Good Afternoon,
I'm new to the pressure-washing world and I was wondering if I can get some help in terms of getting the right amount of water pressure needed for commercial and residential work.
At the moment, I have a 2.5gpm pressure washer. I've been told that I don't need a buffer tank as I can just draw straight from the customer's mains. However, when I use my pressure washer I can see the hose literally shink a little bit, suggesting that I need more water to draw from.
So would a buffer tank be the next step?
Also, can you (and how can you) use both the customer's mains AND the buffer tank?
Any information or advice would be greatly appreciated as I'm trying to learn the trade.
Thank you.
