Water pressure and drainage will be your biggest enemy, im just learning as i go along at the minute but ive done one job where the tap flow was terrible and i must have wast an hour waiting for filling...another where the drainage was awfull sloping drive to the garage and no where for it to go. Both things slow you down, I used a gutter vac and a brush to get rid of the water but ive seen people use dirty water pumps and a gutter sucker thing that attaches to your lance.

30lpm is only going to win provided the tap pressure can keep up but you have the extra umph there if you need it so if you can afford a bigger machine why not, it seems like you are hell bent on getting one so just do it.

Am I right in thinking though that a 30lpm machine can be turned down to a 21lpm machine? Like 30 is the max, but if I use the unloader value or reduce to revs of the engine this will just bring it right down to a much lower lpm no?

[Smudger]

Basically you can do this - revs control the lpm so full revs would be your 30 lpm it it’s going to be trial and error for lower lpm

Unloader is pressure

[Adam P]

I guess this would cause an issue for nozzle size though and I'd need to change them should I drop the lpm?

[Smudger]

Yes I would say so
