Go by the amp rating on the machine and on the cord (Make sure the cord is rated at a higher amp than the machine)...I have a 100 foot 14 amp cord myself. If you decide on a longer cord, then I would buy one of those round cord caddies that allow you to crank the side handle in order to wind the cord up fast. I`ve seen them for about $4.00 or so.

I use 25ft but as rb said watch the amp rating on them.

i went and bought a 50FT 15A cord... ought to be enough eh.

That might just run an air conditioner



Better to be safe than sorry!

That 15A cord will definately do the trick.
