0 John T 744 Report post Posted May 5, 2012 First of what type of Budget are you on to start out with? It would be good to have a hot water machine to be used when your need some deep cleaning and gum popping on concrete for example. But those machines aren't cheap. At the very least for residential cleaning I would suggest a 4gpm Belt driven 3000psi cold water Powerwasher with a 5.5 gpm being a more preferable choice but will cost more of course. On the first Powerwasher I would get around a 20" surface machine for it but nothing bigger. The second one which would be the prefered choice a 24" surface machine would work perfectly.
