Hey guys! I was wondering if you lose pressure by adding several hoses to add length from pressure washer to spray wand? Does this go for the same with the garden hose? Also what is the diff. with chlorine vs. clorox when it comes to cleaning? We have been using bleach to clean vinyl, concrete,etc.


Thank You!

the longer a hose and the smaller the diamerter, the greater FRICTION LOSS. Also some/most downstream injection wont work after 300 ft.[depending on your PSI and GPM]
Bleach or chlorine is sodium hyperchlorite SH
BLEACH IS ABOUT 6% SH
CHOLRINE IS ABOUT 12% SH
BOTH HAVE A SHELF LIFE and should be kept out of sunlight.
Friction loss if from water rubbing the sides of the hose.
For supply i would'nt use anything other then 3/4"
it's OK to loose some pressure at the tip but it's NOT OK to have a low water supply.
DONT breath in SH, it can really hurt you,wear a mask.
ANOTHER THING-TRY SOME PRE-CARB BLEACH.
OXI-CLEAN type stuff [you can get it much cheaper then oxi-clean]
it's way safer and works on most stuff.
It's powdered and no more jugs to lug from k-mart.
