How much pressure do I need from a sprayer?

The pressure needed when spraying a liquid depends upon the product being sprayed and the circumstances in which the sprayer is used.

Many commonly used domestic products will not require a high pressure sprayer, perhaps only 3 BAR or even 1.5 BAR. However, thicker liquids will require more pressure.

Just because a sprayer can work up to a certain pressure, this does not mean that it must be used at that pressure. Some of our sprayers are fitted with specialist pressure gauges, allowing the user to choose the pressure that best suits them and the ideal pressure for the product being used.
