Long driveway

8-ish, probably closer to 7. I’m debating going with slightly higher psi and wider fan size nozzles as I’m getting right at 2500psi at the gun and 200’ of hose.

Holy cow, that’s hot for resi. That’s dumpster pad hot. Most my drive thrus only about 165ish. At 200 I can watch my fuel gauge drop by the minute, lol.

Same here. I keep it around 170 for drive thrus. Any hotter is unnecessary.

180 normal, oil in driveway I bump it up a bit. It cost a little more for gas but I filter that into my flat work pricing. Usually .20 - .25 sqft. So…

Do you market that you use hot water for residential drives? If I could get a nickel more per foot I’d actually think about.

Yes, I do. People like that around here, easier for me too. They like seeing that steam or hot vapors out of the surface cleaner, I think it gives them a warm fuzzy feeling everything is getting cleaned. Which it is. I’ve been getting .25 on majority of my residential flat work, come down some on larger commercial jobs.
