    Electric pressure washer hose extention.

    So I'm looking to change my set up a bit, maybe going with an electric pw vs gas. I just can't seem to find a longer electric pressure washer hose. My gas one is 75' and sometimes comes up short. Does anyone have a longer hose or do you just move the pressure washer? Thanks!
