I think I use a lot more water with hot. On the same controller for setting.

At one time I believed that a single operator would need 500 liters a day so the lads had 500 litre tanks in their vans.

My son now works with me (when he's not looking after the grandchildren) and he prefers to use a back pack. His water usage is much less. His rinsing time is much longer than mine by his setup time is much less.

The 2 of us probably get through about 500 liters a day. On my own I can't begin my 650 liter tank and make it last 2 days, so I use a little more than 350 liters a day.

I am much slower cleaning windows than I used to be. It's not the time I spend on each window that's much different, rather the setting up, getting about and packing away that takes the time now. Hot water might warm the pole a bit and make hose management easier but doesn't help with setup and packing away. ?
