How do I choose the right PSI and GPM for my needs?

PSI (pounds per square inch) indicates the cleaning power, while GPM (gallons per minute) reflects the water flow or rinsing capability. A lower PSI/GPM is suitable for light-duty tasks like washing cars or patio furniture, while tougher jobs like cleaning concrete driveways or removing stubborn stains require a higher PSI/GPM. Matching your pressure washer's power to the task ensures effective cleaning and prevents damage.
