informed people on here who may express an opinion!
life is one big learning experience!!!!!!!

I have been using that machine for 15 years now and have nothing but praise for it.
I use 25ft for normal jobs but use 50ft if working upstairs.
Its a very good machine very light and simple to use i have had NO trouble with drying time also i use just one jet on the wand get fantastic results.
If at first you dont succed.......Dont try skydiving.

I use 25ft but may try 50, too heavy to carry upstairs.  Never had any probs with drying times and great results.

Need to give it a service tomorrow, any tips?

Hi

I had one for many years & would run 50 ft max with the aid of a turbo dryer.

They are a pain to empty the waste, the tap is about 2 inches above the bottom.  Need to tip and wobble it and still not completely empty.. :-[

Just tip a few buckets of cold water in there when you're done, an flush it out.
