Default enough psi in a powerwasher for 3 story house cleaning of siding?

Curious what most have found to be enough psi for a 3 story house to
clean the siding? (I think around 35 feet to the peak)

IE: I've looked at some electrics that max out at around 1600 psi,
while the gas ones are around 2200 psi or higher...

I was thinking electric would be the easier one with less maintenance
etc.. but maybe not enough power?

Here are two models in particular:

Sistema 10102 CleanJet 1400 TSShttp://www.amazon.com/Sistema-10102-Cleanjet-Electric-Pressure/dp/B00...
1400 psi, 1.4gal per minute, electric;

or

Briggs and Stratton 2200 psihttp://www.amazon.com/Briggs-Stratton-Gas-Powered-Pressure-Washer/dp/...
Gas powered;

Thanks


Actually here is a better electric, psi wise:

Karcher 1800 psi 1.5 gallons per minute
