        Here's one. Fourth photo demonstrates usage. -- (link) - Beryllium Jun 12, 11:45 2
        
        Yeah, when I got that it draws water instead of needing a hose I got it. I would still rather use a normal unit if possible but if you can not, that - Spawn Jun 12, 11:48 1
        
        Oh for sure. On thinking about it, though, i remembered that we're not allowed to power wash the vinyl floor of the balconies :-/ -- nm - Beryllium Jun 12, 13:02
- You have to wonder how much power it has, then. -- nm - Spawn Jun 12, 11:32 5
