Pressure Washer Nozzle Size






Helpful Tips

  • Tolerance: Rounds down if the calculated size is within 0.10 of the next lower standard size.
  • Nozzle sizes are standardized in 0.5 increments (e.g., 2.0, 2.5, 3.0).
  • Too small a nozzle = too much pressure = risk of damage.
  • Too large a nozzle = lower pressure, but safer for your equipment.
  • Match the nozzle angle to your task:
    • 0° (Red): Max pressure, for tough stains on concrete.
    • 15° (Yellow): Heavy-duty cleaning.
    • 25° (Green): General-purpose cleaning.
    • 40° (White): Gentle cleaning (cars, windows).
    • 65° (Black): Soap application, low pressure.

Misting Nozzle Spray Angle

All nozzles were tested at 1,000 psi using water at 70°F (21.1°C). The room humidity was between 40-50% during the tests. The patternation measurements were conducted using the SETscan OP600 patternator that can measure sprays up to a maximum diameter of 7″.

Flow Rate Calculator

Measure your water supply (tap) flow to size equipment correctly.






Quick picks:

Uses a standard estimate (Hazen–Williams, C=140) for 3/4" inlet hose. Supply-side only.
This measures your water supply flow. Use this value when choosing equipment—your system can’t exceed the flow your supply can provide.

Helpful Tips

  • For best accuracy, use the largest container you have and time at least 30 seconds.
  • If you measured in litres, we’ll convert to US gpm automatically.
  • Open the tap fully and avoid kinks or restrictions in the hose.
  • Supply-side only: Loss shown here is for the inlet (supply) hose feeding your equipment. High‑pressure hoses affect pressure at the gun, not pump inlet flow.
  • Using a buffer tank? Gravity-fed tanks provide low inlet pressure; hose losses matter more. Use the shortest, largest‑diameter supply hose possible.
