I use a 12  for most stuff, but in my opinion, you also need a smaller one, as a 12 and a 14 wont fit in all top lights and small windows.

Also for larger windows like shops, the bigger the better really!

Do you just change your stroke from vertical to horizontal if you have a narrow window or do you change squeegee size?

I use 22" and 18" on most of my shops. I did have a 30" allumax but I cut it down to 22" cos it was just too big to use on anything but the biggest panes.

16" , 14", 12", 10" and 4" to cover the rest.
12" and 14" seem to be the favourites for domestics....when I'm not using the water fed!
