Good video...
my question is.......
is the cost..weight....and the amount of room that the larger hose takes up on the reel really worth it.......
I already know that at 200 continuous feet of 1/4 inch hose I am going to get a drop in my PSI.....so I just accommodate for it.....
I have cleaned some pretty nasty tile and have yet to find a reason to go over 900 psi to get the job done.....so I just set my PSI at 975 to 1000...
. I understand that but something my hose distributor won't be able to tell me is, does the average heat exchange unit have the heat reserves to handle that kind of flow?My understanding is..all other factors being equal..larger diameter gives you better heat retention, better flow and less frition loss
