Is pounds per square inch (PSI) or gallons per minute (GPM) more important?
Both. The PSI delivers the “punch” to a washing application, or in other words, forces the contaminant off the surface. The GPM will flush the contaminants. Most homeowners and pressure washer contractors will opt for more PSI while the farmer and agriculture needs the flow to push contaminants to the final destination.
